Once she reached the edge of the village she broke into a run, and kept running, faster and faster, feeling Morgan’s hot, hungry breath on the back of her neck. Ran until the birdsong gloom of the Black Woods swallowed her completely. Until her mage-sense stirred and told her: Here, Barl. Here.
Panting, exhausted, with Morgan outrun for the moment, she dropped to the cool, damp, leaf-littered ground. Felt the mountains, towering above her. Felt the gentle song in Lur’s bones. Felt the magic, waiting inside her, desperate to burst free.
And then she felt a strange peace wash over her, like the brief touch of a gentle, loving hand.
“Yes, Remmie,” she whispered. “I’m ready.”
And drew her first blood-red sigil on the cool, waiting air.
