Besides, if I wish to be part of the investigation, I cannot stand out.”Ĭristina held back from telling Mark that there was no world in which he didn’t stand out.
“I cannot have the Blackthorn coloring, but I can look as much like Nephilim as possible. “I want to look like my family,” Mark said. “You don’t think I look like a Shadowhunter any more?” But maybe it was all the same thing: maybe it was all love, in the end. Cristina had always thought Emma fought for her parabatai and for revenge, while she fought for family and faith. The rose for Rosales, the words for Raziel, the Angel who had created the Shadowhunters a thousand years ago. Blessed be the Angel my strength who teaches my hands to war, and my fingers to fight.
