Chapter Two

Rion stood at the edge of those ominous trees. He peered up into the thick boughs, closed his eyes, and absorbed the strong pulse of magic that seemed to leak from the roots.

Ancient.

He’d researched, but Rion had never found anything about the forest’s origin. It had been dark and forbidden since the day the Fae arrived on Alastríona’s shores. Perhaps the magic was a direct result of something their ancestors had done. Maybe they’d dabbled with something beyond their control and kept it from the history books to hide their failure.

Rion gazed up and down the stark line that separated the smaller trees from the looming giants before him. Not as tall as the redwoods, but still menacing in their own right. He glanced between the trunks. Thick fog rolled along the ground, kissing his boots and disappearing. A line. There was some sort of magical line here, but he couldn’t explain it. He hedged a guess no one could.
