I, too, wonder about this bird in this mystical world... Luther studied the bird for a moment, then smiled. ‘Perhaps you can help me, little bird,’ he said. The bird chirped at him some more. ‘Pray tell, how may I rescue my friend and defeat the Dark Lord with just two knights? Show me the way, little bird. Or better still, perhaps you could summon for me all the knights of the Order of the Dragon, and an army to go with them, for I feel that surely this is what we will need.’ Once more the tiny bird chirped at the knight, its shrill voice loud in the quiet of the early morning, then with a flap of its wings, it was gone.

I take it then their ability to use the portal is forever banned from the following, is the ability to use it from the other side possible? Of course, Caleb knew nothing of this. He didn't know that by using the massive surge of energy from a failed sacrifice, a Consort might "overload" the portal, ripping a hole back to the human realm that would seal behind whoever passed through, trapping them forever, stripping them of their demonic power but returning their soul to the real world. Where the portal is closed to them, are the others that are also closed, or open to them? If not, how would these scavengers return them to Silas?

Just so much fun watching these folks organically grow...and good luck on the house!!!

Loved this chapter and the discusssion on transitioning and why can't I find someone like... the rubber man?” “Something like that. They say he’s one of the best contortionists in the country” “I can believe that. Should any human be able to fold themselves up so tight, they can rest their head on their own bum?” asked Susan

Oh my...what thoughts must happen.... Rick lifted his tea, perfectly composed. “Motivation takes many forms.” He turned and walked toward the bedroom. “Wait—where are you going?” Liam asked, interest sharpening immediately. Rick glanced back over his shoulder. “Since you can’t solve your problem,” he said lightly, “I’ll take care of mine.”

And..who was that white-haired person Finn got a glimpse of???

The sins of complacency...

Thank you for this....

Loved this!!!

At the risk of sounding like a pathetic suck-up, your talent shines, and perhaps you could find a half hour a day to ease our symptoms of withdrawal!!!

Yes please and thanks

So...a girlfriend, perhaps someone from the 'Ladies' division of the Hells Angels????

There will be copies in other places Tarquin can't touch...

Amen, brother, Oliver is a putz, it is like he's stuck in a TV show rerun, time and time again he sees the light and folds like a cheap house of cards...pathetic, simply pathetic...did I say pathetic??? Yawn.....

Well said!!!

As much as we appreciate all you have done in creating GA, your descriptive writing talents are sorely missed on these pages!

Like many others, more please! And where might we find your submission to the anthology and title please and thanks!!

The new squires are finding out that their lives are no longer part of the innocence of the young. And while life, even for young children, was fraught with the day to day challanges of daily living. Now they find themselves belonging to the keep, manor, and villages; their every move will be watched to see if they are worthy of the respect of all. There will be challenges from their elders and contemporaries to see how they measure up. They will be probed, taunted, and challenged. Let's see how they measure up. If they remember the lessons Kalen imparted, they will do just fine!!!

I take solace in the following: it will take time, and remember folks pay the attorneys as much as you can as you go... The judge lifted her hand. "I'm not finished." She looked directly at Liam. "Mr. Hart, if the court grants temporary transparency and limited disclosures, you will establish a clean signatory structure immediately. Independent trustee or neutral administrator. Documented and court-supervised. No informal channels. No side arrangements." Liam's voice was quiet. "Yes, Your Honor." The judge's gaze slid to Marina's counsel. "And Ms. Velluto's signatory authority will be removed from the entities described in the motion pending review, so long as the petitioner complies with the clean structure conditions." Marina's counsel's face remained composed, but Hudson saw the flicker, panic buried under professionalism. I hope to all heck we go down the stereotypical road in "the destruction" of the relationship between Hudson and Liam....While I understand it is the job of the author to attract and engage readers, and I can't quibble with his story and the way it has proceeded, if there is to be a break-up in the relationship...please, for the love of whatever, keep it brief... That's my story, and I am sticking to it... Did you say the next chapter is ready?

What about the Powerball and Lucky For Life tickets??? What is Liam up to??? A lovely chapter!!

Cockroaches...brrr...no thanks!! Blaise just can't keep his eyes to himself...

I get the feeling someone's cornflakes just got pissed on...Don't forget Varilik is from Orinovo, or is this a red herring?

Hopefully they have an honest conversation tomorrow...

What could possibly go right/wrong...no wonder Will flipped at the beginning of this story...jeezeus
