Heroes are made, not born. The same is true of villains. Stories of Myrcia's most twisted power couple and how they got that way. Prequel stories to For Her Own Good.

Choices have consequences, whether it's studying for an exam, going out for that fancy job, or marrying in haste. Sometimes, the consequences are immediate, but they can also take an entire career to unfold or even centuries. See how just a few of the choices made by bankers, sorcerers, and monks can shape the future in these standalone fantasy short stories.

Love is not necessarily any easier in a world with magic. From teenagers at school, just beginning to understand who they are and what they desire, to a twice devastated princess, these stories examine the love lives of the next generation of Myrcian nobility and the devastation love can sometimes leave in its wake. They also just might begin to hint at how those loves could one day change everything in kingdoms and empires.

People and countries all have their turning points...even when no one realizes that is what's happening. See how some of the most powerful men and women in Myrcia and beyond react when they either know, or ought to have known, that one of these moments is upon them.
