Sword Bearer (Return of the Dragons)
“It was pretty dark, and I was so confused I couldn’t tell if it was very early morning or early in the night. I lay on a bed of soft grasses and leaves, which crunched pleasantly underneath as I turned over now onto my side and sat up.
A fire burned brightly, and I could smell something delicious. It smelled like nuts. I remembered when I was ten my father took me out into the woods, and we roasted chestnuts.
But these were not chestnuts.
Certain nuts were magical — enhancing the constitutions ...of those who ate them, strengthening them both physically and magically.
Just from the roasting smell, I knew this nut must be powerful.
My mind felt clearer and cleaner. Colors looked stronger, sharper and stranger as I breathed in more and more smoke. If the burning shells affected me this much, I couldn’t imagine how eating the nuts would affect me.
I felt a shadow over me and I looked up. Kara was smiling as she reached out her hand. I grabbed it and she pulled me up.
