[screenshot of the synopsis for A Sight of Aur] In the Republic of Callendulus, the blessings of the seven Graces protect the people from the dhei, the beasts of old exiled to the wastelands for their one great sin. But those earthly lords have never given up on their ancestral lands. Caias Seighin, the eastern Lord of Lehron, has prepared his entire life to face them. He's a stellar sharpshooter. A practiced equestrian. A proficient swordsman. Academically excellent and a pillar of sense among his people and peers. With his treasured "eyes that witness truth," Caias is certain to quash the dhei's stirrings in record time. Except he can't. He's a fraud. His eyes reveal nothing, and no one beyond Caias's closest allies can know of this blemish upon his pedigree. Ever afraid of exposing himself, Caias can only manage his very best to allay his people's fears. Khloe Quayle, however, despite her station as Marchioness of Bhelthe, remains deeply unconcerned with the circumstances. A recluse infamous for her indolence, she spurns Caias's efforts in favor of holing up in her workshop. Yet her expertise in aurturgy, the power of commandment, is the key to possibly unlocking Caias's talents. The dhei's long-absent leader is returning, however, and Caias might not have enough time before everything falls apart like sand through a sieve.
#wipwednesday I'm getting closer to the #synopsis of my #bookwip A Sight of Aur! Still not the final form of this thing, to be sure, but it's already WAY better than my initial attempts. 😆 #amwriting #writesky #writingcommunity #booksky
