New story: Inquisitor

 I have begun work on a new story, "Inquisitor". It follows a young man named Alexander, a member of an order dedicated to protecting the values of the Tarid Empire. He is also a Caller, born with the rare ability to subtly influence that unseen forces that govern the world. Stationed in a remote outpost with his mentor Marcus, Alexander's quiet life of dealing with petty crimes enforcing the Empire's laws is soon disturbed by rumors of disappearances, murders, and a surge in mystery cults defying the Empire's atheist philosophy. Alexander is drawn into events that threaten everything he has ever known or believed.

Cover below is something I whipped up:



It's set in the same world as my other stories around the same time as the events of A Sky Pirate's last Flight. It takes place in the northernmost province of the island ruled by the Tarid Empire, west of the kingdom of Wollema.

Current plan is to update every Monday and Thursday, though I may update a bit more frequently in the beginning just to establish a backlog of content. It's a story I've been kicking around for years.

It can be read in the usual places:
