I’ve looked at this patch of dirt, these rivers, and these mountain ridges all my life. I was born here in 1838. Then, we had an abundance of water, which flowed down creeks and rivers to the sea. I was here when two great armies clashed in civil war and my farm was part of […]

DILLON YATES – REKNOWNED WARLOCK
I’ve never been as firmly attached to this world as Dan. He’s got a wife, a child, a farm and a business – all the things I thought were not important to me. Half of his land should rightly be mine; half of his wealth should rightly be mine. He stole these things from me. […]
JESSE MONRO – TECHIE
I’ve fallen into a world I have a lotta trouble understanding. I survived two tours in the desert war, so I sure as hell should be able to deal with the witchy goings-on in these here hills. I was born and raised not ten miles from the Fields’ farm, so I understand Dan. He was […]
GRANNY ANNA MAE FIELDS – ESTEEMED WISE WOMAN
We have been ravaged by raiders for centuries. First, they took our animal furs and our timber. Then, they took our coal and our sand. Now, they’re stealing our water. My family must act. I remember this land when the Indians lived here and panthers roamed the high ridges. Though I now dwell in the […]
MAGGIE MILLER – WISE WOMAN
When I first met Dan Fields that cold night eighteen years ago, I read his palm and knew he’d traveled from the past and would have an amazing future. I also saw great turmoil confronting him. His young daughter, Anna, has now become my apprentice and I can already see that her powers, though undeveloped, […]
RAD – LIGHT FEY PRINCE
I’ve never had much interest in befriending mortals, although I move among them freely. I can mimic their ways and imitate their speech, so I blend in. I’m always looking for a way they can be useful to me, and I always find one. To the Fey, time is fluid, a concept difficult for mortals […]
LADY LUNA – LIGHT FEY PRINCESS
I have spent several hundred years avoiding humans, but they are damaging our mountain and creating havoc. The water thefts have only intensified my belief that most humans are unscrupulous and greedy. They have no respect for nature or the laws of the universe. Exceptions are the descendants of the Wise Woman, Anna Mae Fields. […]
JOCKO – DARK FEY KING
To say that all mortals are manipulative and treacherous is untrue. Most of them are too stupid to achieve either characteristic. There are a few, however, that excel in these behaviors. I remember Dillon Yates from my youth. He and his cousin, Dan, constantly tried to trick and deceive me. My slower-witted kinsman, Knotch, was […]
MARCOS GARCIA – Woodshop Foreman
When I first came to this mountain, I felt it was a special place, a magical place. Over the years, I’ve seen many strange things here. Although I have no magic, as some here have, I observe nature. Many in my village in Mexico believed in de Hadas, the fairies, and I learned that you […]
THE FEY CAVE
The Fey, a magical tribe living on earth for thousands of years, are thought by some to be descended from the gods. Others think they are gods. Most modern people give up their fascination with fairies when they are old enough to idolize rock stars and sports heroes. Some, however, never loose their devotion, […]
