“Did they think me a monster? I would show them monstrosity…

If my world would die, then the Son of the Vine would see it die in a single stroke.

A quick death. Isn’t that rich?"

"My execution had been arranged weeks ago. The fact enraged me...everything that I had done, I did for my world…but my world did not deserve me...they did not deserve to be saved."

"Its name is older than our world...It was one of the seven tines of the Grown Crown.” The Son pointed to his left temple, just past his hairline. “It grew right here.”

“It’s that old?” Caralee tested out the name.

"If the Child of the Vine was both king and god, then the Glass Gardens needed a ruler who acted both godly and kingly. Else it would die, and I would be king and god of dust.

Well. Just look at us now."

"I had seen how one god-king can unmake another. I would rule until the work was done and the Vine restored...

Although it was never my purpose, I had plans to ensure my longevity.

I still do."

"I tore the heart from Father’s chest, and then I crowned myself. A prodigy, I had mastered all seven forms of magick. I needed no superlatives from the seven disciplines to sing the Grown Crown from my skull. I sang myself to godhood and the monarchy."

Next week! #SANDYMANCER!

"I thought of the path I had chosen to walk and why I had chosen it...Seven magicks now bound me, the worst of them called family.

I heard Mother screaming, and I could not decide if she screamed at me or for me...It could have been either. It was probably both."

The Son snapped off a stalk and sniffed the severed end, which glistened with clear goo. “Tens of thousands of years before humankind even dreamed of building worlds such as ours, this tiny wonder was one of the first medicines.”

“Whoa. And it’s just out here in the open?"

“No one’s ever given me anything before, not even when I made the sand itself dance better than any goon-eyed sandymancer ever could. I’m as good as ten of those candle-backed buttfuckers!”

“Hey, now,” eased the Son of the Vine. “The world all but runs on buttfucking."

“What are those lights, Caralee? There are twelve of them, ent there.”

Caralee thought of steel, and fanatics, and mountains burning. Twelve divvils tearing apart Elinor’s homeworld.

Naw. Caralee allowed herself to deny the truth. That’s a coincidence. Twelves are everywhere...

"We built a heaven of metal and mountaintops, and the members of my family were its keepers...Twelve devils there were—are—who sought to undo what we had wrought."

The first color that Caralee saw was green. A thousand different greens, mottling great walls and tendrils...curlicues of green dipped in the wind above and around her. It was everywhere, whatever it was.

“The harpy stalked toward them, perhaps three of its paces away…screamed that knife-scream, the laughter inside it cutting deep. The haze inside Caralee’s head grew stronger.”

Caralee had never met a fanatic before. She found it immediately exhausting.
“Look, lady. Kill me or don’t, but can we get on with it?”

“Are we really that...complicated? There are more lights in him than stars in the sky.”

“Be quiet," the Son snapped. "This is a rare and rather delicious brain trauma.”

“A monster is mindless, but a beast has purpose. You must be a Phoenix, peach. Never a Roc...The caretakers of the world have purpose—that is what we are."

“Listen to me, voiceless winds of my wasteland. I am the Son of the Vine, imprisoned in my stone monument. Our Earthborn ancestors called such a stone a matzeva, but I call it hell.”

On September 10th, stand beside Caralee as she unravels the mysteries of the wasteland. bit.ly/sandymancer
