The old spirits use us as conduits into this world. Their presence in our homes, and in some of our bloodlines, infuses our beings with a bit of their power. There are members of the Night who can sense those with ill will in their heart. Those who can prophesize the future through the burning of certain herbs and the reading of palms. Those who are so attuned to the earth and rivers that they can control them to some extent. Those with heightened senses that can smell the coming of rain from the formation of clouds in far-off regions. Rarely, the spirits even gift the Night with a child who can summon them. Who can control shadows and speak to the dead.
Princess of the Night, my people call me.

Candlemaiden: The Stranger Shore

23 parts Complete

Evil spirits. A cursed prince. Death itself in disarray. Iris just wants to go home, but fate has other plans for this young priestess and her odd companions. /// The land of Erinlin is dying, its ancient traditions choked out by the Kaerent church and its true priestesses, the Candlemaidens, increasingly regarded with fear and suspicion. All Iris wants is to tend her candles, win her shade battles, and chat with the spirits of her realm. But when she is torn away from her home by the Kaerent king, she learns that her country needs her to be far more than a typical Candlemaiden-- she must be as the legendary priestesses of old and walk through Death itself. *** Cover help from the awesome @ArdenBrooks.
