Blades Of Illusion: Crown Service #2 - Plot & Excerpts
She could see that the healer’s focus was no longer on her. It was on his patient, with the steady gaze of a man confident in his work. Sara backed off. She didn’t think she had much choice, and besides, she believed him. She believed he knew the cause of Ezekiel’s ailment, as well as the cure. She could only hope that this would be enough, because she didn’t have anything else up her sleeve except more threats. And while threats might give her the satisfaction of seeing someone quiver, it wouldn’t bring Ezekiel back from the brink of death or save any of the other poor, stricken souls around them. After a few moments the man drew his hands back and said, “The infection has spread and is perilously close to dragging him through death’s door.” “We already knew that,” Sara sniped. The healer threw her an unreadable glance as he said, “Did you also know that the only way to cure these unnatural afflictions grafted to very natural predators by Kade mages is also through a natural remedy?”
