CHAPTER ONE

Dusmaria Village, East of the Silver Divide, Moon Haven. 1905

AS THE ICY GRIP OF winter tightened its hold on the land, the old village lay shrouded in darkness, its mud streets silent and desolate under the watchful gaze of the moon. The pale light cast long, haunting shadows that danced eerily across the worn facades of the rustic cottages.

In the distance, the silhouette of a forbidding castle loomed against the night sky, its turrets reaching towards the stars like skeletal fingers clawing at the heavens. Bats, creatures of the night, swooped and circled above the village, their wings slicing through the frigid air with a ghostly whisper.

An ominous chill pervaded the atmosphere, whispering secrets of ancient mysteries and untold dangers lurking just beyond the village's humble borders.

Amidst this eerie tranquility, a faint revelry could be heard in the distance, emanating from The Rusty Tankard, the village's bustling watering hole. The villagers were enjoying a long night of merrymaking, their laughter and boisterous chatter carrying through the crisp night air. The sounds of clinking tankards and jovial banter continued to echo faintly across the village, punctuated by occasional bursts of raucous laughter.

An old cottage nestled on the edge of the village stood as a testament to time's gentle weariness. Inside, the warmth of flickering candlelight danced across the worn wooden floors, casting soft, golden hues upon the humble surroundings. Poverty may have marked the cottage with its frugal furnishings and patched walls but love and resilience imbued every corner with a quiet strength.

In the cozy kitchen, Eleanora stirred a bubbling pot of hearty potato stew, its savory aroma filling the air with a comforting embrace. A frail hand tugged at the back of her apron, drawing Eleanora's attention to the elderly woman standing there, her eyes gleaming with excitement. With wisps of gray hair peeking out from under her worn bonnet, the elderly woman softly pleaded, Oh, dear Nora, may I have a taste of that simmering delight? It smells heavenly.

Eleanora smiled warmly. Of course, Mrs. Winston, she replied, reaching for a ladle to scoop out a small portion of the stew into a bowl. Let me cool it down a bit for you.

As she carefully poured the stew into the bowl, Mrs. Winston watched with eager anticipation, her wrinkled hands clasped. Eleanora blew gently on the steaming stew, before offering the bowl to Mrs. Winston.

Here you go, Mrs. Winston. Enjoy, Eleanora said softly, her voice filled with warmth and kindness. Mrs. Winston accepted the bowl with a grateful smile, taking a small spoonful and savoring the familiar flavors of home.

From the bedroom, the occasional cough hinted at the occupant’s fragility. It echoed through the room, prompting Eleanora to pause her cooking. With practiced care, she fetched a small vial of herbal medicine, a remedy passed down through generations, and made her way to the old man’s bedside.

Then, she paused, her fingers deftly retrieving a portion of the mixture from a pouch under her apron, adding it to the vial with the herbal medicine before continuing to the old man’s bedside.

Here you go, Mr. Winston, Eleanora murmured gently, offering the medicine with unwavering compassion. This will ease your cough.

Thank you, Nora, the old man responded with a gentle voice tinged with pain and a grateful smile. He gently embraced her hands. Your parents would have been so proud of the woman you've become, he added softly, his words carrying a mix of nostalgia and admiration.

Eleanora noticed the discomfort in his expression, Here, let me help you with that. She guided the vial of herbal medicine to his lips. He leaned forward to sip it, his gratitude evident despite the pain. As he looked up, a knowing gaze met hers, understanding the unshed tears that simmered in her eyes.

Eleanora quickly blinked back her tears and cleared her throat. Let me check on the stew; I don't want it to burn, she said, her voice steady despite the emotions tugging at her heartstrings. Nora, he said gently, his voice filled with love and concern. She leaned over and kissed him on the forehead. I'm okay, I promise, she reassured him before getting up.

As Eleanora stepped into the warm kitchen, the sweet aroma of her potato stew enveloped her senses. Mrs. Winston sat at the sturdy wooden table; her bowl pushed to the side, her legs dangled, barely reaching the ground, as she swung them back and forth with a gentle rhythm. In her frail hands, she held a bundle of soft wool and knitting needles, her
