At the Water’s Edge by S. McPerson Excerpt
I tuck my hands into my coat pockets. Itโs astonishing how cold open spaces are when itโs night time. Milo has transported us to a dusty landscape they tell me is Melaxous and we are making our way to something they describe as โthe sleeping areasโ. Milo warned me that teleporting would feel a little strange and he was right. It was colder than I would have thought and my body felt almost elastic. I am only just starting to get over the sensation. โThis is bad,โ Yvane says, shaking her head. We have been walking for some time now and they are all still fumbling for a way to change the past but by the sounds of it, thatโs not something any of them can do. This makes one thing certain: there is no way of trading Lexovia and I back for another fortnight and the Courts of Coldivor; the rulers of all seven empires, must absolutely not find out, and more importantly, neither can the Vildacruz, though they donโt tell me why.
I hear them chatter but donโt really listen to what they are saying. I am locked in my mind, trying and failing to process everything. I see the truth with my own eyes but still find it difficult to trust, shaking my head as I gaze up at the sky. There are stars; just like Earth; thereโs a moon; just like Earth but I am acutely aware that I am no longer on Earth; am I? These stars seem larger, brighter and definitely have a golden glow. The moon also seems brighter, with a hint of silver but it is the same half-moon as in Islon. I frown; I donโt have a clue about anything anymore.
