Weary

Dujab's day begins like most days do: with a hot bath. He expects it to continue with breakfast, a few clients seeking his spells or knowledge, and a bit of research. But this isn't a normal day. His bath is interrupted by a mysterious visitor who makes a simple request that sets in motions events that may lead to both of their deaths. But Dujab is not the average wizard: He has skills and knowledge and resources that most don't. The question is: will they be enough?
Weary is a prequel novella for my Angus the Mage series. It would fit in well between The Lake of Scales and The Viper's Fangs. It occurs a few centuries earlier and involves two of the characters that appear in that series.
