Now that we know what WRAITHSHARD: SWORD & FLAME will be about, let’s have a short excerpt!<\/p>\n

\u201cValgast tracks,\u201d said Romaria, her voice soft and quiet. \u201cA band of about a hundred of them, heading north. I think they passed this way about two days past, maybe three.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cHell,\u201d said Mazael. \u201cDid they tunnel up from the underworld?\u201d The valgasts lived in underground cities far beneath the earth, the nearest of which was Tchroth beneath Skuldar. Since the death of the Old Demon had removed his binding upon the valgasts, who previously had been only able to raid on the surface twice a day, the creatures had grown more aggressive.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t think so,\u201d said Romaria. \u201cIt looks like they came out of the Great Mountains. The tracks headed west before they turned north.\u201d She looked towards the distant wall of the great peaks. \u201cLikely they came out of one of the cavern entrances there.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cHell,\u201d said Mazael again. \u201cThat\u2019s the last thing we need.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Romaria shrugged. \u201cLord Robert is about to marry Guthinga. I suppose for their wedding feast they could split some valgast skulls. You\u2019ve met Guthinga. She would think a row of valgast heads mounted upon spikes would make a lovely wedding gift.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n -JM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Now that we know what WRAITHSHARD: SWORD & FLAME will be about, let’s have a short excerpt! ### \u201cValgast tracks,\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12310,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[97],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12327","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-wraithshard"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pZ6ri-3cP","jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/WraithshardOneStart.jpg?fit=1920%2C975&ssl=1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12327","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12327"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12327\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12328,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12327\/revisions\/12328"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/12310"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12327"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12327"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12327"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
