The Winnowing Flame is a trilogy of novels written by Jennifer Williams: The Ninth Rain, The Bitter Twins, and The Poison Song.The story is set in the world of Sarn - a world with a long history of conflict against an extraterrestrial foe, the Jure'lia (or "worm people"), who descended from the skies in their flying Behemoths to wage war against the people of Sarn, killing anything and anyone they come across before coating the land in a poisonous layer of varnish. Only the Eborans, blessed by the great tree Ygseril, were able to lead the defense of Sarn, fighting alongside mythical war beasts birthed from pods that fell from Ygseril's boughs in a "Rain". But, at the end of the Eighth Rain, the Jure'lia vanished, and the tree-father's leaves withered away as it died, leaving the people of Ebora both without the unique sap that prolonged their agelessness and without the war beasts.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Now, the land of Sarn is largely peaceful, albeit scarred by the centuries of war with the worm people - Behemoth wreckages lie abandoned throughout the lands, haunted by bizarre creatures known as "parasite spirits", and numerous areas of the world grow Wild and dangerous due to the poison of the Jure'lia seeping deep into the land. After seeing a parasite spirit in the Wild, a wealthy vintner named Lady Vincenza "Vintage" de Grazon decides to leave her home and vineyards to do what few have done before - research and study the remnants and relics of the Jure'lia left scattered throughout Sarn. Along the way, she recruits Tormalin the Oathless, an Eboran swordsman who abandoned his dying homeland, and the fell-witch Noon, who managed to escape the Winnowry, where women of Sarn are imprisoned simply for the crime of being born fell-witches.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The three of them set out on a trek through the Wilds, studying the landscape and narrowly avoiding the clutches of the Winnowry agent sent to recapture Noon. Meanwhile, in Ebora, Tormalin's sister, Hestillion, senses an ancient presence within the corpse of Ygseril, and hatches a plot to revive the long-dead root-mother no matter the cost... | |

The Atoner: Hestillion survives the events of the series, but it's implied that she will spend the rest of her long life making up for the irreperable damage she caused to Sarn and its people. | |

Beta Couple: Bern and Aldasair, while not without their difficulties, have a much more successful and stable relationship than the series' primary pairing: Tormalin and Noon. | |
