Des’Tras

One touched by the Ancient Gods, born into the world of matter a conduit to the Ether, Des’Tras, the World Ender, is only whispered legend.  History offers no record of the last.  Most do not believe in Des’Tras any more.  Most.

Consequences of a Life

These are the stories of William Tasker Tarmon, and the extraordinary adventures he had on his quest for knowledge.  Most of all, these are the stories of the lives he touched, and the people he loved.

Empty Shoulder

Kraken opened Ash’s cell and stepped in. Gabb and Kor stepped through behind him and flanked the door. Ash jumped up and faced them. Kraken waved a hand and sat on the bunk. Orange eyes glowing in the lamp light flicked between them. “What can you … [Read more]
