The morning sun drenched the rolling hills of Greenhollow in golden
light, illuminating the thatched rooftops of its small stone cottages scattered
among the rolling hills. My boots crunched on the dirt path as I made my
way into town, nodding to the few early risers going about their morning
chores.
I loved this time of day. It felt like the gods were shining approval on
our small community, a mere blip on the map of the Kingdom of
Falcondale.
In the Torrach Realm, where fae outnumbered most other beings,
kingdoms were aplenty. I’d heard there were enormous cities and
breathtaking sights of fae creation across all the realm, and that dozens of
sects had contributed to create harmony and balance.
Though curious, I had no desire to seek out such sights. I was safe and
self-sufficient here.
Why would I ever want to leave? I thought to myself as the sunshine
warmed my skin.
I had the Quinn family to thank for my contentment. They’d taken me in
when I was young, a scrawny orphaned girl with nothing to my name but
the clothes on my back and the tiny parcel of land my parents had left me.
They’d helped me cultivate a handful of acres until I could handle all
fifteen of them on my own. Over the years I’d formed bonds with them, as
strong as any kin. Stronger, even.
There wasn’t anything I wouldn’t do for them, especially Sofiya.
Speaking of, I should have come across her by now. We always did our
weekly shopping together.
My best friend was the pure soul who first showed me kindness in this
place, and I owed her more than I could ever repay.
She’d convinced her mother, Brigid, to let me live with them until I was
old enough to stay in my parents’ cottage alone. For five years they kept me
in their home and begged me not to move out when I’d decided it was time.
Sofiya had been a light when my world had turned dark.
I spotted her sitting on the steps of the stone fountain in the center of the
square, her chestnut waves spilling over the pale green shawl wrapped
around her shoulders. Even from a distance I could see the worry etched
into her delicate features.
Something was wrong. My pace quickened as I strode over to her, boots
kicking up dust with every step.
“What is it?” I knelt down, taking her hands into mine.
I quickly scanned the area for any signs of danger. The usual morning
crowd was sparse.
A few clusters of fae were scattered along the walkways that lined the
storefronts, quietly whispering to one another. The village was eerily quiet
for this time of morning.
Then, l spotted what was surely the source of her anxiety. I hadn’t seen
one of them in years. I nearly forgot how fearsome they could look.
“Why are they here?”
Sofiya bit her lip, amber eyes flickering with fear as they met my own.
