I missed this last year, because I was mostly off-line.
And I thought about posting a short story here, but actually, I liked what![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
papersky did, so I dug out the first chapter of Broken Crown. Sort of. When I started Broken Crown, there were three things, three story strands, I had to reach for: Diora's, Valedan's... and Kiriel's. I wrote three chapters from the viewpoint of a young Kiriel in the Shining City, and then realized that there was no way that the book would reach Diora, and I put those chapters aside, with some vague plan of using them as the start of a later book. Which didn't happen. Or hasn't, yet.
ETA: Having just perused Chapter Two, I realize that these were written before I wrote the prologue(s) for Broken Crown.
( Kiriel, Chapter One, behind the cut )
ETA: Wretch. Because I forgot it.
