Chapter 214: Foolish Pride (2)

Inez closed the books that she had collected. She wondered if she could ever finish the ancient hymns written by the goddess of healing herself. When she picked up the task, she thought, –Oh sure, it’s going to be as easy as eating a little pie. After all, she was a siren; this should be in her blood. Only now did she realise that it wasn’t that simple.
