IkuSaari

A young healer woman sets sail to kill her enemies and steal the heart of the prince her rival desires. She encounters deadrousers, cannibals and lunatics as she hunts for epic treasures and love. She finds out she can be everything she wants to be: a doctor and a healer of thieves, a lover and an impressively rich spirit aunt, but the price she has to pay will be paid in blood. 

Serenica Ingram is a brave witch in her twenties. She would do anything to be even better at healing. Mariana Kinley, a witch-hating witch and a ruthless businesswoman, doesn't like competition and drives Serenica out of her home. She joins the pirate crew of the necromancer, Captain Spade. 

The city of Neul that Serenica calls home is a hostile and degenerate place, ripe with rich merchants and homeless witches, but the mythical island of outlaws, Aja Vana, is even stranger. The western islands are populated by outcasts and Serenica would do anything to avoid them. 

Becoming a rich and respected pirate healer isn't easy, especially with both other witches and royals wanting Serenica dead. She has to sail to the ends of the known world just to get her stolen property back, and even harder will be to catch the eye of the Dreamer, the fair prince whom Kinley also desires, while fulfilling the promise to kill a king.

WARNING: s*icide mentions, very mild cursing, violence, blood so please use caution when reading.

Water Belongs to the Dead: Heart of the Witch

The inn was called Miatild's Nest. From its shaggy and weatherworn outlook one would not have assumed it to be the place of death for one of the most prestigious poets of Sennas. However, it had apparently had enough visitors over the decades that it had comfortably kept itself upright. The lady of the house was a matronly woman with a good sense of humor. She informed Serenica that the place was famous for a certain steak dinner and that patrons from all over the country came to have a taste of the delicious meat.

Serenica knew this to be the way people talked when selling their services. Nevertheless, she was tempted to try the steak.

"I don't have time for that," the first mate said. "I hope you find what you are seeking here."

Serenica was now alone in the room, waiting for her steak and desperately hoping for the mysterious man to appear.
