Torene looked up in horror, realizing the depth of her folly. "Oh...Makoru...I am so sorry.  I should have..." she hesitated, not sure how to gentle the answer. There was no way.

"You gave it to me, over two years ago.  Makoru, Iman is dead.  She has been dead many years."

(I can't remember who killed her.) (Sorvus arranged it, Revan tracked her down, and the Alik'r killed her. In Revan's defence, he didn't know it was her until she was dead. As for the circlet, I just assumed. Apologies.)

Jack frowned and waved the company over. "Paris! Raelynn! Byran! C'mon, we've gotta go!" he hollered, frustrated that they wouldn't hurry up and get over here.

Makoru was silent for a moment, the blood draining from his face. When he could finally speak again, his voice was quiet and reserved. "Torene, how many years have passed? How long was I in that wretched place? And what happened in the times before then?" he asked. It was hard for him to grasp all this, but the more he thought about it, the more it made sense. But on the other hand, he didn't want to return home to find a stranger on the throne. He awaited an answer.
