Voice of the Mountain Snippet
Just a short snippet of my WIP for anyone who’s interested.

Clang!
The impact of metal on metal sends vibrations through my arms, threatening to make me lose my grip. I grit my teeth and push my opponent back. I swing at his side, trying to get under his shield, but I’m not fast enough. I’m about to go for another swing, when a familiar voice calls to me.
“Hold!” It’s Celend, General of the Royal Army. “Princess Korli, I must speak to you!”
I hold up my balled fist to signal my sparring partner to back down, and walk over to the slightly taller Dwarf. “What is it, Celend?”
“Your father is calling a meeting of the Leadership Council. We are both needed in the council chamber in precisely one hour.”
An hour. That should give me just enough time to clean up and change. “I’ll return to the palace at once.”
