Thanks so much on filling us in on how, and where Aoife survived. We was worried about her. Five Stars.
Best story found on this site for a long while. Exceptional writing and history work by the author.
Aoife and Declan indeed did cross paths once. I remember thinking that when he decided to go to Dublin if she had also? Now we know! This is the one time this kind of interlude of a chapter is well-placed, as now it explained why Declan never saw her until 7 months later--she was in the convent for 6!
You detail her doubts, thoughts, pain and grief quite well, to the point we feel her doubts, vacillations and conclusions. 5
