Description
A broken warrior, a murdered priestess, a victorious enemy. All hope seems lost, but Maigred will not stop fighting for her people. *** After his beloved Caevah died, Finten lost his connection to the land, and with it the power to protect his people from the Wyrm. The Wyrm came in and destroyed everything Finten had left. Year after year the Wyrm deflowers all the girls who come of age, taking away any possibility that Finten's people can ever regain the power to fight for their freedom again. When Maigred has a vision from the Earth Sister, telling her to reconnect the local Tarasque warrior to the land, she is shocked. She lost her virginity to the Wyrm years ago and isn't considered worthy to offer herself as a connection to the land any longer. But Maigred's daughter is growing up; in a few years she will be taken to the Wyrm's bed to be defiled, and Maigred is willing to risk everything to prevent that. Can Finten open his heart to love again? Will he try for the chance to fight for his people's freedom one more time, or has the Wyrm succeeded in crushing his once fiery spirit? Can Maigred serve as a connection between Finten and the land, granting him his powers again, or was her vision simply a product of wishful thinking?
