since when you have the key to the Speckled Tree, you can choose whos gonna get the fever and whos gonna die from it? Doesn this sort of make the holder of the key like Death himself?
Yes. When you have the key to the Speckled Tree, you are a very dangerous person. Entire magician families have died out because of people who have abused the responsibility to be the tree’s controller. William currently knows where the key is; I, as the author, wished it was with the pixies instead. I don’t trust William with the key, and the pixies have been reliable for thousands of years in the magicial community for keeping most things under control (even though the vendetta problems have gone beyond what they could handle).
