Sarissa nodded, but she wasn't entirely convinced. Even if there were someone who could do something about the Mantle, what could they do? Remove it from her? Then where would it go? To the nearest appropriate host? Sarissa would just be condemning that person to the same fate as she had now. Destroy it? That would throw off the balance of nature. Repress it? Same - especially if Molly showed up again, or - worse - Maeve.
"Someone has to wear the Mantle," she said quietly. "It might as well be me. At least here. I wouldn't want to wish it on anyone else."
