Notes: Palua has previously appeared in Gathering Herbs, though this story is set about a year before that one.


Today Palua was fourteen years old. She had been educated in the convent, along with several of her siblings and other noble boys and girls from the west of Atash, for the last six years. Now her official education came to an end, and she would return home.

That is, if all did not go well.Read more... )

Title: Gathering Herbs
Word count: 333
Rating: G
Prompt: [personal profile] moonwolf's: The use of herbs in magic - either fantasy magic or pagan magic(k).
Notes: This isn't quite the use of herbs, but it is the gathering of them. Also, look! A new (to readers, not me) world!

She rose silently to keep from waking the fellow novices with whom she shared a room, slipped her shoes on, and pulled a coarse brown cloak on over the simple shift she wore to sleep in—deliberately identical to the clothing all priestesses wore night and day.

Hi and welcome to my Dreamwidth journal! The main thing I post here is original fiction.

My work is posted with varying degrees of privacy. If nothing is listed after the summary, it is a public piece. If it says "locked," then you must be on my access list to read it (usually this is because I want to keep rights of first publication intact). If it says "sponsor this," then the beginning of the story is public, with the rest of it waiting to be unlocked for a donation!
