Y'Keta needs a place to hide until his banishment from the Roost is lifted. Grudgingly he turns to the village of Esquialt. Village tradition grants him one Cycle, a turn of seasons from spring to spring, to earn the right to stay.
This year the ceremony has a bit more meaning. The Utlaak have attacked villages up and down the coast from Esquialt. The Elders are preparing for war and one more warrior could make a difference.
Siann doesn't trust the new warrior. His clenched fists and odd colored eyes bother her, and then there's the strange way fire seems to follow him, flaring up when he comes near. Y'keta and Siann must learn to work together, despite their differences, before the Utlaak reach the village and destroy them all.
Y'keta must be careful though. He knows if anyone-especially the inquisitive Siann-discovers his identity, it could destroy the village, tearing their history and traditions apart. But that might be a risk he has to take if Esquialt is to survive.

Paths Beyond (Under Rewrite)
In the frozen wilderness beyond the village walls, survival isn't guaranteed-it's earned. Grey, a sharp-eyed young hunter gifted with the ability to see ethereal threads of light connecting all living things, walks a thin line between life and death with every step into the snowbound forests. His gift is his greatest tool-and his deepest secret. When the Grand Hunt leads Grey and his squad to a chilling encounter with a monstrous creature and a group of robed strangers led by a sinister old man, the world he thought he knew begins to crack. Ancient powers stir beneath the frost, and the old man's magic reveals a truth far more terrifying than the dangers of the frozen woods. As the village reels from loss, Grey finds himself facing impossible choices. His gift, once a quiet advantage, now feels like a curse drawing him deeper into a conflict he doesn't understand. Shadows whisper of forgotten paths-ancient roads walked by those who sought strength not just to survive, but to transcend. Paths where power can be cultivated, honed, and wielded by those willing to sacrifice everything. But power always comes at a cost. Blood stains the frost, alliances are tested, and every step deeper into the unknown pulls Grey closer to a path he may not be ready to tread-a path where strength isn't just survival, but transformation. And in the depths of the wilderness, where cold winds carry secrets and danger lurks with every shadow, Grey must decide if he's willing to pay the price for what lies beyond.Complete
