Court of Bitter Thorn by Kay L Moody ePub PDF free download – Love could come later—maybe never—but Elora would die before she went a day without lifting her sword. Her father usually sparred with her, but now that he was too busy arranging her marriage to a rich, old merchant, she’d just have to find a new partner herself. Her blade sliced through the brittle red leaves that clung to a bush by her home. Each gave a soft crunch before drifting to the cracked dirt below. The chilly air cooled her brow as she swung the sword again. The leaves would have fallen on their own in another week or two. That made it less satisfying to chop them away, but it was also less destructive. When only bare branches remained on the bush, she took her sword to the trunk of a nearby tree. The sharp metal of her sword cut into the rough wood. Chips of bark flew as she ripped her sword away to do it again. It didn’t take long for the trunk to be covered in gashes. Her mother would have sighed at the sight of it. Her father would have chuckled.
