Chapter 59 – Zélie
“How will me coming back to Lagos solve any of that?” I ask. “As we speak, your father calls for my head!”“My father’s scared.” Inan shakes his head. “He’s misguided, but his fear is justified. All the monarchy’s ever seen is the destruction maji can bring. They’ve never experienced anything like this.” He gestures to the camp, face alight with so much hope his smile practically glows in the darkness. “Zulaikha created this in one moon, and there are already more diviners in Lagos than anywhere else in Orïsha. Just imagine what we could accomplish with the resources of the monarchy behind us.”
A message I take from this scene is that Zelie is hesitating whether she should bring back the magic or not or come back to Lagos with Inan to help her solve the problem and rebuild Illorin. She is worried that maji cannot control their power and hurt innocent people and more people will be in danger because of the magic and one the magic come back this can be another reason for The Raid to happen again.
