Annals of the Moon – Vampires (part 1)

July 27, 2025 ~ Y.F. Desince, II ~ Leave a comment

Oh, I'm sure if I asked you about vampires, you'd tell me the juicy good stuff. Immortal, mostly. Exceptionally handsome or beautiful. Eyes that can pierce and charm your very soul. Of course there is the hunger for blood thing, and weaknesses to sunlight, silver, holy weapons and wooden stakes. So if in your enthusiasm, … Continue reading Annals of the Moon – Vampires (part 1)

Chord’s World Tour – The Forest of Souls (part 2)

January 19, 2022 ~ Y.F. Desince, II ~ Leave a comment

There are few things in this world that I am generally afraid of. No, Draen Do'Gra does not cause me fear. Neither does his exquisite wife Kor'rieanna Auvryani the dark elf queen. They can destroy me in an instant, but they have no reason to do so. They have my respect and adoration, especially the … Continue reading Chord’s World Tour – The Forest of Souls (part 2)

Something borrowed, Something new

May 29, 2020 ~ Y.F. Desince, II ~ Leave a comment

Duir'Aion, the world of my creation is a great source of pride for me. I have had the pleasure of fleshing it out for decades. For the longest time, I just used it for background in my D&D games. It occurred to me to write and published them, only recently. After an attempt to publish … Continue reading Something borrowed, Something new

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. Seat of the kingdom, this massive city is where the Argent Throne resides. King Armer XI and his wife Queen Selene Armbrose reside in Shire Castle, as … Continue reading Chord’s World Tour – Shire

Chord’s World Tour: Elves

July 3, 2019August 23, 2019 ~ Y.F. Desince, II ~ Leave a comment

Ahh, elves. Are there any creatures more beautiful, elegant and deadly than the elves? One could argue fey, but technically speaking, elves are descended from those magic folk too. While they no longer have ties to the fairy realm, a touch of magic still resides among the race. The elves of Duir'Aion are a varied … Continue reading Chord’s World Tour: Elves

Starting Over

March 17, 2019March 21, 2019 ~ Y.F. Desince, II ~ Leave a comment

This is my first post in a long time. Life happens. I have had to re-prioritize things in my life and that includes my writing. So I am in the process of streamlining my various blogs into a more user friendly experience. I may archive or remove old posts as I do this. I may … Continue reading Starting Over

Bloody Skulls

December 29, 2013 ~ Y.F. Desince, II ~ Leave a comment

Here's the first chapter in a new story I started. Originally I had planned on a short story, but the Kruuj, the Grand Justicar, the Allfather and the Church of the Vigilant Phoenix would have none of that. They insisted that their story be told in full. And so begins the tale of forces that … Continue reading Bloody Skulls

Meet The Cast (part 2)

February 25, 2013February 25, 2013 ~ Y.F. Desince, II ~ Leave a comment

Here are more members of the Fallen trilogy: Gregor Abraxus – The hunter, younger brother of Duram Abraxus. Like his brother, he seeks the ultimate hunt, and he became a paladin in part because he knows evil is drawn to the paladin’s light, like a moth to a flame. Gregor has earned the name Dragon … Continue reading Meet The Cast (part 2)
