Wytchfae
– Runes was published in October 2012, and I’m so excited that
SCP gave me a contract for six more books in the Wytchfae series. I
look forward to sharing these stories with readers. The Wytchfae
world is composed of intersecting dimensions, only one of which is
the familiar human world that we know. Getting from one dimension to
another can be tricky, especially if you are traveling from the human
plane to a fae dimension. In Wytchfae – Runes the heroine Kelly has
to muster all the energy and allies she can, including her patron
goddess Epona, just to get to the in-between area. Only the
mysterious Guardian of the Between can grant permission to travel
further into the netherworld where the Viking Ingvar is being held
prisoner. Not only is the Guardian protecting his domain from
intruders, he’s also saving humans from a wide variety of unruly
demons.
Several
of the fae domains in the Wytchfae world are generally loosely
connected. For example, the netherworld areas, ruled by the Guardian
of the Between, the Queen of the Grims, and Goddess Helle of the
Underworld, link together by means of long cavernous corridors. Other
places use transportation reminiscent of a hover train. The heroine
of Guardian of the Deep - Wytchfae 2 rides on one of these when she
leaves the undersea home of her lover.
A
rare but favored means of travel for fae is the spotty hole. It is a
type of spatial portal that is convenient to use when long distances
are involved. The main drawback is that spotty holes rarely stay in
one place. They tend to appear and disappear at will. No one knows
how spotty holes came about, although some consider them natural
phenomena.
Time
travel is another aspect of the Wytchfae world. Those who dwell in
human places require a particular type of Wytchfae, a time singer, to
energetically “sing” them back and forth in time. Fae use time
trips as vacations. Just as we might book a trip to Ireland or Bali,
a fae might buy a ticket for Ireland 1500 or Bali 1970. When the
succubus heroine of Guardian of the Deep – Wytchfae 2 takes a trip
to 1950 Montana, she uses a popular type of fae transport, a
submarine that materializes near its destination.
You
would think that a very powerful type of being, such as a goddess,
would have an easier time when traveling among dimensions or time
periods. However, goddesses can have a tougher time of it than some,
as will be seen in Mind Your Goddess – Wytchfae 3. Thank you, SCP,
for your support in bringing the Wytchfae world to light.
I WANT To be a fae and travel through time like that. Of course, I don't sing worth a darn so no telling where I'd end up!
ReplyDeleteThe series sounds super!
Jillian, there's always the danger of ending up in the wrong time. Of course, what if the wrong time is the right time? Thanks for stopping by!
