Dancer's Lament: Path To Ascendancy Book 1 - Plot & Excerpts
He received orders to join a foraging party assembling in the pre-dawn hours on a north section of the Outer Round. Here he found Shalmanat, cloaked, her head wrapped in cloth and veil, awaiting him among a crew of their regular scouts and scavengers. They were let down the wall by rope then jogged off through a maze of burned hovels. ‘What of the Kanese?’ he asked as they ran. ‘They do not chase these parties. I believe they hope to encourage deserting.’ Then Shalmanat raced off, and proved a tireless runner. Silk struggled to keep up. The path she chose took them past the churned dirt of one-time market gardens to surrounding burned fields, and then on to the open plains. Here the land lay gently rolling – uncounted leagues of unbroken grasslands dotted with copses of trees, small streams, and modest lakes stretching all the way north to the Fenn mountains. The country of the Seti horse clans, Ferret, Wolf, and Eagle. And the warrior society of the White Jackal who worshipped Ryllandaras, the Elder Hero himself.
