Excerpt :
CHAPTER
1
Seek help of the Lord of
Drakkenberg. Only he can aid you. You must fly with the dragon.
Her grandmother’s words rang in
Tova’s head as she climbed the path into the mountains. Why had
Mutti Zee sent her out of her way on a fool’s errand? Everyone knew
the dragonfolk had fled Velosia years ago, driven away by Bruno of
Grimmdorn’s crusade against them. Until he’d been driven from
power. Now Bruno had returned at the head of a mercenary army, if
Mutti Zee’s vision could be believed. And Tova had no doubts. She’d
felt the vibrations in the earth.
And somehow she was supposed to save
the kingdom?
She raised her gaze to the sky and
asked, “Why me? I’m no hero.” The heavens gave no answer,
though she saw clouds form to her left. She shook her head. Now she
was talking to herself, like mad Magnus, the village idiot.
She stopped to catch her breath and
rest her tired legs in a level area. The path ahead grew steeper and
narrower the higher it wound into the mountains. She groaned. After
walking all day, her legs ached. She was glad she’d worn men’s
breeches and a tunic with her sturdy boots. A gown and petticoats
would be but a hindrance.
After a deep breath, she started to
climb again. Dusk came early in autumn, and she needed to find
shelter before dark. Castle Drakkenberg, abandoned and
forlorn, perched high above on a cliff, its turrets silhouetted
against the leaden sky. Almost as if mocking her with its remoteness.
Too much was at stake and her chances of reaching the capital in time
to warn the king were slim at best. Even without this detour, she
estimated the journey to Castle Novita would take three days or more.
For centuries, the dragon lords had
resided in the castle, ruling the isolated mountain communities.
People in this area were known as dragonfolk, though Tova knew not
why. A great puzzle, but one she had no time to ponder. With luck,
she had but to find the dragonlord, and he would take charge of the
quest.
A shadow blocked the sun, and she
looked up at an enormous bird silhouetted against the sky. Goddess,
she’d never seen such a large raptor. It turned and the sun’s
rays glinted on its shiny red-gold wings and barbed tail. She stopped
and stared after it, shaken to the core of her being.
No, impossible.
Dragons didn’t exist. They couldn’t.
