Water Belongs to the Dead: Heart of the Witch

A young healer woman sets sail to kill her enemies and steal the heart of the prince her rival desires. She encounters deadrousers, cannibals and lunatics as she hunts for epic treasures and love. She finds out she can be everything she wants to be: a doctor and a healer of thieves, a lover and an impressively rich spirit aunt, but the price she has to pay will be paid in blood. Serenica Ingram is a brave witch in her twenties. She would do anything to be even better at healing. Mariana Kinley, a witch-hating witch and a ruthless businesswoman, doesn't like competition and drives Serenica out of her home. She joins the pirate crew of the necromancer, Captain Spade. The city of Neul that Serenica calls home is a hostile and degenerate place, ripe with rich merchants and homeless witches, but the mythical island of outlaws, Aja Vana, is even stranger. The western islands are populated by outcasts and Serenica would do anything to avoid them. Becoming a rich and respected pirate healer isn't easy, especially with both other witches and royals wanting Serenica dead. She has to sail to the ends of the known world just to get her stolen property back, and even harder will be to catch the eye of the Dreamer, the fair prince whom Kinley also desires, while fulfilling the promise to kill a king.

The Treasure Map

"Great," Spade groaned. "Now we're supposed to be excited about a map that might not even exist that's in the possession of a fainting dressmaker. I'll bet five gold coins that said map leads to a supply of handkerchiefs."

"No, I saw his eyes," the first mate said. "He was dead serious about it. We should wait for him to come back to his senses."

Serenica had no opinion to voice on this matter. She had never seen a glimpse of a treasure map, real or fake, and she did not know which one they were discussing.

"What can we do? He isn't even conscious," Serenica said.

"If anyone knows how to wake someone up, it's you," Spade said, rolling his eyes. "You're the healer here."

"Oh, all right, then. I will show you my secret trick."

Serenica bent over the fainted man and slapped him as hard as she could.

"Ow!" Swordly exclaimed. "I was only pretending to be unconscious. I wanted to know how you'd feel about my offer."
