“For a terrifying moment she thought she had been struck blind until she glanced up to where the night sky still showed a faded hint of sunset. But down on the forest floor, where she was sitting on what felt like a carpet of pine needles, there was only darkness. Complete, absolute and absolutely terrifying darkness. However, as she slowly began to realize, there were at least no threatening snarls or moans and no flashing eyes and teeth. She had escaped the Unseen. And the terrible sharp pains... left by the evil creatures' teeth? Suddenly becoming aware that she was no longer in pain, Xandra ran her hands over her arms first and then her legs and found no trace of the deep wounds. All the painful punctures that had tormented her even in the relative safety of the white bird's clearing now seemed to have disappeared. Had suddenly, magically healed, just as they had on that other day, when Belinda had shown her how to enter the world of the Unseen and then how to escape from it. And now, just as before, the wounds had disappeared, leaving only a slight itchy tingle where they once had been, raw and damp with blood.MoreLessRead More Read Less
