Just wanted to drop in and leave another excerpt from Throne of Exile, which just surpassed the 10k word mark! Enjoy.
*********************************
Off the airship and into the city we went. A part of me couldn’t believe what I’d seen yesterday, and I half expected to find Perthia standing and as unyielding as ever, the destruction we’d encountered just a bad dream.
Alas, the same sight met me at the gates. It was just as shocking the second time.
To some, of course, it had just become a ‘ghost-town looter’s paradise’. I guess I was just a glass-half-empty kind of girl.
Still, I looted with the rest of them. Just because I was properly aghast at total annihilation didn’t mean I wasn’t starving or eager to add a pillow or two to my life in exile.
