Synopsis:
Coming Soon
Timeline Points:
- Early spring p.58 and Joa is looking for a lost dog (Little Clever One). She calls to a vrang (p.59) and is aware of the Valley. She has some form of Power and is nearing the beginnings of her estrus. (p.60)
- Joa and Little Clever One find a hidden cave, which is also a place of the Old Ones. (p.61)
- Joa meets Aisli, a Vupsall sorceress and Kotyan, a sorceress of the Old Race (p.64)
- She returns to camp and talks with Desst (about 20).
- Evil magic is stirring in Escore so this is probably set after Three Against the Witch World.
- Since Hilarion and Kalthea aren't mentioned this is probably not after Sorceress of the Witch World.
- This is a different tribe from the one Kalthea encountered as there is no mention of Utta.
- This may actually take place around the same time as Sorceress of the Witch World where the raiders were also very aggressive.
Sorcerer's Note:
-Omithi is Joa's older sister and is pregnant with Kynor's baby. Kynor is dead as are several other men of the village, however, Kynor's brother Desst wants to marry Omithi.
