The call of a vulture was the sound that brought Alaysha back to awareness.
Il was always the shriek of the carrion bird that brought her around afterwards, like the sacred minerals tribal shamans used to bring a dream-walker back to reality. It wasn't as though she fainted during battle -- would to the Deities she could -- but rather, she sort of went int herself and hid there, somewhere inside, while the deed was done. After all there years, she supposed her psyche had trained itself to recover only when it heard the sure signs of scavenge and she could know the fighting was over. Like now.
She dreaded the sound of the vulture like a dying man would, except for different reasons: while the dying dreaded the sound of imminent death, it reminded her that she still lived.

Résumé
Witches of Etlantium ~ Book 1
Enter an ancient world filled with magic, romance, sorcery, and danger--a place where legends are born, wars fought, and love is denied . . .
All power has a high price, and no one knows that better than Alaysha, a formidable and beautiful water witch living in the realm of Sarum. As daughter of the most powerful man in the city, she should be free to do as she pleases, but Alaysha lives as an outcast among her people and she’s forced to use her unique abilities as a weapon. Now if she could just learn to control her gifts.
After her tyrannical father forces Alaysha to slaughter an entire village of innocents with her vast elemental power, she starts to question his authority. . .and her blind obedience. Especially, when the charismatic and handsome Yenic somehow manages to escape her deadly ability and reveals that she’s not alone.
If Alaysha hopes to gain her freedom, manage her power, and protect those she loves, she will have to find the courage to defy the nefarious men trying to control her. Yet she soon realizes that there’s much more to her power than Alaysha ever dreamed, and loyalty means far more than just sharing blood.
