Read this as part of the collection "Children of the Gates" which contains two Andre Norton novellas.
Yurth Burden was originally published September of 1978 by DAW. A traveler on a pilgrimage meets up with one who is basically her enemy, and the two learn a lot about their history while also battling external forces. I really liked the description of her illusion powers. The ending here has a solid resolution.
