Larson, Sisters of Shadow and Light is a timeless and fantastical tale of sisterly love and powerful magic The night my sister was born, the stars died and were reborn in her eyes.... Zuhra and Inara have grown up in the Citadel of the Paladins, an abandoned fortress where legendary, magical warriors once lived before disappearing from the world—including their Paladin father the night Inara was born. On that same night, a massive, magical hedge grew and imprisoned them within the citadel. Inara inherited their father’s Paladin power; her eyes glow blue and she is able to make plants grow at unbelievable rates, but she has been trapped in her own mind because of a “roar” that drowns everything else out—leaving Zuhra virtually alone with their emotionally broken human mother. For fifteen years they have lived, trapped in the citadel, with little contact from the outside world...until the day a stranger passes through the hedge, and everything changes.

A half-elf, half-human outcast at birth, Michael was raised in a secluded village by his loving parents, away from the world that hated him. Then, one day, his village was destroyed, and Michael lost everything. His home, his parents, and even his own life. But death was not final for Michael. A mysterious and powerful entity called the Divine rose him from the dead to accomplish a mighty task. In the fantasy land of Anathoth, where different races have been taught to hate and distrust each other, Michael must become the hero they desperately need. Even though the land has shunned and mostly forgotten the Divine, Michael must learn to trust Him because a terrifying threat creeps ever closer. An ancient evil from the mountains to the west is coming, bringing death and destruction with it. Aided by special gifts given to him by the powerful Divine, Michael sets out on a journey where he finds himself in unfamiliar and uncomfortable territory. He meets both allies that he must convince to work together and enemies intent on his destruction. Can Michael overcome the obstacles in his way and convince the land to come together to face the ancient foe? Or will the wickedness that banished the Divine and taught the land to hate each other allow the ancient evil to conquer them all?

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Evidentiality written by Alexandra Y. Aikhenvald and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 929 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a thorough, systematic, and crosslinguistic account of evidentiality, the linguistic encoding of the source of information on which a statement is based. In some languages, the speaker always has to specify this source - for example whether they saw the event, heard it, inferred it based on visual evidence or common sense, or was told about it by someone else. While not all languages have obligatory marking of this type, every language has ways of referring to information source and associated epistemological meanings. The continuum of epistemological expressions covers a range of devices from the lexical means in familiar European languages and in many languages of Aboriginal Australia to the highly grammaticalized systems in Amazonia or North America. In this handbook, experts from a variety of fields explore topics such as the relationship between evidentials and epistemic modality, contact-induced changes in evidential systems, the acquisition of evidentials, and formal semantic theories of evidentiality. The book also contains detailed case studies of evidentiality in language families across the world, including Algonquian, Korean, Nakh-Dagestanian, Nambikwara, Turkic, Uralic, and Uto-Aztecan.
