Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who is Ari?

Answer: a witch

Ari is the youngest of three witches who lived at Brightwood.
2. Tir Alainn is disappearing into mist.

Answer: True

Tir Alainn is disappearing into mist because the ones who anchor it to the world, the witches, are being killed.
3. What race are Lucian, Dianna, Lyrra, Aidan, and Falco?

Answer: Fae

All five of those characters are Fae. They each rule a specific gift and have another animal form they can shift into.
4. Who is the Witch's Hammer, the Master Inquisitor?

Answer: Adolfo

Adolfo calls himself the Witch's Hammer because he is very good at convincing villagers that lone women are witches so that he can persecute them and force them to tell everyone all the "bad" things they've done to justify execution.
5. What is Morag's title?

Answer: the Gatherer of Souls

Morag is Fae and the Gatherer of Souls. That means she can take someone's soul while they are still living (kill them with her gift).
6. What are the Pillars of the World compared to and what are the Pillars of the World?

Answer: Branches of the Mother, witches

After Ari tells Aidan that she has heard of the Pillars of the World, he compares the Pillars of the World to the Branches of the Mother. Ari knows that the Pillars of the World are witches (her grandmother read it in the family journals and told her) but she does not tell Aidan because she guesses that he can figure it out on his own.
7. Who does Ari really love?

Answer: Neall

Ari loves Neall, not Lucian, so she agrees to marry Neall and go with him to the land his mother left him when she died.
8. Who of these people do not die by the conclusion of the book?

Answer: Ari

Royce is burned to death by Lucian. Ahern is burned and dies because of this. Meredith is already dead when the book begins, she drowned. Ari is hurt but survives.
9. Who dies to save others near the end?

Answer: Ahern

Ahern dies to save Ari and Neall and give them time to escape. Royce dies but not to save anyone. Lucian almost gives his life in exchange for Ari's. Morag is not even harmed.
10. Ari and Neall escape the Inquistors.

Answer: True

Ari and Neall escape the Inquisitors and go to live in the West.
