- Reading
- Try the opening together, then check in about the dark magic and the consequences of Rachelle’s choice. Continue independently or together according to the reader’s interest and comfort.
- Themes
- Duty, choice and alliance: Rachelle is ordered to guard the king’s son and draws him into a search for a legendary sword, after an earlier choice binds her to the evil she hoped to defeat. The premise sets personal consequences alongside a protective duty, but does not show how the story judges Rachelle’s choices.
- Worth knowing
- The premise includes dark magic, a threat of eternal darkness and a choice described as terrible. Consider whether those perilous, ominous elements suit the reader at present.
