Return of the Sentinel Times

Recommend

Sentinels are oblivious to their fate & status until a point of crisis.

Some, the majority even, never realise it at all; treading ordinary paths, unknowingly spinning their gifting away on a quiet, wholly unremarkable life. Eventually these still-born sentinels slip soundlessly into their grave, never reaching  that critical point of metamorphosis.

Others however, experience the sentinel change in a revelatory, traumatic moment.

So it was for James Peter Gregory.

Somehow, the blade would not, could not cut his throat. It made no sense. His assailant's eyes, ever darker until the point of attempted and then failed murder lost understanding and gained fear instead. He ran and James slipped down the wall, his back aching but throat fully intact, puking as he did so.
