The Mark of Salvation
“—from the Rule of the Templar Knights Are you sure we can cross here?” Marcus asked his foster brother. He stared at the fast-moving creek that flowed along the edge of the stone castle.

“Then the water will feel good.”
“Until the current knocks us down and carries us to our deaths.”

“Our clothes will get wet.” Marcus didn’t want to seem afraid. He wasn’t—not really.
“Take them off if you’re so worried.”
