She is her father's daughter. He taught her to hunt. He taught her to fight. "You are your own sword, and you belong to no one," he always told her, but she knew there was more behind his words. There was a mystery to be revealed, something to be abstracted from the implicit.
But there is no time now. The Beasts of old are on her kingdom's doorstep. The mystery is unraveling within her, manifesting on her tongue. They want her sword. But who is she to stop the wars of kingdoms?

...

The foundations of Nore's world are being shaken. Her once simple life ended in tragedy, and now she must venture forth into the unknown. All around her are secrets, whispers, and conspiracies. Nore knows how to use a sword, but is the blade of her cunning sharp enough to pierce through the deception?
Enter the world of Endrebor where Elves conspire in their forests, Dwarves hoard in their mountains, and Men wrestle for dominance. Enter the life of Nore, a girl who finds herself amidst the chaos, but which is greater: the chaos of the world, or the chaos within her own blood?

•••••••••••••••• He took a step closer to her, and she took one away from him. "When two people make love, it is sensual, two hearts bonding, and caring for one another. It's slow and gentle and undemanding. It's just you and the person you love, and nothing else in the world matters." She didn't know when he'd gotten so close to her, but her eyes burned as she read the slight expression that flashed across his own eyes... sorrow, as if perhaps remembering something, or someone from his past. She didn't know why it made her chest hurt, he was only a brute after all... •••••••••••••••• Set against the enchanting backdrop of mid-18th century England, "The Cadre of Embers" unfolds the extraordinary journey of Althea Lezant, a young and unmarried woman disillusioned by societal constraints on women.
