I have been all over the world and back, in search of knowledge, lore, and of course adventure. Three necessary ingredients for a grand story. My collection of Dirges continues to grow, as more personalities of questionable morals seek me out to tell their story. My favorite locales of course are the Great Kingdoms. I … Continue reading Chord’s World Tour: The Great Kingdoms (part 1)

Chord’s World Tour – Shire
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 – Castin
Castin is a duchy in flux. It is second in wealth only to Shire itself. That is due to the massive numbers of guilds that called the region home. The current Duke, Soren Koranta has taken ill, and hasn't been seen publicly in months. His wife, the Duchess Mira Koranta has taken to running the … Continue reading Chord’s World Tour – Castin
Chord’s World Tour – Vaxin
Vaxin was the first territory to come into being when the fledgeling kingdom of Cheshire expanded. Nestled in the southeast quadrant of Cheshire, it is also the only one of the three other duchies to only have ever had one family, the Vaxins, ruling it since its inception. It's location to the Endless Peak mountain … Continue reading Chord’s World Tour – Vaxin
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
The Fallen: Meet the Cast
Continuing from last post, here are the rest of the protagonists from the Fallen: Loric Quivall - Spire elf archer, one of the famed Gryphon riders of Kor'Korai. Claiming self-imposed exile from the elven city of Kor'Korai, Loric instead seeks adventure as distraction. The rumors of demons are enough to pique the elf's curiosity. Gregor Ataxia … Continue reading The Fallen: Meet the Cast
WIP: The Fallen
The Fallen is a dark fantasy novel that I'm currently about halfway through. The second time. It was originally a short story (roughly 55k words). Everyone who read it, admittedly my friends, loved it. What I found most interesting was that everyone had a different favorite character. For reasons beyond what I originally envisioned. Was … Continue reading WIP: The Fallen
The Rising Darkness
I am quite proud of my Duir'Aion. It is a vibrant world filled with peoples of all kinds. From the noble Shirans of the kingdom of Cheshire, to the naval supremacy of the minotaurs of Maelthas, to the xenophobic undersea kingdoms of the sea elves, the entire world pulses with life. And violence. And death. … Continue reading The Rising Darkness

Tale of a Minor Chord is back from its "final" revision. I'm pretty excited. Got great feedback from my editor. I am quite honored to have a wonderful person to work with. I feel like my writing goals have kicked up a notch by doing so. So Tale of a Minor Chord should be available … Continue reading On to the next!
