    Summary

    “The warriors are going to come and get me,” Jade said, out loud to the air. “They just have to collect everybody who got blown away in the storm, and that’s going to take a little bit of time. I need to—” She took a deep breath, looking around. “I need to take care of myself until they get here.”

    If you got lost in the forest you were supposed to stay in one place, but this didn’t seem like a good place to stay. She didn’t have any way to start a fire, and the herdbeasts visible above the grass were too big for a half-grown queen to take down by herself. There weren’t even any fish in the water, just a series of scuttling crabs the size of her thumbnail. And—she eyed the crevice she’d been in overnight—there really wasn’t any shelter.

    “If there’s a fire, that means a groundling city,” Jade said, out loud again to hear herself talk. The wind pulled at the dry grass growing out of the ruins, a rustling wave. “Groundlings have shelter and food, and if I go there and stay there, the warriors can find me there, right?”

    OR: Jade is left alone in a groundling city as a child, and there she meets a groundling named Moon

    Summary

    The border guard handed each of us an enameled blue token big enough that I'd need the thumbs and index fingers from both hands to circle the disk. Each came on a fibrous cord long enough to go around a person's neck. "Don't lose them," she told us.

    Summary

    The date wasn't the exact anniversary, and we were months from Obun, but we weren't doing this for the dead.
