If Ari's life continued on a downward spiral it was only a matter of time before Ari snapped. What would happen? She would answer the siren's call and unleash her fury just like her mother.
Ari's mother had been stubborn and pretended that she had everything under control. When she had eventually become overwhelmed by her emotions, it was too late for anyone to stop the madness and Madeline had succumbed to her grief and insanity.
