The Sword of Winter
Marta Randall
Power Beyond the Grave…
"Rider!"
"My Lord?" Her voice did not quaver.
"You're oathed to obey me!"
"Not beyond your death."
"You'll stay after I'm dead. You must. Or I'll have you taken secretly.
Tortured. Killed." He coughed a horrible, wretching cough. "You'll stay for
my son."
"No, Lord."
"You hate him."
"Even more than I hate you. He has the soul of a snake."
"He is my son!"
"Of course." Her stomach knotted tighter. "Who, my Lord, could doubt it?"

The Sword of Winter
ONE
Emris

It was night by the time she drew near the village. She reined in Darkness on
the last shoulder of hill, leaning forward to pat his shaggy neck while she
surveyed the valley. In the light of the full moon the river shone like
tarnished silver, broken near the village where the millrace kept the ice from
forming. A few lights glowed in the village itself, yellow against the pale
snow. The large, brightly lit building in the village center would be the inn,
offering its last rites of comradeship and hospitality before bedtime. Folk
slept early in these mountain villages and woke with the sun. Darkness
turned his head inquiringly. His breath puffed clouds in the cold.
She pulled the hood of her black talma over her brows and tucked it around
her throat, trying to remember the name of the village. Darkness moved
down the slope. She'd already visited Helsrest, Marjoram, Three Crossings—
this place would be the last, then back to Jentesi Castle. She wondered if
Lord Gambin was dead yet.
Someone must have seen her and given the alarm, for the inn was quiet as
she rode into the yard. She swung off the snowhorse as the innkeeper hurried
out, pulling the sleeves of a fleece jacket over his arms. Lamplight spilled
from the open door. Pelegorum, she thought. They raise sheep here. The
innkeeper tried to hide his worry behind a large, patently false smile.
