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.

Bloodshot

A terrifying silence came upon them. Not even the voices inside her head dared to speak, or perhaps it was out of respect that they stayed quiet.

Serenica guided her men and Essieca further into the woods.

They walked with the healer leading them, barely saying a word, but as they progressed into the stagnated territory of spirits and moss, the voices spoke up again. Danger. That was what they said, and a red light behind Serenica's eyelids got more and more intense.

"You are being watched."

"You are being chased."

At one point the healer thought she heard a rumbling sound, but that, too, was covered up by the whispering soon, and there was really no telling what was real and what was not.

Serenica had seen illusions before, but this was insanity. She felt sorry for Essieca, who had to endure things like this every single day.
