Cheshire is known as the jewel of the Great Kingdoms. If that is the case, then Shire is the perfect diamond in that collection that makes up Cheshire.

Author: Y.F. Desince, II
I am a storyteller; a bard incarnate. I craft worlds to entertain, to terrify, to make you feel something real. Entire civilizations rise and fall at the stroke of a pen. Let me take you on a journey that reframes the familiar and dares you to see deeper.
I am a father of eight; though only two share my blood, all hold my heart. My youngest, born with cerebral palsy, carries a weight I can hardly imagine, yet bears it with more grace than I ever could. She grounds me. My family is my center.
The stories I tell — the magic, the monsters, the myths, the madness — all of it, in the end, is for them.

Chord’s World Tour – Perth
In this guide to Cheshire, we shall take a look at the smallest of the duchies, Perth. As is the case with the duchies of Cheshire, the region is named after its Duke, Eric Perthius. If the Perthius family were to be replaced, the duchy would be renamed. Shirans are fairly pragmatic about the changes. … Continue reading Chord’s World Tour – Perth
Chord’s World Tour – Cheshire
Ah me, One of my favorite kingdoms to visit is the realm of Cheshire. I recommend this kingdom highly if you're not from here. One of the reasons is they are the most tolerant of "monstrous" races of all the human kingdoms. To begin with, Cheshire is the jewel of the Great Kingdoms, which comprises … Continue reading Chord’s World Tour – Cheshire

We met the heroes last time, now meet the villain of the novel. The devil prince Y'Thraak. Y'Thraak was banished eons ago to the Gray Wastes, which is where gods go to die, if not destroyed outright by a rival. Often the god is a minor one whose worship has dwindled to nothing. The Gray … Continue reading The Fallen – Meet the Cast
Creation
To go forward, you need to know where you came from. That philosophy applies to pretty much everything. Even if you decide to ignore your past (and we all do to some extent), your starting point starts from that moment (or as far back as you care to admit). For my 'A Darkness Rising' setting … Continue reading Creation
