Sarah’s Farewell is a Portallas novella that tells some of the back-story about one of the main characters from the Portallas series of books. Sarah is a young Fixer, someone who makes and mends things, from the northern town of Jemarrah in the magical world of Forestium. We first meet Sarah in Forestium: The Mirror Never Lies, which is book one in the Portallas series. In Forestium: The Mirror Never Lies, Sarah is befriended by Joshua, a young Woodsman from a distant village who has set off on a journey to find the truth about his father. Sarah herself is travelling the land on a journey of discovery—a sort of modern day gap year. In Sarah’s Farewell, we discover how it came to be that she has embarked on her journey.
