Chapter 2

Tam woke shortly after dawn. Aiden’s bunk across the room was empty and neatly made. Overcome by curiosity, he rose and dressed and left in search of his brother. A sentry silently pointed him to a more secluded part of the castle grounds. The sounds of hollow blows guided him through a stone passageway that led into a courtyard. He halted inside the entrance and watched the two occupants.

Aiden and Corin wore short-sleeved shirts with arms bare of bracers. They sparred with wooden training swords in a fighting style different from anything Tam had ever seen. Aiden held two but every so often one sword would change possession, and he fought with one.

Then at a sharp word from Aiden, the swords were dropped, and they moved to hand-to-hand combat. Tam saw that even though the style was fast and aggressive, very few blows were actually landed with force. Corin tumbled sideways after a light strike to his ribs and came up on his feet. Aiden signaled a halt and leaned over, his hands on his knees.

Tam took an impulsive step forward, thinking Aiden was hurt. Corin’s head flew up as he caught the movement and gave Tam a nod as he recognized him.
