CHAPTER FOURTEEN

The Sword of Aeneas

Madoc simply stood there, looking at John, Jack, and Chaz with a stricken expression.

“I know you,” he said in wonderment. “We have met before.”

“Yes,” John said, feeling a strong twinge of compassion that he had to fight to keep down. “And for what it’s worth … we’re … I—I’m sorry, Madoc.”

Jack’s mouth dropped open, and Chaz just looked at the others as if they were all insane. But Madoc stared back at John with that same plaintive expression. He really didn’t understand what had happened.

“Why?” he asked.

“Because of who you will become,” Jack said bluntly. “You needed to be Bound.”

“That’s not what I was asking,” Madoc replied, looking over his shoulder. “Why did Meridian do that? Why did he use Old Magic on me?”

“To protect the Grail,” Jack said, “and the rest of the world.”

Madoc’s demeanor was so confusing to them that Jack, and even Chaz, were beginning to soften.

“Protect the Grail?” Madoc said, clearly perplexed. “That doesn’t make any sense.”
