Summary
What if Imogen and Laudna never left Gelvaan? What if the Bells Hells were just a bunch of small town weirdos that make a life worth living out of a little town in the Taloned Highlands?
Gelvaan wasn’t known for much, other than getting torched to the ground nearly twenty years ago, but talking ‘bout that’s a good way to make the doc go green in the face, so everyone typically tries to keep their mouths shut about it.
Doesn’t mean the older folk don’t think about it, though. Anything from cutting thoughts towards the old Court soldier that runs the general store and the tavern, to praising themselves for pullin’ the community together and rebuilding – even if most of ‘em just sat on their asses and bitched about the work and the crops razed to the ground in a pointless war.
But thoughts are just thoughts, as most would agree.
Unfortunately, Imogen Temult is far from most – and the people of Gelvaan don't have to say it out loud for her to know they think she’s a freak.
