Cadence Shadowsoul, onetime resident of the House on South Street. Her human death left her soul unable to pass through the veil. Her spirit desired to control a Portal to the netherworld and she almost succeeded. Mere mortals fell before her wickedness. The evil she fostered as an entity resulted in the last of the witch-hunter's losing a battle to her. The desire to become incarnate through her cambion proved to be her spiritual downfall - Cadence Shadowsoul was consumed in a cauldron of fire in the very house she once had ruled from. Yet, the curious mind of an ancient Greek Goddess, might allow the wandering witch's malevolent spirit to find the path home.

Dorothy Talbot had "dispatched" the Völva (Thorbjörg Lítilvölva), using a Fire Death Curse. The explosive eruption of fire had surprised, even her. The cave had filled with molten flames which incinerated anything in its path. The Völva was turned into a mass of glowing ash, all her burial-goods destroyed in an instant. Dorothy was overcome with the power of the moment. Although she was untouched by the fire she was physically and emotionally spent. The cavern began to collapse around her, and her fate rested with Almáttugur Verndari's nobility. As the ceiling fell, in burning chunks of rock and detritus - Dorothy lay on the cavern floor, her mind locking out the visions of Gehenna around her. A "knight" would save her; and her Sisters rushed to her side ... Recovery would follow, but with a new challenge - a coup atempt from a troublesome Goddess - followed by removal of the threat.

A book of information about my Book Series: "The House on South Street". Written for avid readers who are searching for more information on the books, the book covers, the sequence of the stories, and a "wee-bit" of insight into "what's going on here"?

Jokingly, people often quote: "...It's good to be the Queen..." Well, depending on the traditions taught to the Princess, before she rules as Queen, the personality traits vary. Even then, each Queen brings bits of her own personality to the table. Some Queens were known for beauty, others were skillful in politics. Dorothy Talbot, aka Fidelia Bloodworth, would be a queen like no other. Combining the ancient wisdom of the Craft and a modern tact of the new world order, she would declare herself to be the Empress Witch-Queen regnant for her empire - the Coven of the Sisters (Worldwide).

Lilith, Queen of the Demons, challenges Dorothy Talbot (aka Fidelia Bloodworth) the Empress Witch-Queen regnant for the empire of the Coven of the Sisters (Worldwide). If someone asks you to do a favor, how far will you go? Would you cause a war between Witches and Demons for dominance? Or would you realize common ground and forge an alliance?

Every war has its "stories". This is my story about a Cold War conflict, when at the time I served, had no clear end in sight. This story doesn't have any dynamic Hollywood gunfights, and it isn't an action thriller. It's a story of "... watching and waiting...", more akin to a firehouse routine than some grandiose military action "blockbuster" movie.

Some Witches have been known to have committed wicked deeds, (even) to cause harm and death. However, as members of a minority sector of society, most Witches simply lead their lives the same as everyone else. And many do a lot of good in their communities. Like the rest of society, there are good ones and bad ones. So, where does that lead us? Perhaps a Witch could be a hero. Perhaps a Priest could be a villain, (aka Child-Molester). I'm not going to judge based on a label...
