Summary:

Kalessin had left a daughter in their care, Tenar and Ged together, with the promise that they would give her back again in turn. Or, at least, that was what Tenar had thought the dragon had asked for, there at the cliffside on the Overfell. It wasn’t until the season’s end that she realized other possible meanings to Kalessin’s parting words.

Summary:

Never had Tenar’s feet been more glad to tread the goat-path up the Gontish mountain to where the Old Mage’s House stood. There was new lightness in her every lineament, the lightness of change and the lightness of loss.

Series: Part 3 of If all the world were apple pie and all the sea were ink
Summary:

She had been living on Gont for twelve years – long enough to think of herself as Goha, even in the privacy of her own thoughts – before she found reason to travel to the village of Ten Alders. Apple was eight years old, Spark just six, and there was much to do to pack them up with all their accoutrements before she could undertake the journey.

Summary:

It was not yet dawn when Ged woke, shaken, in their bed in the house of Ogion. Beside him in their bed Tenar lay sleeping, beautiful bright-shining dragon-wine-in-the-mouth Tenar, but he did not turn to look at her. In his dream, the spectre of Elfarran had had Tenar's face: Tenar's face as it had been when he'd first met her as a girl on Atuan, pale and weighed down with the heavy black inky fall of her hair, and she had wailed as the old gods he'd called up by his hubris had eaten her.
