Marked one · Liam's little sister · the siphon · the conduit she never asked to be
Sloane Mairi
She came to Basgiath grieving the brother who died shielding someone else — and aimed all of it at the girl he died for. Then his letters started arriving, one a week. Then she started to thaw.
Liam's sister — blonde, blue-eyed, furious. A red daggertail's rider and a siphon: the one who can move life itself from one body into another. It costs her more than it costs anyone.
