I needed to find her as my vision of the woman, was too strong to disregard. She’d been a well-built sturdy young Scot lass with sparkling green eyes and long dark auburn hair which flows to her waist. I had seen her in my dream, dancing at the local Highland Gathering. The young woman of my dream was my destiny. My name’s Mackenzie Sutherland and I’m a Selkie of the Clan Sutherland.

    The selkie placed a gloved hand on the knight’s shoulder as he explained his plan. “The Western Kingdom is vulnerable to attacks currently due to this snowstorm, right?
