The Runaways - Don’t Lose Hope #1
‘Guess what?’ asked Ka’harja as he poked his mother’s nose again. He continued when she met his eye with a tired grin. ‘You’re great.’
It’s been 9 years since Ka’harja’s parents tried to murder him and he was forced to flee Heck’ne. It was by luck alone that he escaped over the country border and met Distro Nigelle; a young alchemist who raised him as her apprentice and son.
He should have known better than to get involved with Heck’ne again. But when a fellow runaway shows up on his doorstep with her mother and newborn son, Ka’harja doesn’t think twice about offering them refuge.
His kindness soon leads him to disaster as his new friends are followed by old foes and, with the loss of the home that saved his life all those years ago, Ka’harja has no choice but to travel to a foreign town to start anew.
