Two years. Jesus Christ, I'm so sorry. That's really terrible.
[ Two years ago was when Gansey first came to Henrietta. The thought of losing everything before that - England, Wales, every country he'd trawled through, every scrap of earth he'd searched. Malory. All of it, gone in an instant. He'd feel entirely lost.
No wonder this boy doesn't mind dealing with the loss of a few months. Gansey immediately stops complaining about it. Compared to what Newt's dealing with, he has no right at all.There's magic in my world, yes. Not everyone can see it, and in fact not everyone is aware of it. I spent a long time looking for it, but the wonders are there. Once you know where to look, you'll start to see them. Even if you can only observe, and not participate. My home is built upon what's called a ley line. Essentially, it's a concentration of energy, and people with magic in them tend to be strengthened there.
But that's getting off the point. That's a rather large collection of monsters designed to drive us back, don't you think? There's two ways of looking at it, I suppose. One presumes that someone is deliberately keeping the monsters there, to stop us from looking in the tunnels. The other is that the tunnels really are a dead end, and so there's nowhere else for the monsters to go. It could even be a combination of both, I suppose.
