@Dathi - lol - I had to come up with something green. And yes, a few unusual elements are hinted at.

Hi @ColumbusGuy, Yep, it's a long time since the last story - this is a biggie though so I'll be active with posting for quite a while. And yes, answers will come - but so will many more questions.

Chapter 2. The High King pushed all thought of court matters aside and gave full attention to his advisor. "Your report is not as I expected, Uirebon. There is much that concerns me, and much I don't understand. Keryth's vision is being affected and the head pain is so debilitating he can do nothing for hours at a time. During all the months of preparation and treatment there was no mention of any discomfort, let alone this disabling pain." "Yes, my Lord. The effect is unpleasant and

Hi @aditus, Thanks for that - it's nice to hear when something sparks a connection in a reader's mind. There are lots more chapters and I sure hope they hold your interest.

Hi @IBEX, Yep! You're completely correct. They are one and the same - though the Keiran persona hasn't a clue about who he really is.

Hi @Dathi, I'm delighted that you've found the story. It's a neat feeling to be renewing contact with old past readers. It's a new genre but I think the storytelling style is pretty much the same.

Great to have you on board @Daddydavek, Hmm! All I will say is that you are very perceptive. Ditto @Bndmetl

Thanks @Bndmetl Great to hear you're enjoying the story. The next post is roughly 2 weeks away. Lol, and I was worried that, despite stacks of things happening eventually, this introductory chapter might be somewhat quiet as a good attention grabber.

Thanks @JCtoGO2, There's a bit of personality stuff as well as a lead into some of the nature and adventure stuff I like to write. I hope you continue to enjoy.

Widderkin is my first attempt at the Fantasy genre and I hope the story works for a wide range of GA readers. Keryth is transferred to Melbourne, Australia from the Elven Realms in an attempt to 'set his mind straight', where, as Keiran, he starts to face all sorts of peculiar and confronting events with his band of friends. The story (already bigger than Attunga) is not yet finished but my writing presence in GA has been absent for so long I've decided to start posting anyway, and hope there's not much need for later revision. For any interested followers (I hope there are a few ) I plan to post at roughly two to three week intervals, about the amount of time I take to produce a new chapter, until the story finishes and I can speed up the posts. I hope readers will enjoy adventures, drama, magic and, here and there, an occasional smile. Happy reading.

WIDDERKIN. Gliding effortlessly in wide, lazy surveillance circles, the Courser veered for a different view of the sprawling heart of the High Realm. Concepts of magnificence and grandeur were for other minds and the keen eyes regarded the panoply of ramparts, courtyards and tall spires with indifference till movement stirred a primal hunting drive. Recognition of the being below quashed the thought of prey and the pattern of watchful oversight resumed with a long sweep of the High C

Keiran, banished from the Elven Realms, faces curious happenings across different worlds.
