Sabriel rested in the hot spring bath of her ancestral home. Her new companion Mogget’s unblinking gaze met hers. “I had hoped to find father here”. “Belisaere” came the cryptic response. Sabriel inspected the being and saw the bell on their collar. A binding spell then. Whatever this creature was it was powerful, and likely not being pleasant by choice. “If you have the bells and the sword your father has passed on” Mogget said after a spell. “Which means you are the Abhorsen now whether you reject that fact or not”. “What’s the fastest way to get to the capital then” Sabriel asked. “Grow wings” Mogget replied with a rather off-putting orientation of their mouth. Almost as if they couldn’t decide whether they wanted to smile in amusement or prepare to rip out a throat.
Far downstream for the Abhorsen’s house, in the tiny fishing village of Nestowe, a young woman was preparing her catch. The rain had been light and as such the villagers were preparing to move to the island off the coast. The bay would provide enough moving water to serve as protection against even many dead. Her diligence distracted her from a moving shadow. The chill of the sea-breeze concealed the tell-tale sign of coldness the surrounded the dead. And she never even saw the gaping maw and fiery eyes before she was consumed by death itself.
