Into a Dark Realm
“From the distant parapet of the family castle, his father returned the salute, welcoming a surviving son home from training. Hirea rode at Valko’s side. With training over, he had simply informed the son of the Camareen he would travel with him to his father’s estates, then move on to his own home, Talidan, a town closer to the mountains to the east. At a suitable distance behind them rode Hirea’s two retainers.
As they rode together, Hirea said, “It is time for plain speaking, young Valko.”
“T...he talk you spoke of that afternoon on the training floor,” countered the young warrior, “the one for which I waited in vain?”
“Such is the nature of time and circumstances,” said the old teacher. “I have little to say, and your father will tell you more. For the time being let me tell you that your mother hid things from you to prevent you from betraying her or yourself before this day. She and I have met, and she is a remarkable female. This is what we need you to know: everything you have been taught by your mother is true; everything you’ve been shown since you emerged from the Hiding is false.”MoreLess
