"You know that better than anyone.""Yes," Ravena says, her jade eyes twinkling, "but we all need Messengers of Light from the Goddess and the Fey."Savannah moans and waves her hands in surrender. "Okay, I give up," she concedes. "What did the cards say?"Ravena lifts the kitten and kisses his rosy nose. "Do not turn away this Messenger of Light," she says, softly. "He could be a faery of good fortune in disguise."
There's nothing worse than wet socks, and if you have to slog through the rain and snow, there's a good chance your feet will get soaked if you don't have a good pair of boots.
