Book 1 Chapter 43
Posted on August 11, 2008 by Aywren in Book 1“Heellloooooo—” -lllooo -lloo -lo AsaHi grinned in delight as her voice echoed back at her from the cleft below. It’s not such a spooky place now that I can see it in full. In fact, Dragon’s Cleft was rather inspirational. The fissure was so wide that the other side was only a hazy blur. The [...]

Book 1 Chapter 39
Posted on August 11, 2008 by Aywren in Book 1Coming back to the ground was a strange sensation. SoYa felt somehow more heavy-limbed and uncoordinated. Though he couldn’t understand why, back in Ceiswyr, his mind seemed more agile and light, and he found himself missing it the moment he stepped foot on the ground. There’s something about that place. It’s strange at first and [...]

Book 1 Chapter 35
Posted on July 25, 2008 by Aywren in Book 1It was a smudge. It turned into a blot. That turned into a spot. That turned into a Mark. That turned into a puddle. That turned into a pool. That turned into his reflection on the still, inky darkness. He was standing on it, staring at the world upside down. It passed him by, never [...]

Book 1 Chapter 34
Posted on July 25, 2008 by Aywren in Book 1Because something about you called to me. Lord Zemi’s words to AsaHi echoed in SoYa’s mind. He pondered them and scoured them for their true meaning. Try as he might, he just couldn’t figure out why a single statement could make him feel so uncomfortable. That and the fact that Lord Zemi let AsaHi scold [...]

Book 1 Chapter 32
Posted on July 25, 2008 by Aywren in Book 1AsaHi watched with a distant frown as the blue rift-glow returned. She sat perched on a rock next to a waterfall, a place she returned to more and more often. This was the most secure and comfortable spot for her to retreat to as of late, especially since she had been left on her own. [...]

Book 1 Chapter 31
Posted on July 25, 2008 by Aywren in Book 1SoYa sat bolt-upright in bed, a haze of sweat and fear clouding his eyes. “Just a dream!” he gasped. “A dream! It couldn’t be real, it was all just a…” His voice wavered, grew weak and faded. “Dream…” No. I’m still here. He was sitting in the white-gray room, in the white-gray structure, in the [...]

Book 1 Chapter 28
Posted on July 24, 2008 by Aywren in Book 1Father! Emotion pulled SoYa in many different directions. Joy at seeing his father’s face again. Deep concern at watching the strange transformation sweep over his brother. And growing fear at the deep thundering darkness that rose up in the east, blotting out the stars.

Book 1 Chapter 25
Posted on July 18, 2008 by Aywren in Book 1Another twilight draped across the land, the end of a long day of riding. Though SoYa had no way of measuring how far ahead they were from those who may be following, they were all too tired to ride any further. He built the fire low and sheltered, deep within a thick forest glade. There [...]

Book 1 Chapter 14
Posted on May 15, 2008 by Aywren in Book 1AsaHi stood knee-deep in the cool flow of the mountain stream, holding the heavy wet cloth of an apron-turned-fish-net. Her green eyes watched the darting flashes of silver fish under the surface of the clear water as they scattered away from her shadow. The girl lunged forward, sweeping out with the makeshift net. For a [...]
