The Fates have blessed you with a mate. His name is Prince Soren
Celestial, heir to the throne of the Southern Lands, and your union will
unite a shattered kingdom. The bloodshed that has ravaged the Southern
Lands shall end, the lands shall be restored, and the old ways shall be
honored once more.
The Fates will guide you to him when your heart is ready.
As waves lap the sides of the Shepherd, I ignore all the eyes trained on me
and enjoy the last moments of my journey home to the Southern Lands. It is
the last peace I may know.
Returning to a kingdom ravaged by the evils of my own kind is not a
path I’d ever have chosen for myself, but the Fates have made their
demands of me. Surviving the war in the Northern Lands taught me the
catastrophic but unavoidable lesson of what befalls a kingdom when a fate
is broken, and while my heart is anything but ready, I know it’s time to
return home as surely as I know the songs of the forest in my heart. No
matter how far I traveled, the sorrow of the trees never left me, and I long to
see them once more.
It took months to unravel myself from the life I had built, time to be
discharged from the Sol Army and to train healers to take over my work for
the Seelie Court, to convince my friends and family that the Fates could no
longer be ignored and that I must do as they’d bidden. But as the peak of
summer crept closer, I made the last of my preparations and found myself
passage on a ship. By some act of the Fates, it was the same vessel that
carried my brother and I north two hundred years ago—a sign if I ever saw
one—and I began my journey back to the kingdom that was once my home.
The Shepherd constantly travels the waters between the two closest
high-fae kingdoms, mostly carrying cargo but with room for travelers as
well. Old but well maintained, with a small crew of fiercely trained sailors,
she’s provided a concern-free voyage home. I paid for and received a cabin
all to myself, an easy achievement with very few fellow passengers on
board.
No one wants to journey to the Southern Lands anymore.
I’m dressed in simple clothing, nothing fancy or restrictive. It
distinctively marks me as a witch. The silver pins that hold my cloak
around my shoulders and the bands of fabric around my torso are nothing
more than fastenings, no ornate nature to them at all, but as the sun glints
off them, they make what I am clear, even though I have no telltale
markings on my face.
