Tress | Chapter One
| In the middle of the ocean, there was a girl who lived upon a rock. This was not an ocean like the one you have imagined. Nor was the rock… |
Frugal Wizard | Chapter One

Yumi | Chapter Two
| Yumi had always considered the appearance of the daystar to be encouraging. An omen of fortune. A sign that the primal hijo would be open and welcoming to her. The… |
Tress | Chapter Two
| Perhaps you were surprised to hear those last words. Tress wanted to stay on the Rock? She liked it there? Where was her sense of adventure? Her yearning for new lands? Her wanderlust? Well,… |
Frugal Wizard | Chapter Two
| Part of me wanted to stalk out and demand answers. Play the role of irate customer, make them break character. Yet . . . Something about all this . . . A part of me was… |

Tress | Chapter Four
| Leave. Leave the island? People didn’t leave the island. Tress knew, logically, that wasn’t explicitly true. Royal officials could leave. The duke left on occasion to report to the king. Plus he’d… |
