    orb into a scarf she’d brought. It didn’t conceal its light, but it was

    “Those treasures were stolen from the village they destroyed. The
    man pulled out a carved wooden horse and the two boys grabbed it at the
    same time. They pulled at it, fighting for possession.

    Zane’s carving. He shook his head and looked away, fighting tears. His
    son’s skilled fingers could carve any image. He’d inherited his mother’s
    slender hands.

    Sweet revenge just became sweeter.”
