Finding Savini - Adini's Quest, #2 - E-book - ePub

That strange little foreign nun had started all this, started Adini Smith Bronze and Savini Housekeeper Bronze on this trip, telling Adini she was meant for greater things. Adini didn't give her too much mind, except to worry about the Churchmen finding out she had been consorting with an unbeliever, because she had her own greater things to worry about: her Journeyman exams, finding a job and somewhere to live. Then she took on the Examination Board on Savini's behalf when her own mistress wouldn't, bending them to her will somehow, when the Examination Board bent to no one except maybe the Church. Without any other prospects, the two women left the town they'd been born and raised in, leaving behind everything and everyone they ever knew.  And then...
Savini disappeared. Adini needed Savini. Savini had said that Adini couldn't take care of herself any more than a man could, and it was true. Adini couldn't even light a fire, despite her life at the forge, and cooking was not a skill she had mastered either. Savini was her last link to home, where the two of them had grown up in the same orphanage, the only other familiar face in this strange world of strangers who looked funny and spoke in gibberish. The story of Adini's search for the one last person in the world who knew her.
