New Post - Dhavalos

10/04/2011 08:38

 The next installment is up - it's the continuing adventures of Dhavi! It might seem like life at the Ankorite monastery would be quiet and serene, a life of peaceful reflection. It is, and that's the problem. The young acolyte Dhavalos can't seem to sit still or focus on his holy duties. His mind is always wandering, dreaming up adventures and wishing for something exciting to happen. However, something is about to happen, with Dhavi caught right in the middle. Soon enough, Dhavi may regret his wish...

 

"I got to my feet, my spine prickling and my chest closing back up despite the Ephedra. This wasn’t right; something was deeply out of place here. Wrens were never silent; they chattered away non-stop like a group of little old grandmothers talking about their in-laws. I looked around in earnest now, worried that there might be a bear or some other danger, but they didn’t seem spooked. Just quiet. Even when I took a few steps toward them, they didn’t move or so much a twitter. As if they were doing it on purpose. As if they were waiting for something."

 

To see what happens, read on to "Gift of the Light".                 And as always, keep checking in for new additions to the story! New sections will be posted more-or-less weekly.

 

Happy reading!
