Now it was done. He was free of Xanth forever. Free to make his own life, without being ridiculed or mothered or tempted. Free to be himself. Bink put his face in his hands and cried.

Now it was done. He was free of Xanth forever....
About This Quote

In the 1991 book, "The Last Unicorn", written by Peter S. Beagle, the main character Bink is a unicorn that was captured and put in a zoo. Eventually, he breaks out of his cage and wanders around the city by himself. He feels lonely and hurt because nobody cares about him or believes he exists.

He goes to a park to find an old lady who tells Bink, "Now it was done. He was free of Xanth forever." In other words, he could finally be himself without being ridiculed or mothered or tempted by evil crowds.
