Book Description

The memory of the war haunted him like dark shadows, Cherokee revolution had fallen, thoughts of the bloody battle at echo pass made him shiver. Most of the warriors, brave men of Tsalagi were dead, he thought about his father, family, and his friend, Shinak as he lay in the cell, confused without a dream of place. He could hear the pirates shouting from their drunken state into the wild night, at least he found some comfort from Orlando, his fellow prisoner, a man of broken spirits and of great wisdom. Jingau looked through the night anxiously waiting for the day he would be a free man again. Oh freedom he could feel it like the shadow of light, memories of Orlando screaming at the sea, the thoughts of the many weary years he spent at sea with Orlando came back to him like the return of the dusk as he bent over Orlandos grave. They had become brothers, bound by a solemn oath that cannot be broken by death, he wept bitterly until his tears ate up all the words in his heart... I cant tread your love for a Harper of memories, even if the flames refuse to kindle the sky, Ill light my love in a stand of silence and show you the way out of the shadow of your mind, Oliver could not resist the tears anymore, he cried like a little boy... The girl was Jackies, he couldnt bear the sight, he turned and shot from his arrow, his tears clouding his vision...and there she lay, dying in Jackies arms and the two fought over her last attention. Never war with love unless you are ready to pay the price with your memories Loos words resounded over and over in his ears as he thought it over that day. Persies worst fears were confirmed when Real told him he was a home on the run. All he remembered was that there was a war, Napoleons men invaded Fishguard and the rebel soldiers took him away from his father, he loved his present family and could not imagine leaving but he must return and seek his father. He wished he had powers like Reeler and Helmer, his friends or better still if he could recover the book of creation and derive the power of immortality. He had spent many years in the Castle of Vlammen. The moment his feet touched Welsh soil, he felt real good and now he was in love with the bold and beautiful Julia... Oliver cried, trembled when he discovered that his lost son had married a Cherokee, daughter of his bitter enemy. Now he must face Jingau after many years of hatred, and there was little Michael, Persies son, the return of love. He had no option. The very sight of Jackie by the same vale where Leila was laid made him cry...
