Of Song and Shadow (The Blade Mage #2)

So, there I was…just minding my own business and having a drink at a local watering hole, when this strange woman approaches me, begging for help.

I’ve never seen this woman in my life. I have no idea who she is.
If she’s to be believed, she doesn’t know who she is, either. Nor does she know where she came from, or exactly why it is she needs my help.

She sure as heck knows who I am, though. She knows that I’m the Blade Mage.

It only gets weirder.

Before I can figure out what to do, the shadows come to life and attack. It isn’t me they want, but this strange woman.

My every instinct screams that I should run away. But…I am the Blade Mage.

I’ve no choice but to help, but there are powers after this woman that I am helpless to stand against. It doesn’t look like I’ll be the Blade Mage for long.
