The Hand
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. Two dirty and weary children were walking through the tangled woods that night. They had lost the path in the darkness, their faces scraped and their arms bruised from the branches that slapped at them as they fought through the underbrush. No moon or stars lit their way. They were desperate and hungry, when suddenly they saw the light from the window and the black shape of the cabin rising large, right in front of them where it seemed nothing had been a second before.

Voice of the Sea
There weren't always dragons in the valley. This was what the watchers knew, and Clandar had heard them tell the stories beside crackling Umari bonfires since before he could walk. The Umari were the "tall people," and everything they made was tall--their houses, their sea-going boats, their churches with soaring rooftops not even they could see the tops of, and their swords which were taller than he was.
