Allora heard Revos sit up and stretch. Her own body longed for sleep but she had not moved from Mitchell’s side in the hours since he’d lost consciousness. She watched and waited, still holding his hand. Lethalin still slumbered, her soft snor...

Chapter 12

Allora said nothing for a long moment and then he saw something that he hadn’t seen in weeks. She smiled. It was a real smile and it transformed her face. It was like a mask she was wearing had been removed and he was seeing her true self and it...

Chapter 11

Mitchell awoke again when someone nudged his shoulder. He blinked his eyes and saw Lethelin standing over him. 

“Rocen,” she said. 

Mitchell knew that one. Wake up. 

He nodded to her and, once she was satisfied...

Chapter 10

Allora disappeared around the other side of the wagon and Mitchell lost sight of her. He didn’t know why, but he wanted to go after her and apologize. He reminded himself that he didn’t owe her an apology. Still, the desire was there, nonethel...

Some minutes after the screaming had stopped Mitchell and Allora returned to the other side of the wagon. They saw Lethelin sitting cross-legged a short distance away staring out at the horizon. From the front of the wagon, the clorvol started mak...

Chapter 7

Mitchell looked at the carnage around him and didn’t quite know what to think. On the one hand, these men had abused them, kept them in cages, and were taking them to their deaths. But, on the other hand, they’d just been brutally killed. Well...

Chapter 6

Mitchell’s leg was bouncing and he tried to will it still for what felt like the thousandth time. Without the manacles, Allora was apparently able to use her magic. She’d cast the language spell on him, although it appeared to exhaust her to d...

Mitchell felt himself falling.

“No, that’s not right. I’m flying. Holy shit, I’m flying!”
