Adele – Hello
Touchstone hadn’t left the Old Kingdom in decades. Not after the incident at The Wall with the Destroyer. But he could sense trouble brewing at the border. Sabriel was off in the North for a mission, so he would have to check this on his own.
He kept going South, but he could still feel his magic as strongly here as he could in the Capital. Something was wrong. There wasn’t supposed to be magic here, but it was here nonetheless. The windchimes had been silent when he crossed The Wall, and his son had mentioned that something strange was happening further South. It seemed as though magic had grown too much to be contained in just the Old Kingdom.
Sabriel returned from her mission in the North and told him that the Wastes were the same way. Something had changed.
