Hello! I'm a long term reader of The Coppermind, but a newb contributer. I've been wanting to start contributing for a while and finally made the plunge (in a very small way so far :))

Interlude I-2: Ym

Characters

• Ym (Point of view)
• Nale
• An unnamed boy

Plot summary

Ym is in his shop trimming a small block of wood. The cobbler had been taught to make the wooden forms himself, so he does. It's the way it's been done for centuries, which is good enough for him.

A spren moves in the dimness to his right. It has been coming around more often lately, and Ym had never seen one like it before. As it moves it looks like specks of light, like those from a piece of crystal suspended in a sunbeam. When it stops, light creeps upward from it, like small plants growing, which withdraw when it starts moving again.
