5.9 A Mind to Murder

Location: FubarTimeline: Sixth Age, 53rd Year, Spring My Apocrypha records more events I wasn't aware of at the time. Here we see Kaoz in all his glory - he has The Grim and there is nothing stopping him from returning to Ramos to give the magical dagger to Inanna and advance himself into godhood. Or...

5.8 The Deepest Depths

Location: Akka MountainsTimeline: Sixth Age, 53rd Year, Spring Whilst I was busy working in The Life Labs back at The Caulrdon, Kaoz entered The Deepest Depths which led down to the heart of the Akka Mountains. The secrets paths of the Drokka did not welcome the Myz; they merely tolerated his intrusion, the air growing... Continue Reading →

5.7 By Hook or by Crook

Location: Fubar, Akka, and Nektar's CauldronTimeline: Sixth Age, 53rd Year, Spring Later that night, the moon hung like a jaundiced eye over the silent city of Fubar, but within the palace walls, Ramssee felt the invincibility of a god. Observing him through the shifting ripples of The Eye, I watched as he moved through the... Continue Reading →

5.5 Wicked Games

Location: FubarTimeline: Sixth Age, 53rd Year, Spring I watched through the Eye, the gold-rimmed aperture of my scrying glass rippling like disturbed water. The King’s bedchamber looked like a tomb of velvet and stagnant air, the heavy curtains drawn tight against a world that had moved on without its master. Diked was a pathetic knot...

5.4 Falling Forward

Location: FubarTimeline: Sixth Age, 53rd Year, Spring I continued watching through The Eye - King Diked’s return to the palace was a frantic blur as he scrambled to escape the memories of his struggle with the plague that was destroying his people. Once inside his fortress, he burst through the ornate gilded doors, his lungs... Continue Reading →

5.3 The Plague Doctor

Location: FubarTimeline: Sixth Age, 53rd Year, Spring The King Den felt like home to The Royal Steward as Ramssee sat ensconced in his favorite wingback chair taking in the smells of the chamber - old leather, woodsmoke, and the cloyingly sweet vapor of expensive liquors. It was a room designed for the quiet exercise of... Continue Reading →

4.11 The Great Parkway

Location: The Road to Skarra-BreeTimeline: Summer to Fall Are you starting to dislike poor Emcorae? As I write this Apocrypha I hope that's the case. Don't let A'H hear me saying this, but I do so love this part of the story - the tragic hero sinks deeper into despair and commits evil acts along... Continue Reading →

4.10 Darkness Falls

Location: Pennal to OrkneyTimeline: Sixth Age, 53rd Year, Summer Violence is a symphony, and as I write these lines I'm relishing Emcorae's descent into the dark side. For mortals - whose lifespans are but a breath - there is a precise moment when the soul of a man ceases to be a garden and becomes... Continue Reading →

4.9 The Hunter’s Path

Location: The Road to MonthavenTimeline: Summer How delicious it is to watch a mortal’s ambition collide with the stubborn physics of the earth. Emcorae burned with a fire that could consume a kingdom, yet he was tethered to the rhythmic, plodding gait of a mule. Every league he gained was a battle against the fraying... Continue Reading →

2.2 The Children of Mu – Lemuria

Book II: The Scrolls of LemuriaChapter 2 – The Children of Mu After thinking about what went wrong with the Hyperboreans, I figured maybe relying solely on the mortal Adam and one of Gaia’s creatures to try to produce an intelligent race was a miscalculation by me. Perhaps the mix simply lacked enough divine ‘juice?’ With... Continue Reading →
