Turns of Fate (Isle of Wyrd #1)

Between Stone and Sky

Take a step into the unknown

And learn who you are:

Past experience all that you own

In this place, and afar.

So this passage between

Stone and sky begins

A journey to truth, now,

Or a vengeance if your sins

Have gone unanswered. How

Can you grow without

Shedding old selves, serpent-mind,

As you choose hope not doubt

And focus on the kind

Of new beginning you wish

To have beyond this arch,

The place you belong, your need a dish

Served in this moment’s march

Into moon’s embrace.

Your heart will make the measure of this place.

—Jennifer Crow, translated from the Arcana language
