Re: Quentin Coldwater & Michelle Webster
"I'm unaging," Michelle said, "immune to disease, and I heal from pretty much anything, very quickly. Even lethal injuries."
"Like your magic, you have to be born with it. And I was, though I never knew of it until I died--and then woke up in a morgue. Fortunately, a friend was there to explain it all to me."
Not that she'd listened. God, she'd been a silly, selfish brat. Her childish attempts to seduce Duncan could still make her blush to think about, and she'd refused to take seriously his insistence that she learn to fight. Not until she'd been kidnapped and used, and Duncan had killed the guy right in front of her. Then it had been all too real.
Michelle blinked and pushed the memories aside. "Anyhow, that was--and remains--the only magic I ever witnessed in my world."
