Obsidian swirled around Thea and suddenly she was whisked away into the night, watching another scene unfold, this one more terrifying than the last.

There was a blur of movement as the same little girl was thrown into a deep pit somewhere in the woods on the outskirts of Thezmarr.

She let out a sob – and in the shadows, a chain rattled.

A scream died on Thea’s lips as she watched a wraith stalk towards the girl, both its ankles in manacles, but its chain long enough to reach her.

The girl scrambled back, but she wasn’t fast enough.

Lightning crackled around her, but she was too small, too young to wield it against such a monster.

Talons flashed through the air.

The girl screamed and screamed as the wraith reached into her heart.

Talons pierced flesh and bone, the wraith snarling and hissing as it battled an invisible force – the force of the girl herself, Thea realised.

‘The shadow-touched people are those who fight against the curse when a reaper attempts to turn them…’ Wilder had told her.

The poor girl’s screams turned into a choked gurgling noise as her body thrashed beneath the attempts of the wraith who brutalised her.

With an incensed shriek, the monster cast her aside, discarding her as though she were worthless, before it shot into the sky, breaking its chains and leaving tendrils of shadow in its wake.

The girl lay bleeding in the dirt.

‘They did that to you…’ Thea breathed to her older sister, tears burning her eyes as she forced herself to watch the ragged rise and fall of the unconscious child’s chest.

‘Yes, they did that to me,’ Anya said simply, her expression unreadable.
