Fortune's Fool (2007)
“Katya got along perfectly well with her. She was clean, polite, a little shy, but just as determined to find a way out of this captivity as Katya was. More than that, she better understood the ramifications of this terrible desert than any of the rest of them.No, the one that was trying to kill the rest of the girls was a Rusalka.How and where the Jinn had gotten hold of her, Katya could not imagine. Why he had stolen her, she also had difficulty in understanding. This one was not a ghost; she ...was a true water spirit, which did make her something of a rarity, and indeed, did make her very, very magical.But—She was vicious. She had taken over the fountain as soon as she was put down, and the first attempt at a friendly overture by the young sorceress was met with slashing talons. She drowned one of the Jinn’s men the very first night; after that he made the garden off-limits to them, which was a mixed blessing, because even though it meant there were no more guards posted in the garden itself, it also meant that the Rusalka could do whatever she wanted there.And what she wanted was to kill everything that wasn’t her.Now, she was a water spirit, and as such, Katya could probably control her.MoreLess
