The Fuller Life
Book Three of The Longer Life
Cae has spent two years getting good at staying. She has a coat hook by the back door, a mug that lives on the second shelf, and a morning routine at the hot springs she no longer calculates the cost of. Thornhallow has become home - or close enough that she's stopped checking where the exits are.
Then the pass opens, and the world remembers she exists.
A town a day's walk down the mountain has a sick water source and forty people who need help only Cae and her apprentice can give. It should be simple: pack a bag, fix the problem, come home. But the road doesn't end at Verdenmere. Somewhere past it is a city, a hundred-year memorial for a war Cae actually fought, and an invitation she's been carrying in her coat pocket without opening.
For three centuries, Cae has been two people - the practical, dry-humored healer's colleague who fixes things before anyone notices they were broken, and the archmage from the songs, the one who ended the world's worst war and then quietly walked away from the story. She has gotten very good at keeping the two apart.
This is the trip where that stops working.
With her apprentice discovering that the world outside the valley is not nearly as kind as home, and a friend who has spent a year quietly working out exactly who Cae is. Cae is about to find out what happens when you stop editing yourself in front of people who already chose you - pocket contents and all.
The Fuller Life is the third book in The Longer Life, a cozy fantasy series about hot springs, found family, and the specific relief of being fully known. New readers are welcome - Cae will catch you up. She's economical about it.
