she doesn't want to let go of Mytho and her role in the story.
BINGO! Ahiru wasn't selfless about the Mytho thing. She did it because it made her feel better and less lonely. In a way, she did exactly the same Rue and Fakir did, while she began more selfless (as a duck), the story "corrupted" her. The first one to let go is Rue (ironically), then comes Fakir (when he rushes to help Ahiru) and, finally, Ahiru.
