Chapter 66 – Inan
Father stands in his night robes, scanning a faded map. No sign of hatred. Not even a hint of disgust.

In that instant it hits me: Zulaikha’s death. Zélie’s screams. They don’t mean a thing to him. Because they’re maji, they’re nothing.
This message can be compared to what happened 71 years ago, which was the apartheid. This is because of how cruel they were treated and how many of their deaths meant nothing to the English and Afrikaaners.
