[Sabriel digests all of this, not responding for a few moments as she lets the implications sink in. Can't go home. Can't leave. What would happen to the Old Kingdom then without an Abhorsen? Who would be the one to stop the Dead from preying on the people who lived there? If there were no Abhorsen, necromancers could wreak havoc unchallenged, enslaving hundreds... And Touchstone...what would he do? He was the rightful King. There was no way he could repair the Great Charter Stones alone, or much else without her help. How would he restore order?]
Has anyone ever made it back to their homes?
[She can't really accept that there's absolutely no way out. She just *can't*.]
