Desperate she may be - though she'd given nary a hint to those she sought to recruit that her very livelihood depended on finding a crewman - but Captain Stone knew far better than to show any sign of weakness among the longshoremen and sailors she moved among. In truth she found the boy's...

In truth it wasn't a great time in history for one hopeful of disguising their fairer sex; not given the remarkable prevalence of magnificent moustaches, muttonchops or neatly trimmed beards on any man of substance. The only out was to take the guise of a lad young enough to be denied his prized...

Eva Verlaine "Thank you," she murmured, some of her frosty manner thawing as the Trand- um, Argonian did something that felt similar to a Force healing technique while at the same time being from a tradition she'd never heard of. She could vaguely sense the energy manipulation, though not...

"...no." Morwen rubbed at her eyes, then gave the older man a direct glare. "I'm not interested in selling her. As I told you. Now, do you know a good man who will serve me on Wyvern or do you not?"  "Not," chortled the salty old captain of Highflyer. "None of my lads would follow a young...

Eva Verlaine One moment the Jedi General was watching the Cazador man threaten them, drawing hard on the strangely distant Force to bolster the shields that protected the foursome. The man toggled his trigger - then ran away laughing; some demented trickster rather than an immediate enemy...

Alderaan @folclor Somehow Avutka had been so lost in thought - or so caught up in trying to suppress her sensitivity to the pain and suffering that seemed to pervade the city - that she hadn't even noticed the other girl so close... yet so far away. Spinning at the beloved voice, her eyes...

A day ago, Lady Verlaine would simply have caught the explosive charges mid-air and flipped them back towards their source before they came close enough to endanger her or the guardswoman her friend had added to her personal circle. That was Sasura, wasn't it? The armour said yes, the responses...

The courtyard rang with a deafening sound just beyond the point of hearing. A speck of light against the sunny sky, a mote that became a splotch and then a great circle filled with spiralling whites, blues and shadows that finally opened to its full extent eight feet off the ground. A blaze of...

    London, the United Kingdom 8th November 1862 Morwenna Stone slammed out of the lawyer's office, her back straight and her grey eyes blazing. How dare he. How dare he? She'd flown aboard Wyvern since she was five, and if at first she'd been more trouble than help to her father...

Perhaps alone among the newcomers, Anielka showed little interest in the bald robed man by the fire. She was aware of him certainly. But intrigued? Not especially. She'd seen a lot of strange things even before leaving Cranholme and her old life behind.  He was just one more, and not even half...

Alderaan @folclor Having found no troop transports headed for the spaceport, nor any speeder bikes convenient for her to borrow, Avutka had made the somewhat unusual decision to catch the hovertram. Every day the tram took hundreds to and from the city spaceport, and while the recent...

Alderaan @folclor Avutka deflated. She supposed it was wrong of her to wish it, but she'd secretly hoped there might have been some fighting, a confrontation, some sign that what she'd felt (what she still felt) was not what she felt it to be. But to be Jedi was to be above base animal...

*enjoys hot cocoa and hugs, blushing* At the end of the day, it's home. Where else would I want to be? Besides, y'all have some amazing creative talent with the written word, and I'd like to share in that again.  ^_^

Thanks everyone, it's good to be back and I really appreciate the warm welcomes. Special thanks to @folclor and @Grim Wraithe Stjerna for helping me come back as soon as I did.

Alderaan @folclor Avutka had been quiet for some time indeed, allowing herself to be drawn aside by her Master with scarcely a word, but it hadn't been  time wasted. She looked up from where she knelt on the floor, and her dark eyes showed an odd conflixt of serenity and confusion. "My...

*drags self in* Yes, sorry about my summary self-exile.  I'm not sure if I'll be posting today or tomorrow, but I should be back for the duration. It's good to be here.

Korriban The fire swept through the heavy-built stone chamber and a dozen people turned and fled, screaming. As the flames billowed up around the central figure, the men and women disappeared through the doorway behind; then disappeared in truth, shadows of past figures now dead. The fire...

Apologies for my sudden disappearance and recent hiatus.  A small personal crisis took me off the site without much notice, and when I left, I didn't expect I'd be returning. Things are now improving and I feel I can to return to the site in a smaller way. Unfortunately that doesn't include...
