Blurb:
In Seppal, the prophecy has been heard and the Three and Three are awaited.
Ranal’s dead mam once told him one day he would learn why he had been born. He has found two companions, boys like himself who have no home and become seaweed gatherers like he has been. His two friends are developing strange skill. He can see no change in himself but he desires a sword. Then they will be three, Seer, Healer and Warrior
Amera returns to the clan after spending the summer with the king windsteed stallion and six yearlings. What she finds is the slaughtered herd and also the clan. Only one person remains barely alive and tells her Bethera, her cousin and almost sister has been taken by the priestesses and their guards. Not knowing what to do, Amera follows the king stallion to a sheltered glen and a huge cave complex. When the stallion calls her, she follows him to the priestesses’ keep and manages to rescue her cousin and another young girl. During the next few years, her friends develop talents and are becoming the Seer and the Healer. Amera wants to become the warrior but she can’t imagine how she can gain a sword.
Now the Three and Three must join to bring justice, healing, order and change to Seppal.
Excerpt:
One evening, they sat around the fire
eating a meal she had prepared. Ciera and Seval gave a report on their spying
on the priestesses.
“They are planning their spring leaving,”
Seval said. “Two groups.”
“One will travel to the small villages
along the shore,” Ciera said. “Both are seeking young girls. The other goes to
the town.”
“This time no boys will be selected,”
Seval said. “They only seek three. I don’t understand why.”
Ciera added a log to the fire sending a
shower of sparks flying. “They plan to train the three to become Seer, Healer
and Warrior.”
Amera shook her head. “They will fail.”
Ranal rose. “We can’t remain here doing
nothing. We must go to the mountains.”
“Not during the winter.” Amera frowned.
She wanted to go but in the spring. “We must plan for a spring departure.”
Ranal stalked away. “Why?”

Let me guess why - it's winter. It's cold. There's snow.
A rival three? Look out!
She's right, not over the mountains in the winter. Best to wait until spring. But is he willing to wait? Thanks for sharing!
