Sorrow's Peak (Serpent Of Time Book 2) - Plot & Excerpts
The King Under the City was hiding something, something substantial, judging from the sharp sheen of Gwendoliir’s gaze, which he just as quickly diverted back to the bustling street before them.“It is for His Majesty to determine whether or not you know his secrets, not me.” His pace quickened just enough to suggest the faster they were in the king’s council room, the more quickly he could alleviate the burden of that secret from his shoulders. “You will have to take up your suspicions with him.”“I will,” Brendolowyn assured him, increasing his own stride and maintaining pace with Gwendoliir. He felt the eyes on him, derisive, distrusting, disgusted. It was not a new feeling; every visit to Nua Duaan humbled him in ways that sickened his stomach and tied his self-worth into nervous knots inside him until he breathed air aboveground again. Sometimes the degradation of those necessary visitations lingered with him for weeks after he departed, other times he was so grateful to be out of the company of his mother’s people it was a relief to put distance between himself and his broken ancestry.The Silver-Tongue begrudged Bren’s refusal to take up residence in Nua Duaan, and he liked even less how unwilling one of elven blood seemed to be to join the fight for Alvarii freedom.
