"There's no shame in not knowing any more than that, yet," Hecate said softly, watching the pain on Marcie's face. "The turmoil you've been through this year would split and darken anyone's path. But I think there's wisdom in your choices. Take your time at your old home to rest, to be taken care of, to show Kaden a different sort of life. I think you are too determined to get stuck somewhere you don't want to be for too long, and when you return, we can work on your intentions together, if you like," Hecate offered. "You decide what you want out of life, and I'll help you find the path to get it."
