Book 1 - Chapter 12 - Uncertain

ALERT:  I'm experimenting in POVs. I look at this blog as a place to experiment so... this post will be in third person limited Mila POV. If that confuses you, I AM sorry but I'm a fledgling writer and have yet to find out what POV I'm most comfortable with.

~ Abandoned Building~

  It was the third night since that man had shaken Mila's entire world. Each night since she had sat, wherever she was, and thought. Never did the subject of her anxiety change. Her chest heaved as her heart pounded thinking again on what Wisp had said. Nobody dared disturb the young woman. She fingered her hair, it was growing out again, almost long enough to push into an elegant bun.  In a few weeks it would be possible to look the part of heir. Mila sighed, craning her neck to look higher, up to the stars, through the window.

~A Cave in the Mountains~

     Sadness flowed and ebbed like the northern oceans. In this safe place a person could feel it even when sleeping. The cave twisted and turned every which way. Holes periodically carved through to the outside world allowed natural light.

September 21, 1000 - Early Morning

     Ponia had enemies inside it now. The people had lost four areas to the enemy. Mila had been to each place in the aftermath of the fighting. Battles continued to be lost. Something had to happen and soon if the war was to be won. Troops were spread thin across the mountains while those who were trying to overtake Ponia multiplied. Now Mila was scouting again for Tink, if it could be called scouting. It was a boring, no action order. Go in, ensure the place is empty then move out. A dog could do the job. Her breath came out in white puffs her nose was red. No matter how hard she tried Mila couldn't seem to coax the old excited feeling to light. A dog barked far off. 

Book 1 - Letters

ALERT: Whenever I have time I will put in pictures. I want to update this blog a lot more but taking pictures- I just don't have time for all of it. So I've decided to just write the chapters and then take the pictures at a later date. It won't look quite as good, I know, but it's better than no updates! Without further detaining you, the story.

TO: Captain TINK - Scout Team #1
FROM: COMMANDER LOS


DATED:  13 SEP 1000


Tink, how is Mila holding up? I just delivered the last of the cargo to our safe place yesterday. The village was attacked. Our people defended it bravely but I was forced to retreat. Please move on to the sabotage stage of the Grand Plan.


The girl doesn't know the reason we're giving them a safe house so don't worry. She'll find out within the week, though. She's smart even if she doesn't talk like it. I'm going to move everyone farther inland next month just to be on the safe side. When I do this you and your team will be second in command. Tell Mila I'm caring for her people.


Make sure Mila stays safe. Without her there is no way we can continue our mission. Be careful what you say around her. She is a cannon waiting to be lit by any small spark. We must wait until just the right time to light it.


I'll see you as soon as I can. Keep the Grand Plan in mind when doing anything and everything!
