The way he and Jule had talked to each other, like long-lost enemies, reminded her she didn't know much about her father.

Maybe her fear of her father was wrong.

When my father gets here, he'll kill you both!
Her body was stiff from her father's blows, her blood racing.
Jule wasn't what her father said he should be.

She waited until Moira's footsteps faded before dialing her father.

Unlike her father, this creature was capable of sympathy.
Whatever had happened, the man before her was hurting still, like she did when her father hit her.
She just had to convince her father to tell her what that was.
She'd never suspected the depths of her father's strange power, and her first attempt to channel it was the reason the house was now lit with candles.
Her father released her hand and gazed at her for a long moment.
Her father touched her arm, and fire tore through her.
Muddling through the sensations, she sensed her father's magic.
She sensed Jule, her father, and hundreds—no, thousands!—of tiny signatures surrounding them.
She could now feel everything around her, and she assumed whatever her father unlocked was the cause.
Jule's eyes glinted with the magic in his body, and the air around him shimmered in a different power than that of her father.
I couldn't … I didn't know my father did this.
I'm sorry for your loss, Jule, but my father, he's all I have.
He spoke the truth, just as her father lied to her.

She stepped away from the monument amplifying her magic and followed her father.
Resolved, she trailed her father down the hill, through the people who couldn't see them, and to the awaiting car.
She steadied her breathing, swearing to herself that these would be the last to die at her father's hands.
She checked her weapons with scrutiny that would've made her father proud and dressed in dark clothing loose enough for her to fight.
Her father returned around noon, his agitation apparent the moment he stepped in the door.
Yully grew more anxious the nearer they got; her father was right about the magic feeling stronger.
Her father flung open the door and strode up the incline.
Her father hadn't taken the time to bury these people.
Her father dragged half a body from the center of the site to the edge.
Her father returned with a bag slung over his shoulder.
Her father moved to the center of the monument and looked around.
You promised not to kill him if I cooperated, Father.
You made the one who can stop you fall in love with you instead, her father said.
She faced her father, not expecting to see the small crowd of people on the other side of the monument.
Her father stood near her in the center.
