Soul Swallower – new series WIP from D. Wallace Peach at Myths of the Mirror

Posted on September 20, 2017 by Sue Vincent

I think that’s the name of the series. I like the alliteration anyway. Better than Soul Gulper.

Perhaps you remember the character Raze from one of Sue Vincent’s #writephoto prompts. Well, he’s back with a series of his own.

I don’t have too much to share yet, but here’s a brief peek at the act of swallowing a soul:

***

When the others retired, Raze sat by the hearth, its flames dwindling to scarlet embers. His grief for Briyon unearthed old ghosts, his mother among them, an ageless portrait suspended in the gallery of his mind. Not so his memories of Mirelle. Those lingered with infinite fluidity, entangled with visions of the past and dreams of a future that would never be.

Six years had shuffled by since her death, five since he’d joined Briyon at the freehold, and no lever had proved long or strong enough to pry her from his heart. Loneliness invaded his body so deeply it punched the breath from his lungs and sapped the strength from his back, and no hoping and wishing could bring those people back.

    Would this resemble a sin eater?

    See what you did, Sue? You kicked off a whole new series with a photo of a rainy window. Ha ha. Thanks for sharing. My muse is cracking the whip and I’m writing away. ❤

    Thank you, Sue, for bringing another gift from Diana to my attention. I adore everything I’ve read from her. Even tho’ fantasy has never really been my reading preference, I really MUST move her books UP on my TBR list! (yours too, btw – and Tink is eager for me to read aloud anything with Ani on the cover!)

    Jumping over to see D’s newest – hoping my soul won’t be swallowed and that pleasant dreams won’t allude me tonight. 🙂
