In front of me were three poles that had been erected over a pyre filled with wood and brush. I could even see the welcome throne peeking out under the pile shatters so that it would never welcome another.
On those poles were Lindi and her husbands. Each of them tied tightly so that none of them were able to get away, The men had bruises and blood on their faces as if they had been in brawl, Lindi didn't fare much better.
Someone had beat her and her arm looked like it had been torn out of socket. For her to be in such bad condition, her healing abilities must have been stretched to beyond her limits.
I had been so focused on saving my family that hadn't considered to possibility that Dala would use such underhanded means. But I should have, A woman would would try and steal another's child was deranged.
