Radiant: Towers Trilogy Book One - Plot & Excerpts
But she could not run—wouldn’t for months, if she understood the fiery pain that ripped through her right knee with every limping step—and the swelling made bending the joint all but impossible. “I’d be easy to catch now,” she said between panting breaths. “Too bad there’s no one down here to find me.” She’d always talked to herself; the sound of her own voice had been a comfort in many dark places. Yet now she heard only her voice’s echoes, not filling the tunnel’s cavernous space but emphasizing it, and the emptiness when she fell silent was worse. Still she staggered on, clutching at the dirty pipes strapped to the tunnel wall, counting her steps and cursing under her breath, because anything was better than weeping. Too slow, too late: her unspoken accusations reverberated around her. She’d said too little, she’d said too much; she should have talked to Shai about her father before collapsing into sleep; she should have begged her to stay.
