CHAPTER NINETY TWO
I don’t know what I expected after my confirmation as the Righ, but this definitely wasn’t it.
I stare at the proceedings, not knowing what to make of any of it.
Balin has been glued to my side ever since we found out.
“A feast?” I echo, feeling a little unnerved by the gorgeous garlands being prepared.
Balin clasps my hand, “Don’t worry about it yet. Come with me. I want to take you somewhere.”
I reluctantly look over my shoulder at the preparations underway before allowing him to lead me farther into the forest. We are moving away from the elves village into a deeper part of the Forest of Shadows.
“Where are we going?”
“A secret spot,” Balin’s lips curve and for a moment, I see something wild in his eyes.
He’s been like this ever since we discovered that I am the Righ. After that horrifying experience, aside from having that screaming voice now stuck in my head, I don’t feel any different.
But Balin does.
