Arc: the Wizard's Promise
“I went up on deck at night, standing in the sweet-scented wind while Kolur snored on unawares. But the water stayed dark and empty, and I felt a dull ache inside my chest.

I tensed and grabbed for my bracelet, thinking back on the warning Isolfr’d given me about sensing the Mists’ horrors. But this presence wasn...’t a horror.
