Dreamsnake
They called the healer Snake, and she bore the name proudly, for the medicine she distilled form the venom of the viper she carried with her was a potent cure; and the soothing power of her other companion, the alien dreamsnake, banished fear. But the primitive ignorance of those she served killed her dreamsnake and wrecked her career, for dreamsnakes were dreadfully rare, and Center would not grant her another. Snake's only hope was to find a new dreamsnake, and on her quest, she was pursued by two implacable followers, one driven by love, one by fear and need. .
