I'm starting to think of creating an interconnected universe.
This is the story of Tamsyn who is in another character of mine. This is not part of the story but it introduces another character from a separate book. She is not the daughter of Shango. She is the descendant of the volcano Orisha but possesses similar abilities to Nikola. This is expanding upon the concept of demi-Orisha offspring. This offers a different perspective on how people view the "Orisha blood".
It was nearing dusk when we drove into the village. At every house, we passed the villagers took a moment to stare us down. I tried to smile at them, but after the third sour expression I received, I shifted back to looking forward. I wondered if they recognized me. Perhaps it was because my hair was tidier that they turned up their noses. My childhood hair had the roar of a mane, but I had tamed it since. That must be it. My hair was too tame for them to recognize me.
