Our final excerpt takes us through Cassius' climactic decision, first revealed in the opening lines, and sets the stage for the book's epic finale.

#booksky 💙📚 #writingcommunity #speclit #fantasylit #horrorlit #writersky

I thought I knew how to be a hero. I thought I knew. I thought. Never once did I feel, not aloud. The feelings were buried like the roots of a tree, unacknowledged and all the more powerful for it. Power, like roots, thrives in the dark, its survival dependent on its disguise. The truth of who I’ve always been lived beneath the earth, just like the Mothertree. And at the source, beyond the assumptions, the lies, the suffering, the utter core, was a choice. Who are you? I am Gaius Cassius Marius and I will be the last of the Lightbringers.

For our second-to-last excerpt, Cassius discovers for the first time in his life a place where authority is not blindly obeyed, where "just following orders" is abhorred and revealed for the clown show it is.

#booksky 💙📚 #writingcommunity #speclit #fantasylit #horrorlit #writersky

On the other side of the marketplace was our destination: a clown performing for children. Caked in white powder, red-lipped, and topped by a crude wooden crown upon his wispy haired scalp, the old man scampered around on all fours in a circle to the delighted laughter of the enraptured youth. He shouted orders at them, demanded they do as he told them, offered them coin, and threatened them with violence. The children laughed harder. Faron chuckled beside me. The purpose eluded me. “You took me to a clown?” “I took you to the wisest man I know. Our oldest Imantaji. He’s been waiting for you.”

Our fifth excerpt is extra-special, as it contains one of my favorite passages in my novella: Cassius reads the final journal entry of the previous Lightbringer.

Our next excerpt at last takes our main character Cassius and his crop (a very specific choice of words) of Lightbringers underground on their mission to kill the Dweller in Darkness.

#booksky 💙📚 #writingcommunity #speclit #fantasylit #horrorlit #writersky

I expected our environs to be tight and cramped, and perhaps they will be, but the cavern beneath our entrance was almost as large as the Chapel vault where we had our Choosing feast. The rock has an oily sheen to it that reflected iridescent in light. Broken tendrils of black stone extended out the walls like a thousand gnarled fingers, the rest cleared by Shooting Stars when they uprooted the Zarak and their demon-tree. On the ground are the scattered remnants, some pieces carrying strange symbols. I once read the Zarak etched the names of their ancestors onto the petrified roots. I held one in my hand close to the flame to examine its runes. The piece I held bore someone’s name, someone who had lived and died long before me, and a sudden invisible weight made me drop the stone like it had scalded me.
