   Summary

   The Travelers all go their separate ways, but for the Apothecary her story continues as she chases the remaining fragments of her forgotten past. With unanswered questions about her identity, she sets off on a journey of her own, hoping to find answers about herself, Eir's Apothecaries, and the nature of the relationship between her and the woman who saved her life.

   Thus begins the Tale of Castti Florenz and her pursuit of closure.
