Drinna

The rage can be a powerful ally or a treacherous enemy.

Drinna, a young kunjel, awakes alone and poorly prepared for survival in the vast Sea of Grass. This wasteland is a dangerous place even for those ready to face it—filled with vicious creatures and deadly plants and little water—but all she has is her wits and learning to navigate through. And someone, or something, is stalking her.

In addition to being alone and in danger, Drinna is getting ready to undergo Trakia, a ritual in which kunjels learn to control their ability to rage. Without this sacred training, will she be able to control herself and find her way home? Or will the dreaded rage overwhelm her and lead her to her peril?
