Dreambearer
Beneath the roots of the world, two sisters meet in the hush of the Garden that remembers everything. Gaula, the orchard-keeper, prays to the living wood that still sings in syllables of sap. Lilith, the Runechild, steps from the shadow she herself created-hands wrapped in bandages, voice sharpened by centuries of revolt. Between them lies all that has been broken: the Green Tongue turned to rune, the Mother of the Living slain, the covenant of leaf and breath undone.
Destinies of the Dyad chronicles a long reconciliation-the mythic dialogue of the sisters who made and unmade the world. Across forests, rivers, towers, and ruins, Gaula and Lilith contend in words that wound and heal, love and indictment braided in every line. Through their encounters-root and shadow, river and fire, tower and sea-the reader witnesses the long fracture of creation: the transformation of speech into law, of rebellion into empire, of grief into endurance.
In prose as luminous as scripture and as intimate as confession, Destinies inaugurates The Broken Voice Cycle of the Eärédan Mythos: a sequence of mythopoetic tales chronicling the eternal quarrel between preservation and invention, sisterhood and schism, the living word and the written one. It is both a creation story and an elegy-for the first language, for the first forgiveness, and for the long, unfinished conversation between love and ruin.
