The River She Became (River & Salt #1)

Epigraph

* * *

My mother told me life magic used to pass freely between our land and the faes’, like the current of the River that divided us.

Until the wall was erected, cutting us off from them.

And the invaders came.

And our crops died.

Our people starved.

And magic leaked out of our country like the drip in the rotten board of a ship.

Until nearly all the magic was gone.

All except mine.
