Assassin's Shadow (Veiled Dagger Book 2) - Plot & Excerpts
He jumped off Stormbringer and ran to the door, knocking urgently. Harwin answered quickly. “Harwin! The herbs that Ariswold gave you, did you give them to Esme yet?” Harwin looked confused. “No, not yet, why?” “Can I see the pouch?” Rothar asked, relieved. “Of course.” Harwin retrieved the small leather bag. “I was wary about giving it to her. Ariswold said to dissolve it in water… or smoke it like tobacco. It did not seem right to me, Esme being as little as she is.” Rothar dumped some of the contents of the pouch out into his hand. It was a coarse powder, black as night. He rubbed it between his fingers, and it broke down like dried leaves. He sniffed it. It had the same odor as the pipe that he had pulled from the charred devastation of the castle stables. “What is going on, Rothar?” asked Harwin. Rothar caught Harwin up on all that had happened since he had left Taria in the Banewood.
