The Tales of the Chants
Reeks: The Tales of the Chants
Alexandra Rowland
- High
- in
- the
- mountains,
- there
- is
- a
- ravine.
Across
- the
- ravine,
- a
- bridge.
And
- deep
- at
- the
- bottom
- of
- the
- ravine,
- a
- god.Eisl
- has
- lived
- on
- the
- ledge
- between
- the
- ravine
- and
- the
- cliffs
- since
- he
- was
- born.
- He
- has
- only
- ever
- crossed
- the
- bridge
- once—the
- terror
- of
- the
- god
- dwelling
- far
- beneath
- it
- is
- too
- much
- for
- him
- to
- bear.
- But
- when
- a
- wandering
- storyteller,
- named
- Ylfing
- and
- called
- Chant,
- arrives
- in
- the
- village,
- Eisl's
- longing
- to
- see
- the
- world
- of
- his
- stories
- with
- his
- own
- eyes
- becomes
- too
- powerful
- to
- resist.But
- the
- ravine,
- the
- bridge,
- and
- the
- god
- are
- all
- still
- there,
- and
- if
- Eisl
- wishes
- to
- free
- himself
- and
- cross
- over
- to
- the
- other
- side,
- he
- must
- first
- face
- his
- greatest fear.
