The Scribbly Man The Children of D'Hara, episode 1

From the internationally bestselling author of the Sword of Truth series comes aÊnew Richard and Kahlan novella.Ê"They are the monsters under the bed when you are little, the shape just caught outÊof the corner of your eye when you thought you were alone,Êthe shadow ofÊsomething in a dark cornerÊthat surprises you and then isn't there. They stop youÊdead withÊa knot of unexpected terrorÊin the pit of your stomach. We have all seenÊfleeting glimpses of them. Never long enough to see them as I saw them, but it wasÊthem. I recognized it the instant I saw it.ÊWe've all seen flashes of them,Êthe dark shadow just out of sight.ÊThey couldÊbriefly terrify us before but never hurt us because they came from so far distant.ÊThey were never able to fully materialize in our world so we saw only transientÊglimpses of them, the shape of them if the light was just right, if the shadows wereÊdeep enough . . .Êif you were afraid enough. I think that the star shift has brought us closer to their realm so that they nowÊhaveÊthe power to step into our world and hurt us." ÑKahlan Amnell
