In Chapter 21, work has piled up, and Bardia is sick in bed. Arnom says its is merely old age, but Orual is certain his wife is keeping him from the palace. Orual finishes her book and asks the reader to choose between her and the gods, who have given her nothing in the world to love but Psyche, then stolen her away without revealing her fate, and, when Orual guesses wrong what has happened, punished Psyche through her.
