It should be. I’m writing on an iPad, which means autocorrect saves me a lot of trouble but it also means it sort of arbitrarily mixes up from and form. Like, usually I typed pretty quickly and it results in something like froam. Them autocorrect changes it and since from and form almost look identically I mostly don’t catch the mistake. Might happen a few times every once in a while. There are a few other examples. Nigh and neigh, then and than… pretty much everything that looks awfully similar.
"Listen, I know I'm not exactly in the loop but I figured a few things out on my own. Your obviously in some kind of feud with the Pirate King and, whatever happened before, you can rest assured he wants your necks as well after what you did today, incidentally, mine as well if he even knows I exist. The three branded buffoons are you best shot at getting any from of reliable information. Kill them if you will, but make them talk first. Hells, it can't be that hard with how much magic you have at your disposal, maybe you can even break the rune!"

Well, she is feeling guilty, so… :)
"Please, don't do that again. You took me to the space in between, between worlds and realities, the void. You might survive there but for me it's a damned nightmare. It sucks away my life for as long as I'm in there without ample preparation." Her voice became a little stronger. "It wasn't that bad just now but you could very well have killed a weaker fey. Think, Cassandra and don't just try every idea that pops into your mind when you're not alone! We're not all some kind of magical anomaly." She was right, without a question. The image of holding Ahri in my arms again had pulled me along but that was no excuse. I had been an idiot and I should have known better.

Right you are
"Oh, the same… your dad had a really sick sense of decorations, though. I thought stuffing Viyara into a ruby was a one time thing, but…" my voice trailed off.

Hah! I always wondered if no one recognised the… it’s not really a quote since only the first two lines are identical, but let’s call it a homage. I had already feared games of culture had fallen out of grace. And no… I honestly didn’t think of Cassandra Pentaghast when I made up Cassy’s name. The whole Pendragon thing should be clear by now and Cassandra is taken from Greek mythology. Her name has quite a bit of meaning and it’s not chosen arbitrarily, even though I like the sound of it very much.

So much anger, young Skywalker…
"It's not only your blood, but you," the old dragon replied. "The secret of how to have draconic offspring with another species rests within you, I don't even know it in its entirety. I've provided much of the necessary knowledge, but the only one who can lead us to the whole truth is you. For us, that's much more important and a war between lesser species, maybe even more so than that you've met an immortal and what she's done to you. Even if it's known that you're protected by either me or an angel, your guardian will have to fight many duels before it sinks in that you're out of bounds. You're valuable enough that many will risk death to get their claws on you."

Cool. If you want me to explain anything, just drop a comment. Maybe I’ll tell you to wait for a few more chapters, since the explanation will come, but in general I also try to stay away from all the times whimsy esoteric explanations. It’s magic often works for me :P On a more serious note, that whole story and become pretty massive so I might have forgotten some necessary explanations. Do tell if anything seems weird or wrong.

There should also have been a description somewhere in the book. Come to think of it… more ham once, actually :) But yeah, that’s Cassy on the cover
Ahri - Aurora: Cassandra's fiancée. She betrayed Lucifer in their previous life and is sworn to protecting him in this one

Yah well, great power, great responsibilities and even greater problems. Seriously, though, since I can hardly make her bleed once she’s developed a bit further,unless she’s faced with another immortal, she’s got to learn one very important lesson before she becomes to strong to get kicked around like a punching ball: no matter how powerful you are, it might take nothing but a single mistake or a bit of bad luck to end your life. So having her hover on the brink of death a few times is just my way of having her learn :) Also you might have noticed a slight increase in power when it comes to her enemies. A curse and constructs of magic, then a dragon and now a nigh transcendent prison and its inhabitant. Won’t get much worse than that, at least not on this world.

It’s a lil bit hard to try explaining without knowing what actually got you confused :) So…. I’ll try with some context. Spoilers ahead: Time is breaking down. She’s switching between different time streams, or rather seeing the possibilities that could have occurred if they had acted differently at one point or the other. That’s also why she acted erratically in camp. In other words, several… alternatives are colliding and she’s more or less cutting her way through reality to,switch between one and the other. Hope that helped, if not, just tell me what has you confused, but some explanations are in the chapters ahead… if you don’t want to get spoiled wait until they leave the to,b again. I’ll gladly answer anything that’s unclear by then.

She has changed quite a bit. A description is in one of the following chapters. It’s a hint towards her development, one she hasn’t picked up on, preoccupied as she is.
"To cut a long story short, Aurora and I laid waste to the capital and in the depths of the citadel I confronted their leader. Which didn't quite go as I had expected. She was not much older than you appear now, maybe 18 or 20, and while her blood tainted the floor she told me what had really happened. It wasn't them, they had indeed found Airu but they had never laid a hand on him. It was Michael who had slain him and sent me afterwards to kill the witnesses, knowing full well I would believe whatever he was going to tell me." I wanted to interrupt but with a placating gesture he continued.

Thanks, gonna edit it :)
"What's the fuzz all about? Did you succeed? Congratulations!" Ahri said when we reached them. She had been listening in as well, I was sure of it, but it was common courtesy to pretend that we didn't eavesdrop.

That’s a typo. Should be plait as in hair plait.
"What happened to your hair? It's gone, a part of your plate is gone. You look like a scarecrow!" She turned to Ahri: "By the great fox, what has she done now?" Behind my mum's back I smirked at Ahri and mouthed the words: "defend me". She turned slightly pale but replied smoothly:

I’m writing not painting or hammering commands into an ai interface, sorry :) I might post a map somewhere down the line but that’s already frustrating enough. If you want to, you’re very welcome to try your hand, though. Also… you’ve got a picture of Cassy and that took me hours to get :/

You’re very welcome and thanks a ton for the praise! I’m glad you’re enjoying Cassy’s story. As for the ending, well, if I truly wanted to write everything I had planned originally, we’ll be here for quite a while still. As the title might insinuate, I originally meant to write about the conflict between immortals but we haven’t even gotten there, yet :(

Yep. It was a glorious movie, wasn’t it? Especially KB1
With an increasing effort I commandeered my sluggish mind to take up the fight and move my wings. I didn't know why but somehow my oxygen deprived brain conjured up the image of a tall blonde in a hospital gown who repeatedly said: wiggle your great toe! A task that appeared more and more difficult by the second. With an herculean feat I got back on track, time stream, right.
