The Sand Gates

By Nancy Niss

A young girl stands in the darkened kitchenof the orphanage in the town of Brinton, darkbut for embers glowing in the banked fire. Coming from the next room are the sounds of all the other children getting ready for theChoosing on the morrow. She, absolutely loathe to be trapped into thekind of life that the Choosing would put her,was wrapping bits of food in a linen napkinso she could escape this unacceptable future. There had been rain that afternoon, drenching the meadow grasses through which she would have to walk as she made her way to the woods on the other side to escape into the unknown, traveling not only to find her future, but to discover her past, for she knows nothing of her parentage, only that she is an orphan, alone in the world. Let her tell you her tales of her journeys andadventures. Come with her to discover justwho Jora really is.
