Chapter 01
Dock at Sunrise
The water calms, forgets, forgives, and makes one whole.
She knew the road was still a long one ahead and not an easy one, but the one that had been chosen for her.
She now felt a form of freedom that both scared and exhilarated her.
Chapter 02
By the Water
She lingered by the water but knew she couldn’t stay, although she didn’t know what lay ahead, what she would, or even where she would start.
The words of her uncle — “I’ll stand in the Gap for you” — kept playing in her head and heart.
Chapter 03

After armor, she still harbored the pain, the invisible glass she felt under her feet, the unseen knife she felt stabbing her in the back. The deal she tried to make with her physical body to stop the pain while mentally focused elsewhere — it would be over soon.
Chapter 04
