Description

... The White Raven is meant to lead the cult to prosperity. Long ago, the Goddess of Death promised prosperity to her people, a leader to shine a light through the darkness. The White Raven will come and free her people... Every hero has a backstory.

Before Reed becomes a Death Monk of the Leaf Monastery, she has to escape her family. Her name and her past have been left behind, but the memory lingers. Will her past come back to haunt her one day?

Reedsong was born to the leader of the Cult of the Raven. When her destiny is decided for her, she can only follow along and do as she is told. When there is doubt among the Cult if Reedsong is the White Raven, a web of division and betrayal unravels. The young moon elf knows that the chains of servitude hang over her neck.
It is time to run. It is time for a change. Her freedom is within her grasp.
All she has to do is take it.
Years of hiding from the Cult of the Raven can only lead Reedsong to a life of fear.
Follow Reedsong from her days running to the shelter of the World Tree.
Long before the gnolls come south.
She has yet to meet the brave young man who reminds her of her heart.
And long before the gods remember the world of Aearth... Reedsong has to fight for herself.

This story is the backstory for the character Reed found in Shattered Peace. You do not have to have read Shattered Peace to read the Runaway. If you want to see what happens after the close of these pages, be sure to continue with Reed on her journey from runaway to legend.
