Cobal and company followed the group of mages to the royal quarters. Barradan had permission to go to the quarters of the former crown prince, albeit only under the watchful eye of four senior palace guards. With Cobal there that probably wasn’t necessary, but having experienced the strange magics that are at play first hand, … Continue reading Vol 2: Chapter Five – The scene of the crime

Chapter Two – The princess and the snow storm
Maharis II “If you don’t mind me calling you that, of course,” the elderly man said to the woman standing behind the bar. She picked up another patron’s empty glass and doused it in water before cleaning it with a cloth, never quite breaking eye contact with him.

Looking Back on NaNoWriMo 2022
It’s December. Can you believe that? This year was both incredibly slow yet flew by. Time perception is such a fascinating thing to me.
