The Name-Bearer (Flowers of Prophecy #1)

by Natalia Hernandez

Phanessa couldn’t escape the sticky fear that this would not be the last time she saw her, or her magia.

🙄

flesh peddlers,

This is such an uncomfortable term and it’s always thrown in with any list of dangerous undesirables.. for some reason

“Do you think we’ll all be together again?”

Aren’t they all grown? And didn’t Taru and Petra drift away from Raidea and Nova after Damika left? lol why is she crying

Out of the covering of the cluster of trees to their right, men began to emerge, all of them holding weapons, and chains. Flesh peddlers.

Not bandits? Is sex trafficking really the bigger issue? lol

he had only known Nova for a few days but he recognized a kind soul, gentle heart and fiercely protective spirit.

I hate this line lol

She was exactly the type of person one would want in their corner, and as their friend. If he was this distraught at having lost her, how must the mage be feeling?

Oh, it’s immediately reiterated. Lovely.

He had quite a pleasant voice, clear and melodic with tones that could pick up a jaunty tune and encourage dancing and laughter, or deepen and lower for more poignant ballads, which could occasionally reduce even grown men to tears.

It feels bad that the narrator (the author) is telling us how to feel about character traits.

Nova turned to the Alric,
