A Threat To Remain
“Just us,” he said.
Silence again. The wind howled as it tunnelled through the cliffs behind them.
The five of them against the world. It didn’t seem so scary. Matu would go to hell and back for the people on this stone walkway, and he knew they would do the same for him. Whatever they would come to face, and they all knew they would come to face something utterly terrifying and horrid and challenging and deadly eventually, they would face it together.

Favourite quote / passage
A Queen To Come

They would be angry when they found out he had vanished.
“Are you out of your mind?” came a voice from behind him.
Or they would be angry now, Sky thought.
