Peering over the edge of the canoe as best he was able without tipping it, he focused for several moments on getting them to that "middle ground" she had directed. He really didn't feel like having to deal with too much water because he didn't get them close enough, but he didn't want to g...

Miahala chuckled. "Even many people I know can't imagine it because they likely just have one or two siblings. Being one of six was a lot, but it was really all I knew. We were all born pretty close in age, and my two sisters were twins. That's something that also runs in the family, as I also ...

"First, release your weave," Gareth instructed, though he was smiling. He enjoyed watching people learn the craft he had spent so many decades on himself. Immediately, he wove his own Delving net and settled it over the young man. After a moment, Gareth nodded. "It looks like you were...
