Bestowed: Part I - While the Spirit Sleeps

By Lionel Cant

On Parpati Island, rumors can make or break anyone. No one knows this better than Sangka Jenkins. For five years, he's listened to his neighbors' theories on what happened the night his friend, Locke Bell, went missing. Some think it was an accident, others not so much. Liar, murderer . Sangka's heard it all. As much as he would love to clear his name and set his neighbors straight, he can't. The memory of what happened has been long forgotten, and even Sangka has given up trying to remember. Now, twenty years old and resigned to a life as a social pariah, Sangka counts the days until... well, nothing really. Life is boring and mundane, except for the nights. Those have been interesting of late. For his dreams have become disturbingly vivid, and a late night pest he can't explain has come knocking. The world stirs with mixed intentions. Some believe the next great conflict is nearing, that the children of Abo are due to choose their pieces and exert their will. If this is true then chaos is just beyond the horizon, and only those who are bestowed will prevail.
