With her help, Fhang was able to travel to the human world and pass on the special art of using the flute to his friends.
Perhaps it will stand alongside established schools of magic, such as gravitybearing and fleshbearing, or perhaps it will remain a niche. That is something that only the living can influence. He has played his part.
After a couple weeks, he was eventually caught and brought back to the underworld.
With his past now behind him, Fhang seeks to find a new goal — becoming a renowned gladiator in the Crusher sector.
Not only did Phrai delivered her message, she also nudged Fhang’s master into sending him to his preferred sector as well.
While Xil and him rarely meet, they do write letters to each other once every few months. Apparently there’s quite a few people there that also have arcane knowledge of music like him.
Grace was also punished for her involvement in the escape. It took a few months of being moved around several sectors but she was eventually sent to the Black Lines sector as a advisor for caring for the steel beaked crows.
She seemed to be slightly better mentally, with all the crows keeping her company. At least there’s a few wardens that also share her interest.
The Kodachi ship was relocated after Xil left the Great Sorrow. Wan and Nin returned a fragment of the teleportation circle to the frail man. Apparently the ship teleported somewhere outside the sector and its location remains unknown ever since.
