Halcyon Days

Halcyon Days is an upcoming collection of stories in the form of a novella by J.G. Taschereau. Halcyon Days serves to bridge the gap between The Kyoto Ordeal  and Fallout and consists of ten light-hearted short stories that detail the events of Adam Evans and Dee Gatti's lives at Magid Palace, the first five taking place in spring while the latter five take place in summer. The series falls outside of the Tales of the Other Universe trilogy, but is considered canon to the series nonetheless.

Main Characters

 * Adam Evans — King of Magid and protagonist. He returns to the throne following the Kyoto Ordeal and finds energy and eventfulness injected into his life by Dee and the others.
 * Dee Gatti — Aide to the Creator and guest of Adam's at Magid Palace. She takes her task of keeping Adam happy seriously, finding ways to improve his often mopey demeanor.
 * Miko Lith — A soft spoken young palace attendant who finds herself getting involved with the plans made by Dee.
 * Spencer Pierce — A teenaged thief who is caught in the palace and forced to become the palace bell ringer.
 * Nelly Hawthorne — A former bounty hunter out to find Mathias Silvos and get revenge for leaving her behind after the Liberation of Magid.
 * Syd — A small, bear-like animal that Dee discovers outside of the palace. She keeps it as a pet, though it spends most of the day asleep.

​Minor Characters
