Welcome to Tuesday Travel. Every Tuesday, I will be presenting an excerpt of Witch Raising: The Book of Fire, the book in which Brownie, the heroine of Demon Soul, is undertaking an initiatory journey.
Witch Raising is a new series with Brownie, the heroine of Demon Soul as the main character. This series is part of the House at the Crossing Series and follows Demon Soul and Demon and Fairy but instead of being centered on the adventure of Sahel and his demon friends, it follows Brownie as she goes from being a normal girl to a bad ass witch. She has been practicing magick for a while now, saving people from difficult situations but the people at the house, including Sahel aren't happy with her new calling. Feeling that she doesn't have a choice and has to keep learning witchcraft, Brownie leaves to meet other witches.
The excerpt, we start where we left off last week
The waiter came and put the pizza in front of her and her companion but she didn't quite register it. She took another deep breath and the room went back to normal. The yelling in her ears stopped.
"Are you ok?" Josh said filling up her glass of water. "You look pale, as if you had seen a ghost."
She took the glass of water with a shaky hand and hold it with her second one to stabilise it.
"I'm ok," she finally said.
"No you're not," Samantha answered.
Brownie looked at her.
"I wasn't, I don't know what happened, it never happened to me before so, I'm not sure but now I'm ok I guess, it stopped."
"You had a panic attack," Samantha said. "We were talking about magic at the cave, remember."
"Yes," Brownie said feeling her heart getting agitated again. "It's going to be fun."
She forced herself to smile. She didn't panic, she couldn't panic now, so far from home and so far from her goal. She was safe now. In everything she had done, with everything that had happened to her, why would she panic when she was with friends at the restaurant having a conversation. Here was safe, this couldn't be happening. It was like one of her nightmare but in the middle of the day.
"That was scary," Josh said. "You were like another person."
"My mind sort of got stuck on something," Brownie said. "We better eat before the pizzas get cold."
She didn't really want to talk about it. How could she explained to stranger what was happening to her. She wasn't sure what it even was. She had done a lot since leaving the cave, why was it coming back now. The demons looking for her were hundreds of kilometers away. She wished there was someone she could tell about that, but she knew that even if she were home right now, there wouldn't be anyone. Hitomi maybe, she would listen but the other would freak and just tell her she couldn't do magic in this state and they would be right. What if this happened during a spell, what if she was brought back to these thoughts in the middle of something dangerous. What if it had happened while she was in Kallisto's consciousness. That was crazy, This couldn't be happening.
"It's really good," Josh said. "The best pizza I ever had in my entire life."
