Introduction and start of part 1There is more to this war
than we realise
It is not dishonourable
to be deceived by the gods.
What you're reading here is the first draft of a novel, which I'm writing one episode at a time. Part one was about 26,000 words long, and this part will be around the same length. Once finished the novel will have a total lenghth of 100,000 - 150,000 words. I have some ideas about where the story might be going but mostly I'm going with the flow.
A man enters a new and unfamiliar country, searching for a better life outside of his homeland that has been racked by twenty years of war. He's a storyteller by trade, part of a shamanistic tradition that is on the verge of dying out altogether. Just when he starts to have hopes for a new life, his past comes back to haunt him.
To get the most out of part two you might want to read part one first, since several people and places from part two are introduced in it.
