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.

Water Belongs to the Dead: Heart of the Witch

"I am alerting the dolphins! Stay away!" she yelled, even though her body was in a complete and utter state of panic and her blood and the mouse in her were telling her to take the ropes.

"You madwoman!" Spade yelled back at her. "Get back up right now or I will have a heart attack!"

"You can't command your heart to do that!"

She realized the fin was nowhere to be seen. That alerted her more than having it in her line of sight to observe and keep track of it.

"It's diving!" Myorka yelled. She did not seem to share her husband's dissatisfaction with the state of things.

It was, in a way, adorable how much she trusted the dolphins.

While treading water, Serenica realized what a massive flock they needed to drive away such a monstrous shark. If dolphins had been capable of forming such large societies, they would have become the dominant species, and clearly that was not the case.
