Description
Swallow, Daughter, pull them in, those words that sit upon your lips. Lock them deep inside your soul, hide them âtil theyâve time to grow. Close your mouth upon the power, curse not, cure not, âtil the hour. You wonât speak and you wonât tell, you wonât call on heavân or hell. You will learn and you will thrive. Silence, Daughter. Stay alive. The day my mother was killed, she told my father I wouldnât speak again, and she told him if I died, he would die too. Then she predicted the king would trade his soul and lose his son to the sky.My father has a claim to the throne, and he is waiting in the shadows for all of my motherâs words to come to pass. He wants desperately to be king, and I just want to be free.But freedom will require escape, and Iâm a prisoner of my motherâs curse and my fatherâs greed. I canât speak or make a sound, and I canât wield a sword or beguile a king. In a land purged of enchantment, love might be the only magic left, and who could ever love . . . a bird?
