And then one day, she remembered. . .

Leahanna had always been the most loyal and adoring of servants, her soul bonded throughout time to one half of the black sword pair weilded by the fearsome Shadow Lady. With this life she had been content. —Until the day the Black Swords were broken, her soul was cast free, and Leahanna found herself lost and confused. . . And very unhappy.

“I have need of a servant I can trust. One who will never turn her back on me. One who will not crumble in a storm. Do you have Iron in you, girl? Are you strong? Or will you give up all of what you might become to float directionless down the river of time, to play the life of just another girl who will fade and turn grey and be forgotten?”

The two of them stood in the little yard of the farmhouse, Leahanna fairly quaking in her muddy shoes, heartwrung tears standing in her eyes, because she understood. She shook her head, teeth gritted, “I'm not like that,” she breathed.
