= <span style="color: #FFFFFF !important;">Chapter Forty-Three: A Name Unearned</span> =

Glimdrem and the Edan, including Inslok and Limereu, endure a grueling four-day run to reach the Touched’s tomb, seeking answers about closing the Celestial Gate in Istinjoln. The Touched, in an unusually direct yet cryptic dialogue, reveals that Limereu could have closed the gate before her transformation by the Father, but now only the demon Queen Mother, Zwinfolkum, or an even greater power could shut it by relinquishing her hold. The Touched hints at the Dontupûor’s role in creating the Queen Mother and their lingering presence, possibly linked to the Boboru or Ritikôn, while dismissing Inslok’s queries with playful scorn. As Glimdrem delves into the Oxeum Codex, he uncovers the White Eyes’ divine manipulation by pantheons, including Sol, who blinded them to enhance their mysterious abilities, though their purpose remains obscured. When Inslok’s frustration peaks, drawing his sword, the Touched freezes all but Glimdrem for nearly a month, allowing him to study and ponder his Trelelunin identity and the vine’s cryptic suggestions of his origins. Released, the group learns the Silone are nearing Istinjoln, prompting a hasty departure as Glimdrem grapples with newfound doubts about Edan omniscience and his own unearned name.
