Lepis has been a dynamic, interesting character since she was born as Queen of Loess. In the time since she has served three kingdoms, divorced two men, loved one, and birthed eight children. Currently, she is the ruler of Taiga, but she has played a pivotal role in the fates of many lands. She is always a fun read and usually has a surprise waiting for us. Congrats to Lepis!
QOTY
"She was close to touching him now,
and there is a fleeting moment where
she thinks she sees him flinch, like he
thought about touching her, too. And in
that moment, she thinks her heart might
have stopped, but just like countless
times before she is left waiting for a
kindness that never comes."
Little is known about Island Resort and the strange structures that dot its beach. The giant, wooden paint-peeling image of an Orca leaping out of water casts a long shadow over the dunes and the grass and often makes for a great conversation as horses try to decipher what it all means. Despite the oddities about this place, it is rather beautiful: White-sand beaches, crystal clear water and palm trees swaying lazily in the breeze. It's the closest anyone could possibly come to paradise in Beqanna.
