Chapter
1: Althinta's Children
The slow moving waist deep water of Wiliman creek was the only body of water to pass close to Saulzar village. It was a popular spot for most of the local children to play during the summer and
spring months, however two boys did not like playing in the creek with the other children.
Not so much that they did not like to play with them, but were unwelcome.
They were considered freaks, the damned. The boys often wandered into the woods north of the village, following the
clear sparkling water to its first bend and there they would play in solitude.
