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.
About Witch Raising: The Book of Fire
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
Brownie looked around,
there were so many platforms. She check the board for Fireden, this
was her first stop. It was a weird feeling as it made her think about
Sahel and his fire. It was as if she was on her way to something that
belonged to him. It was a four hours ride. She tried to get the
thought out of her mind, hopefully, she wouldn't be in their long
enough to think about Sahel or see something reminding her of him.
Not that she needed to be reminded. It was starting to eat at her
that she had left him just like that. Dylan and Viorel were probably
in a lot of trouble trying to resonate with him. If only he could try
to fix his own issues too, that would help when she came back. If she
was ever strong enough to come back because in all honesty, she
didn't think she was going to be able to fix herself or anything so
easily. It was true that the little voice in the back of her mind was
saying “hey, you did those spell super fast so you can fix them
super fast too,” or “It's just an energy issue, once the energy
is back at the right place you'll have no problem what so ever”,
“relax, it's not such a big deal”, but if it had been easy to fix
she would have found a way to deal with it in the library's books.
Everything so far had been in those books after all, if they didn't
have the answer well, maybe there were no answer. The only thing she
had found in those book was a simple spell to ask the goddess for
directions.
She had skip school on
break one afternoon to go shopping for the ingredients and she had
missed the next class. That's when she had realized that the
situation with Sahel wasn't viable anymore. If it wasn't for him surveying what she was doing all the time and telling her how bad
it was for her to do magic and forbidding her to go to the magic
store, even the one on the human side which had become her most
prevalent supplier, she would have gone after school. She wouldn't
have been sneaking. She wished she had the strength to talked back to
him earlier instead of letting him control her. But she wasn't strong
enough at the time, she still didn't feel like she was, she believed
that what he said about her was true.
It was a bit like a
negative reinforcement. There was a part of her that liked the
version of who she was before meeting Yue and before diving into
magic for him a lot better than she liked this new version of her.
There was a part of her that missed all the things she had to give up
to be who she was now. She had given up her passion for fashion, the
fashion club, the fashion magazine editing and her dress to become a
seamstress. It was all gone, her grate had been falling because she
wasn't doing her homework anymore and she knew that only happened to
kids with problems but she couldn't help it. There just wasn't enough
time to deal with everything and school work. She was sleeping in
class because she didn't get enough sleep at night because of all her
nightmares. She hated this life style. It just wasn't her anymore. So
Sahel was having a point but at the same time, she couldn't just
ignore the nightmare, ignore the chaos and just go back to the way
things were before. It just didn't work that way. She couldn't just
ignore the problems and hoped for the best.
So she had sneaked out of
the room when Sahel was asleep and directed herself to the secret
room in the library where she had hidden her supply.
