“They have set her on fire, and when she has risen from the flames and the ashes they were startled. Wasn’t she supposed to burn? Why isn’t she dead? But then again, how could fire be put out by fire?”

Sometimes, writer’s block is just not allowing yourself to write poorly. Give yourself that freedom.

BOOK COVER REVEAL

Dear reader,

It is time I make my confession. We all behaved differently in the time of the Shadow, and I am not proud of what I did. The world itself was also different in the time of the Shadow. Most people alive do not remember this time, though it only came to an end last year and began centuries ago. The Shadow once towered taller than any skyscraper, higher than any airplane could have flown. It was an abyss; it encompassed the city of Acheron and covered, we believed, the rest of the world, though no one who had entered the Shadow had ever returned to describe its insides. In a city where one's Gift determined one's place, my Gift put me at the very bottom of the mountain city. You see, my "Gift" was not useful to anyone. In fact, it inflicted pain on whoever approached me, and so no one wanted to be my friend. I was all alone, reader, with only the stars for company in the abandoned cathedral, though even the stars hid from my sight. They hid from everyone. Or maybe everyone hid from them…

My actions in the time of the Shadow were selfish and foolish, and I am here to tell my story. All will be brought to light. Even the Shadow.

Your friend,

Lucia Sanctum
