Kaelin takes a relic from Larkspur's temple, hoping its power will help her escape the life others have chosen for her. Then the storms begin.

As violent weather sweeps the northern wastes, her brother Thorne searches for her among damaged villages and blocked roads. A hunter offers Kaelin help, but a sorceress sees a chance to turn the disaster into power of her own.

Returning the stone will take more than finding a way home. Kaelin must learn what she has broken, accept help from people she has hurt, and work with the brother whose protection she once resented. And while they struggle to stop the storm, their enemies are learning how to draw strength from it.

Ashes of Larkspur is a fantasy novella about a stolen relic, fractured family trust, and the practical work of making amends.
