Part Seven: The Coming Storm Chapter Twenty YAVARA I blasted through the roof the chieftain's hut. I didn't stop for their exclamations, nor to see their faces of wonder before I scorched through the sky. Prestira's dying thoughts were echoing in my mind. They took her, she said, they took Elena! Stay with me! It's too late. It's all my fault; I did...
Out of the harsh and blinding blizzards of the East, tread three heroes, their tired and bedraggled bodies evidences of their trials and tribulations, silhouetted against the low winter sun. Against all odds, this unlikely band of heroes did what no other group of adventurers had done before: slay the evil witch. Eight had set out on this mythic quest. Three...
Chapter 18 Aldwyn sat at the fireside in his quarters. Witnessing the execution of the traitor that afternoon had left him unsettled. Normally, he would have taken some form of satisfaction in his work. Also he would have taken some joy in the knowledge that the lady was safe and the criminal was dead, but he felt none of this, only vague uncertainty. The...
Auborn Streele rode her swift, powerful horse through the hills of Karameikos, leading her small group of warriors to join the forces at Castellan Keep. Darkness was beginning to fall, and although she and her men were all seasoned warriors, they were in most dangerous territory, and she strongly wished to cover the few remaining miles before nightfall, to b...

Angie has also taken this concept and written her own version, which she will publish...
Ethine's heart was racing, tears stinging her eyes. It made no sense. The knight with the green eyes, the Unseelie knight - here. Looking for her. How? Why? Her first instinct had been her brother, but he'd said that he hadn't sent him? So, why had he come? For her? It didn't seem possible. Watching him walk away had been horrible - she'd felt abandoned, had...
*Sooner than expected but here's the next episode. ;-) It's great to see this idea of mine getting read and commented on so much. :-) In this episode Iphigenia and Ulric have to deal with an elf knight, wizards, and some frustration. * 04 - Winter City Iphigenia and Ulric breathed hard when she pulled her bloody sword out of the last slain goblin's stom...
An historical mystery written by request of my editor. August 1098 "God's Wounds, it's hot!" The grizzled soldier removed his leather cap and mopped his brow with a filthy rag.
