Chapter Three

Two days later, Rion wiped the sweat from his brow and plopped into one of the wooden chairs outside. He propped his feet up on the stones surrounding the unlit fireplace and leaned back. He could hear Caol rustling around inside, likely prepping lunch. Rion knew better than to offer his help. Caol treated the small kitchen like a temple. No one else was allowed to touch his utensils.

It also didn’t help that Rion had nearly burned the cabin down when he was a youngling. It was a poor attempt at making lunch. Apparently grease didn’t mix well with fire.

White clouds passed by at a snail’s pace. He had the day off today, aside from the chores he’d just finished. No training, though Caol hadn’t made him do much after chucking a staff into his stomach. The bluish color that had spread across his ribs was just beginning to fade.

He let the tension fall from his shoulders and closed his eyes. The spring air washed through him, pleasant and welcoming.
