‘I fear that I am ordinary, just like everyone
To lie here and die among the sorrows
Drift among the days
‘For everything I ever said
And everything I’ve ever done is gone
And dead
‘As all things must surely have to end
And great loves will one day have to part’*

Elan on the beach washes her shame in the ocean
She learned to loath herself by the man that she called father
she goes along the shore in search of moonstones
she walks up the way to the market where people sold and traded things like silk and pottery, dried herbs and root vegetables
Elan and her father traveled with a donkey because their horses were taken when the raid happened two years before
and so they walked everywhere and packed up the donkey and went by boat to travel and trade
He was thought to be a medicine man and his herbs promised cures
they would travel by season when weather allowed it and returned to familiar ports

The first time the pirate with the vampire eyes looked at her with possession
it was her first encounter of being valued
