Alec was excited to go visiting with Kyle and Tony.
He loved meeting new people. His sunny disposition and caring nature drew people to him like flies to honey. He was a glass-half-full type of guy.
The boys had packed basic, cover most situations, backpack and transported themselves to the wharf on Kazan Island. Their sudden appearance caused a bit of a stir.
The Therians had heard the rumours of wizards being back but had decided it wasn’t their problem. To have three of them appear amongst them suddenly made it their problem. They urgently sent a message to the Queen.
The court was assembled as they were discussing the expansions they needed. Food and increased housing were two hotly debated topics on the table. When the phone rang on the Queen’s end of the table, they all stopped talking and looked at it.
She picked it up. They watched as she listened to the message. They saw her pale and say, “Please escort them here.”
They watched as she carefully replaced the receiver and then she stood. “We have visitors. Our Master, the Gold Wizard, had returned. He just appeared on the wharf with two other wizards,” she informed them.
Lord Rail stood. He thumped the table and then said aggressively, “We don’t acknowledge the wizards as our masters.”
The Queen looked at him. She tightened her lips and replied, “Our ancestors signed the charter. We have little choice.”
“But Que was our master, not the Gold Wizard,” Lady Cede said in her whiny voice.
“Not true,” the Queen said. “Que brought us here, but, in our histories, he made sure the ancestors knew that the islands belonged to the Gold Wizard. Should a new Gold Wizard come, he is the legal owner, according to Que’s writings and our copy of the charter.”
“We are just the tenants. We know for a fact we can’t dispute this. Que said he had hidden copies of the agreements and the Gold Wizard would be able to find them to prove his claim, should we dispute it.”
“He has to find them first,” Lord Rail growled.
Lady Cede snorted rudely and sneered at him, “And how are you going to stop him?”
“The faeries got rid of Que, I’m sure we can get rid of this usurper,” he replied pompously.
“Yes, sending Que here was getting rid of him, wasn’t it?” Lady Cede sneered again and snorted out a laugh that grated on everyone in the room. Several sniggers around the council chamber could be heard.
“Well come what may, our Wizard is here now. So, what are we going to let him see?” the Queen said.
His oldest daughter Piper answered, “Whatever he wants to see. He appeared, you said. Didn’t Que have the ability to transport himself? If these wizards wish to, he can go wherever he wants. Personally, it’s time for us to come out of the shadows.”
Piper was one of the younger set who supported inclusion into the world. She was ecstatic to hear the wizards were here. She believed their people had a lot to offer the rest of the world. It would also solve a lot of their current problems if they could expand.
They were interrupted by a knocking on the chamber door. They all turned in time to see three very handsome young men walk into the chamber.
Lady Cede gasped. “A Giant! How is that you are free to be here and a wizard?” she blurted out.
Kyle and Tony both turned to look up at Alec. “By the Gods Tony, he is bloody giant, isn’t he?” Kyle lowered his voice into a stage whisper, “I heard a rumour he’s giant in other places as well.”
Alec blushed, as several sniggers and giggles came from the people sitting in the chamber. Kyle turned, and his eyes sought out the Queen. He bowed in a very courtly manner. Tony and Alec emulated him. Kyle then stood and introduced them.
“Your Majesty, please let me introduce my friends. The not quite so giant gentleman to my right is my apprentice, Tony Vella. He is the Wizard of the Roses. The slightly taller fellow is the Quartz Wizard Alec Shaman, and he is indeed a descendant of the Giants that were brought to Utopia and placed on Rahia Island.”
“The spells holding his people to the island were recently removed, and they are now free to join the wider world. As the Giants on Rahia Island are effectively my subjects, I thought it might be nice to visit others who are also under my protection, so here I am.”
Tony butted in, “His Expansiveness is the Gold Wizard Kyle Vella. We thank you for allowing us an ordinance. We are not here to interfere or take over. We mealy wish to make sure your people are content and offer any assistance we can.”
Alec had been looking at the people in the chamber and then focused on the Queen, “Kyle, she is a mage.”
Kyle and Tony also focused on her. “Well, well, this is interesting. Do you have wizards and are their more mages here?” Kyle asked.
Queen Selin said, “No, we have only the one mage box, and it is always held by the King or Queen.”
“Why are you telling him this?” exploded Lord Rail.
Kyle swivelled his eyes to the man and looked at him hard. “Because unlike you sir, she knows that I would know if she tried to lie to me. Tell me one truth and one lie, sir,” Kyle said.
“We don’t want your help. We don’t acknowledge wizards as our rulers,” the man spat out.
Kyle looked around the room and then started walking around it. He listened to the thoughts being tossed around. There was fear in the room, but also excitement and even hope.
“Two half-truths. If you had had said ‘I’, they would have both been truths. However, not all in this chamber support your views. In fact, I get the impression that should you hold a secret vote, the dissenters would be greatly over-ruled by the majority.”
Again, he listened and watched. He picked out the supporters more clearly. He picked the most fearful of changing and the ones who were fence-sitting.
“Hmm ... I have a feeling much is hidden. You are not a backward farming and fishing community. You are advanced. You have technologies I’ve not seen in other countries on Utopia. You were not involved in the war, and I believe the weather shield the Queen maintains is why your development wasn’t stifled. How am I doing your majesty?”
Kyle raised his eyes at the shocked looks on their faces. He knew he was cheating, but Lee always said reconnaissance could save a lot of problems later. He had already been for a look-see before he brought Tony and Alec with him.
He, Lee and Sean had a serious discussion about why the people here wanted to stay hidden. That was the real reason he was here. Kyle loved solving mysteries. Plus, he and Lee wanted these people to join the rest of the world.
Other members of the crew also had lovely holidays. Lady Mary Nash took the other two Lieutenants’ home with her. She had been having fun screwing them both on alternate nights on the ships. Nads and Ace had a lovely time with Mary. Both were surprised to find she was only a couple of years older than they were. The boys did have quick visits with their families but otherwise stayed with Mary. They were fine with them both fucking Mary together but a bit more hesitant about getting...
Chapter 6 - A Death in the Family Three months later "Kristina, hey it's Saoirse." "Hello Saoirse, how are you?" "Fine, I guess... Do you have time to talk?" "Sure, what's up?" Kristina asked, sitting up in her chair, her antennae up and alert. "It's my dad. He died of a heart attack at the mill today. Just dropped dead there in front of all his coworkers." "Oh my god, Saoirse! I... I'm so sorry!" "Holy hell that fucker Minos! How could he be so stupid? We...
We had arrived. One hundred and sixty very excited women and twenty kids disembarked the Fortune. We had docked up to one of the naval ships that patrolled Delta space. They were the guys that my younger brother Rick, wanted to join, the Delta Space Police Force or DSPF. We women ranged in age from eighteen to thirty-four years. We were all different shapes, heights, races and religions. The two things we had in common were that we were female and single. About fifteen of the women had kids...
Nash decided it was time to make his move. They were a day short of docking with the Armstrong SS, that orbited the moon when Nash informed the Captain that the ship would be put in the dry-docks. This was so the scientists and engineers could go over the boat to make sure it was still in working order. Nick understood this actually meant it was so they could work out what the hell Lee had done to the ship. Nash then informed him that he and the crew would all be detained. They would then...
It was a hectic three weeks for the crew of the Fortune. Tahoora and Esky were back on board for the last week as was Nick and Sung. They were busily getting the cargo on board and Esky was getting the rundown on what was involved in running this ship. In between, they were interviewing the new crewmembers. Unbeknown to the potential employee’s Lee, Sean, Tony or Kyle sat in on all their interviews. They had even vetted the applications before they even got that far. They had thousands of...
Sean had gotten inventive. First, he made a heap of moulds from clay in all sorts of Christmassy shapes. He had set up a small furnace and melted Oznglass in it, which he then coloured and poured into the shapes. He repeated this several times, so he had the shapes in about eight different colours. He then drilled into each shape and inserted small crystal shards. He picked the best crystals for this. He commandeered the cleaning staff at the retreat to help him. He had four willing Pix...
Misty Andersen and Tamara Brewer had shared homeroom together every semester since they had arrived at Monroe Middle School as sixth graders, two-and-a-half years past. Despite this fact, they barely knew each other, and throughout their tenure together, they had had little in common beyond the fact that both of their last names started with letters at the beginning of the alphabet - the sole basis of their common homeroom assignment. Through all of sixth, all of seventh, and now most of eighth...
Lee, Sean and Miss Piggy were up on the observation deck. They were looking at the array of rocks that were passing overhead. The ship had slowed down considerably. The asteroids looked like clouds passing overhead with a slow breeze pushing them even though it was the ship that was moving the slightly faster of the two. Lee pointed at one. “That’s a bit weird,” she said. “If I didn’t know better, I would have said that one had been cut by a high-powered photon laser torch.” “Which one?”...
Hello, people, this is my first post over here. I have been an avid reader on this site. So I thought of sharing my stories with a dash of my fantasy with you all. I have taken the title of the story from a movie named by the same. And maybe my further stories too would be titled like this only, inspired by a movie title. So with no further delay lemme start off with my indulgence of experience. P.S Have patience with story plot because I will be very descriptive. As I don’t like...
Prologue 11 years earlier... Stanislav calmly placed the documents into his shoulder bag, closed his laptop and put it in the bag next to the file folders. His exit, escape really, would be casual and unremarkable. He would simply walk out the door and disappear. The feat was anything but simple in reality, but he was certain it would leave his partners sufficiently perplexed. As the youngest member of the Delta Sodality, just past his thirty-first birthday, he was amazed at...
Chapter 4 - Loose Ends "What is the status" said the mildly eastern European voice on the other end of the encrypted satellite phone. The NSA was too good at intercepting all communications, so Kristina needed to be extra careful. "We were able to get the two subjects out of the lab. The...doctor," she paused not wanting to use names or pronouns just in case, "was becoming uncooperative. The medical team sedated, and we were able to extricate from building later that...
Chapter 5 - New Beginning After a full day in the lab with Dr. Juno the following Monday, Kristina sat down at her desk and pulled out the sat phone from its spot in the drawer. "Do you have what you need from Dr. Juno?" the voice asked. "Yes, I was able to reproduce the solution exactly today in the lab." "Very good." The connection went dead, and Kristina returned the phone to her desk drawer, aware that she had just sentenced the na?ve doctor to death. It was time to go h...
The darkness was cooler, and concealing. The bugs were worse, but then they were pretty bad most of the time. We could take our time in the darkness and move almost silently. The others, who had a lot to do and only a few hours before dawn to do it, lacked the luxury of time and planning. By dusk we’d be ready to move out. Then began the waiting. Preparedness was something we took for granted, in ourselves and each other. This man might spend a couple of minutes putting unnecessary touches to...
The Crews aboard the Firefly and the Dragonfly didn’t have a merry Christmas. Due to the hurriedness of their departure, both crews were seriously understaffed for an eleven-week round trip voyage. Their two-day trip to test-fly the ships had suddenly turned into a nightmare. The two ships were military ships designed to transport small elite troops. They had cabin space for seventy-two personal, twelve being crew. Each ship had three eighteen-seater transporters that had four missile...
Towards the middle of the week, they jumped to Baal. Baal was about the same size of Tychy and was a hot volcanic planet with a toxic atmosphere very similar in composition to Venus. The axial tilt was not as significant as Venuses being approximately one hundred and thirty-two degrees. This meant that it spun in the same direction as the other planets, unlike our Venus. It looked like a dirty red-brown and yellow ball from space, due to the high iron content and the volcanic ash in its...
Allan was thinking about how he ended up in this situation. It had taken the ship eighteen days to get up to speed for the first warp-jump. Allan had spent a lot of that time fucking Glenda. They had been on board five days before he took her the first time. She had been walking down the hall towards him. He had opened his cabin door and stepped in. As Glenda went to go past, he grabbed her arm and dragged her into the room. He palmed the door closed and pushed her against it. He locked...
Carther was looking at the work done by his people. The transporter depot now looked like a place for visitors to come to. They had even set up a hotel, shops and warehouses. The infrastructure owned by the city and they leased it out. There were still buildings being erected, but he, Aeron and the Queen who happily backed his projects, were happy with the progress. Since he now kept the Army busy with community jobs, he didn’t have any more deserters or resignations. Apparently, his people...
“Ladies and gentlemen, may I present The Jade Warrior Queen, Lee Watson. Long live the Queen,” said DT. They all bowed their heads and then raised their arms, “Long live the Queen, long live the Queen.” Lee gave them her best haughty look and said, “Right you lot, you’ve had your fun, now disappear.” She released her wand and waved it over the crowd as they went to laugh. They blinked and found themselves back in the glade on Rahia Island. They laughed even harder. Lee wasn’t big on fussy...
Twins Part 2 - Eighth Grade (Alex's gynecomastia progresses, he begins singing in a chorus and lets Allison style his hair.) Eighth grade was fun, but next year we'd be going to the high school. Like, most of us were looking forward to it but were apprehensive about it at the same time. Like, we'd been in middle school for three years and knew the teachers and they knew us. But next year we'd be off to a different school, and teachers we didn't know, and a lot of the kids would be...
~~ Delta - Nov/02 - (Earth - May/2095) ~~ I spent the rest of the Thursday getting through a pile of work. I sorted out the times to interview the people on Alec’s list over the three days I’d be in Clarksville. Many of them had indicated they would be at the party and asked if it would be easier to meet me there and I had agreed. I learnt the heads of the four Earth colonies would also be there and asked them if they would like to meet up with me as well. After a bit of round-robin, we...
Captain Nick Clark was walking around his ship. The damn thing pretty much ran without him, since Lee had played with the systems. The first week went by so fast. He had been able to get all his logs up-to-date and even found some quality time for Sung. The fact she had agreed to marry him and move to Clarksville hadn’t hurt his excellent mood either. She had loved the ring Berny had made for him. The ship’s crew were setting up for the first jump before he knew it. Even with the reduced...
Lee had a shift to get through. Damn, she had once laughed at Kyle’s ability to ‘fuck like a rabbit all night long’. However, after the last couple of nights with her hunky Lieutenant, she was beginning to believe Kyle wasn’t the only exception to the rule, after all. From her experiences, having a guy get it up more than twice in one night was rare. She had never had one perform four times in fewer hours, and she really couldn’t remember how many orgasms she had. In the past, she had been...
Lee rubbed her stomach. She now looked more as if she was five months pregnant and she agreed with Von that she would be lucky to make it to the twelve weeks. Sean had managed to do the deed, and Donny was pregnant. She couldn’t shift to male or any of her other forms other than faerie while pregnant. Lee hadn’t tried. She was happy to wait until she had Jackson before she experimented. Sparky and her village had been amazed when Lee transformed into a faerie for them. “Damn mum, I always...

My job was actually pretty easy. You see, I just needed the right set-up. As it happened, it was waiting for me to pounce. At the end of the semester, a small group of students stay behind. Those without other boarding, those who need to stay due to bad grades or just those without nowhere to go. With security at a minimum then, it's the best time to strike. Working as a gardener at the campus, I got to see all of the students and learn who would be around. All I had to do was wait for the time...
BDSMDelta Development by Paula Hello! My name is Paula Stephanie Mangione; I was hoping someone would stop by today, I want to share my unique life story with you. We can walk back to my loft in Midtown. It is a hot steamy afternoon here in Manhattan. You would think in the year of 2043 they would have figured out how to cover this city with a dome.

Just let me grab my purse and we can walk back to my loft in Midtown and share a nice meal while you learn of my story. It is a hot here in Manhattan today isn't it?

?Come on, Peter, I want to go,? complained Eduardo in his high, fey voice. ?We need to get to the party so that we can leave the party and come back. I?m so sick of partying.??Yeah, yeah. I?m working on it,? I said. I knew that Eduardo?s real voice wasn?t the lilting, lispy intonation he used around me but I never bothered to call him out on it. I guess it?s what girls like. Some girls, anyway.?You?ve been messing with your hair for like 15 minutes, you little slut. I want to go.?I hated it...
Chapter 2 - Counseling - Two Months Later - "So, you'll be moving to New York, how exciting," she said, taking a note on her legal pad. "Yeah, I managed to get all my credits done in the fall semester, so I graduate in December, then head to Manhattan right after New Years to start." "And your father is coming to the ceremony," she continued. "He is, as far as I know." Saoirse pulled the hem of her dress down again and crossed her legs back the other way. She had become...
Adison looked over at the hunk, Justin Ubobo. The other girls were making eyes at him, not that she could blame them. He had taken to wearing the jumpsuits from the replicator, and if any guy could pull off looking good in one, he sure did. So far, she hadn’t seen him pick any of the other girls out for special attention. He was always polite but treated them equally. She thought of his younger brother Brad. He was damn near as hunky as his older brother. Brad wore the jumpsuits too. He...
~~ Delta - Aug/02 - (Earth - Feb/2095) ~~ Jahn didn’t enjoy the trip through the mountains. While his leg got better, it had been many years since he had physically exerted himself on suck a walk. The Giants forced a faster pace than he had maintained in the previous weeks of walking. His leg had meant that he stopped for as long as he walked. What muscle tone he had redeveloped was lost in his fever. At least now, after eight days of walking, he was actually keeping up with them, sort of....
It had been a busy week getting prepared for the Fortune’s second return. Esky had gotten the trip down to two weeks in flight, and they had decided on only one week in a dock on each leg. So, they had a six-week turnaround. Their new Employment agency on Earth had already picked and notified the next group. Now that Lee and Co could order the supplies they wanted to be delivered to the Moon, the ship didn’t have to wait at the space station for the orders to be filled. Justin and Lee had...
Lee had found herself in a sticky situation. When Justin went to vault over the box he was standing in front of, he placed both hands on the lid and then halted. They all heard the ‘click, click’. He looked down to find the lid lifting up under his hands. “No,” screamed Jahn again. “They are my boxes, you can’t have them,” he yelled in frustration and sent an immobilising spell at Justin. Justin blinked out of the way and reappearing in front of Kim, ready to protect her. She stepped up...
The wizards had a busy week building three new compounds. Gary, Gavin and Jim were busy churning out domes. They had already completed the domes in the UN Compound, and the crews had fitted them out ready for Robert, Pete, Antonio, Kostya and their families and support people to move into. The UN delegates were busy moving in to get ready for the first two ships from the Australasian and the North American blocks. The personnel from the Delta Space Police Force were also shifted to free up...
The next day the wizards had to go through the same crap again when the Americans arrived. Lee took an instant dislike to the man who was leading this party. To start with, he wasn’t a scientist; he was a General from the Army. He was a big man who had gone to fat and who was very full of himself. Lee noted the large paunch and thinning hair, red nose and pale complexion that suggested an office worker who liked to eat and drink to excess. She also noted that he didn’t seem well-liked by...
Sean and Lee headed for the diner. They found their regular chairs were vacant and waiting for them. So, they both grabbed some of the chicken dish from the bain-maries and joined the table. “Ah, the love birds have come up for air,” Kyle said. Lee set her plate down and then turned and thumped Kyle in the arm as he had sat next to her. Kyle rubbed his arm, “Hey, what was that for?” “You knew, didn’t you? You knew Gerald was related to Carl!” she specified. Kyle suddenly realised what...
Rodger was worried about them going to either planet. He had been told not to let Lee step foot on the planet. His uncle wouldn’t be happy if she did. The problem was that he didn’t know which planet, as he hadn’t been told that there was two. He was also having trouble finding Lee alone. Nor had he come up with a good way to get rid of her. Rodger wasn’t game to go for a frontal attack as he didn’t think it would go well for him, not after the last attempt. There was no way he wanted to...
Lee had a fascination with the crocs. She had a large female who had acquired a new mate living on her island. The dragons used to hunt them, and Lee believed the larger mate she had might have had fallen victim to them. The new male was smaller, so he was also younger. Lee suspected he had followed the female here and she had decided to keep him. He seemed perfectly happy to have her too. She wasn’t sure, if they were natives or if they had been brought here. She considered them one of...
Essco was not pleased. As Essco had suspected, the committee had decided on Tychy as the next destination. He did not intend to be stuck on Tychy for the next nine to twelve months. He needed to establish contact with the people on Futura. To set up mining of the energy crystals, so they could ship them home. He planned to be a wealthy man. He intended to live out the rest of his life with a revolving harem of big boobed young girls to look after his every need. He hated it when his plans...
The three dads, the von Holton’s, Henry, Captain Clark and Vincent, were sitting in Lee’s old room when they took the cover off. “Hi, Kids, were back, did you have fun while we were jabbering?” Robert asked. “Yep Lee and I were discussing how to make absent dads miserable. But then Sean went and spoiled it by reminding me, I was going to be a dad real soon too,” Kyle said as he grinned at the cringes made by Pete and Antonio. “I assume that discussion is best left until another day,” Lee...
Things were a bit different on this trip. The crews had elected a floating work schedule. As long as the work was done, they did it as required. In engineering, they all helped each other. Lee and Bing taught everyone how to perform necessary engine checks. Lee, Bing and Terry while aboard would still do the main checks and repairs, but the others could help by taking a short night shift every few nights to do the simple walk around checks. Hydroponics elected for a similar loose roster as...
The transporter’s next stop was Tuath in Davinia. The soldiers of the military transporter caused a bit of an incident when they went to Tuath a couple of days later. They had been given a 24-hour pass and were looking around town when they had come upon the military barracks. They stopped to watch the local soldiers train. As far as they were concerned, they were bumbling idiots. They had been laughing as the soldiers had been going over an obstacle course, which they all considered...
The group had decided to head to Clarksville today. They didn’t bother packing much, as Sean explained to the visitors, they could get everything they needed from the replicator. Anne and Karri asked if they could scan in their favourite clothes. Lee told them to collect what they wished but did warn them if they go into the replicator and then other people could access them as well. Neither woman had any problem with this outcome. Karri joked she hoped the women weren’t after the latest...
“Now, tell me what the hell is going on,” Marco said. “What is Tir a Tir? We’re supposed to be looking for Tir Yadar!” He’d been crankier than usual ever since getting stabbed. “We are,” Ellerie replied. She’d refused to speak openly while they were still out on the streets, so Josip had found an inn that had enough rooms for everyone, plus a private dining room for the group to get together. “We have a good idea of the route to Tir Yadar, but we didn’t know where to begin. Now we do. Tir a...

THE EIGHTH GRADE SCIENCE TEACHERThis story is true and reflects every detail that I can recall. The next encounter with Beverly was equally unbelievable. More to follow. I was taking a huge risk of getting caught speeding and another with the wintry conditions of the road, but I had promised my wife that I would make it home in time for the Parent Teacher conference for my stepson. As we mingled with the hundreds of parents, clutching the schedule, searching the halls for the room number, and...
Corec followed as Treya led the group up the wide stone steps that stood before the ducal palace. It was just him and the four women. They’d left Bobo and Boktar behind, but had decided that everyone who was affected by the runes should be present. The main entrance to the duke’s palace was to the left of the ceremonial entrance, but was actually the larger of the two. There were three sets of double doors open to accommodate all the people going in and out. The guards who were standing...
“Let’s just go up that next rise before we head back,” Corec said to Josip. “It’ll give us a better view.” “Do you really think anything’s going to change?” the guide asked. The scouting party had been in the barrens for two hours and had seen little other than scraggly bushes, weeds, and flat, dry land. “No, but we’re close enough that we might as well take a look.” They nudged their horses forward, Leena and Nedley following behind them. The Sanvari woman had accompanied the scouting...
Ellerie rubbed her temples, trying to hold back a headache. It was growing late, much later than she’d anticipated staying within the mountain, and they’d spent hours searching through rooms empty of anything other than rusted or rotting furniture and miscellaneous odds and ends. Even an empty room was an important find to add to their knowledge of Tir Yadar, but somehow, after the giant sphere and the blue lights illuminating the animal statues, Ellerie had been expecting something...
Everyone gathered around the wooden table in the private dining room they’d used the day before. Corec waited while Ellerie described the proposal. He and Treya occasionally interjected comments when they thought of something important. Boktar had paced around the room while Ellerie was speaking. When she was done, he asked Corec, “What’s this Varsin fellow like? Can we trust him?” “I guess you could say I’ve been working for him for years, but only in the sense that he’s in charge of...
Time: Judgment 8, 8244, 11:40 AM "Well, okay so far. Try to stay calm Ilias," I thought to myself, and then my face almost broke into a grin. After all the months of hearing absolutely no one make that mistake, I made it myself. "Relax, Abdul Hadi," I thought, as I looked around the Babylonian hall and tried to appear cheerful. "Pray if you want." The hall was magnificent. The monks take a vow of poverty, but that does not apply to their common areas. I was surrounded both by monks...

Love StoriesMother Ethel always enjoyed the short walk to the train station. It was beautiful Autumnal morning and Mother Ethel took the opportunity to walk to the train station as she knew that she had a very busy day ahead. Those that saw Mother Ethel along the way bowed reverently,they knew that Mother Ethel was a Nun of the Monastery of Repentance and when a Nun or a Monk walked past it was polite to bow, for many knew what the Nun's and Monk's of the Monastery were capable of. As Mother Ethel strolled...
Dot, Dorothea, and Dick Chapter One Dear sister: I found this letter among some others, scrolled up and tied with purple ribbon, in a chest belonging to our great grandfather. The name Charles has belonged to several in our family line, but I believe I know the one who received and saved this letter, and kept it preserved for so many years.
