Another time Quote by Lauren Kate
““Then the Announcer would transform: into a screen through which to glimpse the past-or into a portal through which to step. This Announcer was sticky,but she soon pulled it apart,guided it into shape. She reached inside and opened the portal. She couldn't stay here any longer. She had a mission now: to find herself alive in another time and learn what price the Outcasts had referred to, and eventually,to trace the origin of the curse between Daniel and her. Then to break it. The others gasped as she manipulated the Announcer. "When did you learn how to do that?" Daniil whispered. Luce shook her head. Her explanation would only baffle Daniil. "Lucinda!" The last thing she heard was his voice calling out her true name. Strange,she'd been looking right at his stricken face but hadn't seen her lips move. Her mind was playing tricks. "Lucinda!" he shouted once more, his voice rising in panic,just before Luce dove headfirst into the beckoning darkness.””
