Rainbow Snippet for 3-23-2024

Rainbow Snippets is a group for LGBTQ+ authors, bloggers, and readers to gather once a week and share six sentences from a work of fiction–a WIP or a finished work or even a 6-sentence book recommendation (no spoilers please!).  Check out all the other awesome snippets by clicking on the picture above.

I’m still posting from an unnamed M/M fantasy trilogy WiP. This follows from last week’s snippet and is very rough draftish, so please squint and ignore the “half-remembered memory” line.

“I don’t suppose I need to tell you to be careful in the city, do I? You’ll be safe enough here, and in the castle itself, but the home base of the Temple of Misdem is here and its clerics don’t like wizards.”

Ta’elsin nodded, his mind shying away from another half-remembered memory. “What is this place?” he asked, searching for safer ground.

“It’s a guest house of sorts. Maintained by the crown for visiting dignitaries, including wizards.”

Ta’elsin frowned. “But if the Temple of Misdem hates wizards so much why do they allow this place to stand?”

Berrebren chuckled. “Because the Crown wants it here and they don’t dare go against the king – yet. It may happen someday but for right now they follow the King’s Rule.”

  1. Great snippet!

    Are you all right? This is the latest post on your blog I could find. I’m a little worried since I can’t locate you on Rainbow Snippets lately.
