The first two paragraph from Blood Healing, chapter 1: The loud and jolly celebration of my fourteenth birth day two nights prior still rang in my ears like a haunting song. The party had been wonderful, but the undercurrents of sorrow and grief lingered like a persistent cough. Snow fell, making the road to Meligna city in North Senya an obstacle course for my horse as it stumbled over hidden rocks and branches. Winter had encrusted every tree, shrub, and rock with ice. My loud thoughts disrupted any silence that the insulated wilderness might bring. I feared what awaited me. I feared never returning home again. I feared that Klawdia, the Ruxdorian woman who’d protected me, would die at the hands of her people.
