They promised themselves it would be this one last time. Each decided, separately, that this would be the last time, and then they would break off their secret little dalliance. One wants to pursue a more legitimate form of romance, and assumes the other wants the same, while the other is ashamed of the feelings he has developed for his sister, fearing he will drag her down into becoming scum with him, spurned by society for their forbidden love.

With all that in mind, will Terramar and Silverstream actually be able to quit each other? Or are they doomed to continue repressing their emotions, using each other as a security blanket?
