The Legend of Asahiel: Book 03 - The Divine Talisman (75 page)

He opened Dyanne’s locket, taking a moment to savor the image within. Perhaps his former life had truly slipped away, never to be recaptured. Like all ends, however, this could serve as yet another beginning. Beyond this island lay a vast world never short on troubles, he thought, his gaze returning to the sea. Instead of dwelling on his past, why not venture forth as Kylac had to confront the unknown?

With luck, he might even find the missing youth…

Or better yet, himself.
