It takes some gumption to claim to be the best tea shop in the city of Kansar, where five ancient roads meet and everyone is selling something. But Yala’s shop has been in her family for three generations and is famed for its brews among warriors and wizards alike. When the Imperial Spell Company claims a monopoly on all magic in Kansar, Yala tries to convince a company henchman that her teas are nothing but ordinary leaves and water.
Kate Heartfield is the author of the Sunday Times bestselling historical fantasy novel The Embroidered Book, the Aurora-winning novel Armed in Her Fashion, and the Nebula-shortlisted novella Alice Payne Arrives, along with dozens of stories. Her interactive fiction projects The Road to Canterbury and The Magician’s Workshop were shortlisted for the Nebula in game writing.

Short but perfectly brewed
I so very much wished there was more, but at the same time, well balanced and delightful.

Steeped in Charm
A genuinely charming flash fiction tale of a magical tea shop operating outside the purview of unnecessary authority and remaining that way.
Such a short and sweet little story that really whet my whistle, but left me absolutely wanting to explore this world so briefly presented.
Magical!

Too short
Nothing amazing… maybe ok for some storytelling time but…
At least not waste of too much time

not enough
as a metaphor for cultural comfort, it’s interesting, but not emphasised enough. as a cute snapshot of a fantastical story with a feminist theme, it was also not standing out enough. whichever way i look at it, i felt it needed a bit more to have it be my cup of tea.
