Cecily's mistakes had nothing to do with Elora.
Marie figured that being so hard on the younger generation of the Snowdens might make her seem petty, so she allowed Elora in the next day.
Shannon hadn't expected this to have anything to do with Ziva. Now that Zane was relaying Ziva's words, something felt subtly off. Even if she believed Elora was innocent, would she really say something like "She should be forgiven"?
It sounded more like a final judgment than an empathetic statement.
For some reason, Shannon thought of what Cody had said about meeting a girl he'd encountered. Back then, the girl had told him that he'd become stronger, and he did.
Then, there was the girl who'd taken her life at the comic convention. She'd also heard a similar tone back then, saying, "She will die."
Shortly afterward, the girl who'd been taken down had indeed died.
If the same person had spoken all these words, Caleb being so invested in Ziva wouldn't be that simple. Shannon could only think of one explanation for the ability to determine a person's fate by words alone—the power of words.
Words spoken would eventually be manifested. That was truly a divine power bestowed by the heavens.
If Ziva did possess the power of words, this situation would be more complicated than it seemed.
First of all, why was she approaching Caleb? Yes, approaching.
