What did Mal say yes to at the end of Impossible Creatures?
What Mal said was “Yes. Yes, I say yes, I say yes” (334), referring to every part of what the Immortal must remember. With these words, she indicated that she wasn’t like Marik. The novel concludes with a bestiary (a guidebook of beasts) that describes the various animals of the Archipelago. As for the unhappy Marik, he died young and at sea, so I guess he got his comeuppance. In the present day, the Immortal is a twelve-year-old flying girl named Malum “Mal” Arvorian, and I have zero qualms about revealing that because the reveal – if it can really be called a reveal – was not even close to a surprise.
