Excerpt:
Solace of Time grew darker in the mind of the Snake Queen, like a forbidden secret never to be spoken, left unsettled and growing into hate. Thunder roared across the murky sky and the black ocean howled as it crashed onto the pale shore. A haunting chill came from the ocean, sending shrills across Ashera and Nile’s neck as they stood, facing the queen.
Ashera reached for Nile’s hand, as if she were afraid of this bad dream. Her lips trembled as she murmured, “Where are we?”
“Solace of Time.”
Ashera looked around and was frightened by the darkness of it all. Everything seemed so empty and gray. “Everything seems so . . . dead.”
Shebris hissed after Ashera and as she glided, she bumped into a sand mold. She thought it was a sand mold, or perhaps a sand castle from a memory. She glanced down to see Srinath lying on his side, and she stepped away from him to see his cape sprawled out. She had brought him to Solace of Time and she seemed to forget how easy the touch was to bring somebody here.
“I don’t want to be here,” Ashera said.
“It only exists in the mind, Ashera. This is hers,” Nile said.
“Why does she have one?”
“Enaya, element of time, connects you to your past.” Nile looked at Shebris while he continued to talk to Ashera. “Shebris came in contact with Enaya a long time ago.”
Nile turned to face her, but he didn’t see Ashera. Instead, he saw Dywnwen on the balcony. It was one of the last nights in Woodlands, before any of this happened. He was staring at her while Roland was asleep and he was smiling. He remembered what she had said to him.
“You are still my knight in shining armor.”
He replied, “I will always be that knight in shining armor.”
When he blinked, Dywnwen was gone. That was all she was now, a memory, and she was gone like one too. He saw Ashera and felt empowered by her presence. She was so beautiful and her little kisses warmed Nile’s soul. He looked into her beautiful eyes and for an instance, he forgot he was Nile Whitman. Instead, he was a knight.
