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.

Traitors

There was an inn that a certain pirate had frequented in a life that had contained a lot more booze than his current one. It was still standing due to its sturdy build.

Serenica found Heike snoozing off over a tankard of ale.

"Wake up," she said harshly and slapped him.

He opened his eyes, but it was apparent that he couldn't see her at all. So twisted was the direction of his gaze.

"Have you been telling about my personal things around here?" Serenica asked. "This includes Kinley."

"What's so personal about it?" the drunken boatswain asked. "Everyone knows we killed him."

"I killed her," Serenica corrected. "How can you be so stupid?"

"Eh?"

"Now the entire city thinks the fire was my fault."

"Well, it sort of was," Heike mumbled, but whatever he was about to say next never came out.

Serenica clenched her right hand into a merciless fist. She had hit men before. She had enough confidence that she could do it again.
