Kingdom of Ash

of Terrasen did not rest upon it.
Hasar opened her mouth, but Sartaq cut her
off. “North. We shall indeed go north with
you. If only to repay you for saving our army
—our people.”
Aelin tried not to look too relieved.
“Gratitude aside,” Hasar said, not sounding
very grateful at all, “Kashin’s scouts have
confirmed that Terrasen is where Morath is
concentrating its efforts. So it is there that we
shall go.”
Aelin wished she had not eaten such a large
lunch. “How bad is it?”
Nesryn shook her head, answering for
Prince Kashin, “The details were murky. All
we know is that hordes were spotted marching
northward, leaving a trail of destruction in
their wake.”
Aelin kept her fists at her sides, avoiding
the urge to rub at her face.
