STORY IDEAS

Torches

A vengeful spirit lurks.

In 1742, rural western villages haven't accepted magic. The village uprising spreads like wildfire across the ignorant plains and swamps of western Jamaa, and it is one Sophie Blackbriar who falls victim to their torches next. Though tranquil in life, she transforms into a furious ghoul threatening to burn up the remnants of her soul clinging to this world if she is not put to rest-- and the only thing strong enough to quench her flames is justice-- not only for herself, but for her fallen kin. With the uprising comes a second fire: Revolution from beyond the shallow, unmarked grave.

Second Child, Restless Child

The exit has always been.

In the year 1575, Jamaa is desperate for mages springing up from the woodwork, as the phantoms have once again appeared to plague the land. Children with the gifts they require are snatched by law from their homes and taken to live at magic training schools across Jamaa. A matron and caretaker in one such school in the Arctic Rookery, Mother Falcon has always opposed these senseless laws, but her cries and her losses to these rules fall upon deaf ears. Likewise, her despairing, alarming urge to attain human flight is discouraged by those around her and dismissed as impractical-- the army doesn't need flight, and the legends of heartstones of sentient flying animals have been ignored through the ages. The only instance of flight Mother Falcon knows is the flight of the passerine, the common blackbird and the songbirds taunting her in the trees. But that is enough to spur her onward, taking four students under her wing and urging herself towards escape from these binding, life-ending laws. First, however, she must realize if she wishes to fly in order to fight for what she loves, or to flee from the life she hates.

In Memoriam

A shorter extension or afterword for Stolid.

Ghost Beneather and Nuxx Papermoon are sent by Valerian Sleepwalker to investigate an abandoned lighthouse on a stretch of windy coast in the north near the mountains of Grand Ravine. A seemingly simple task turns into a bit of an annoyance, as quite irritatingly, Papermoon is once again presented with all sorts of memories. Why is always the question-- why is the trivial past so difficult to deal with? And why does he miss everything so much?
