Journey Deeper into the Planes with Nexus Tales
Journey deeper into the planes with this collection of short
fiction featuring earlier adventures of the heroes of the Nexus of the Planes trilogy, along with an introduction to Dakarai
Creel, a major new character from the upcoming successor series to Nexus of the Planes.
Nera and Arron get more than they bargained for when they
journey to a rain-soaked plane and attempt to steal a magical dagger from a
mage. Their mission seems simple enough, but their luck runs out when they are
captured and sent to the gallows.
Waresh Hammerhelm leads an expedition to retake Torval’s
Hold, a fabled stronghold that fell under mysterious circumstances centuries
earlier, in a bid to discover a truth buried in the past and win the respect of
his father, the king.
Nera, Arron, and Wyat’s search for the cause of the
slaughter of a village leads them to an isolated monastery where they learn of
an ancient curse unleashed. Time is running out to prevent the evil from
spreading.
Dakarai Creel is a monster hunter, a fugitive of Nexus, and
a lone traveler who wanders the realms and pits his sword and wits against the
evil creatures the law has no means or interest in dealing with. He takes on a
contract to find some missing villagers who are disappearing one by one, but
how can he fight a malevolent killer who hides in plain sight and leaves no trace?
More of the past and motivations of the two retrieval
officers, Haskell and Vhijera, are revealed in two intertwining tales of high
adventure.
