Teaser Tuesday: Running Through Visindor

Posted on December 1, 2015 by Charles Yallowitz

While I don’t know when The Mercenary Prince will debut, I can pull a few small excerpts.  This is part of the intro and shouldn’t reveal more than Delvin’s mindset.  He has a ‘Nyx’ moment.

The Wyvern gets mistaken for a dragon a lot, but it’s not really the same.  No breath weapon and they come in two species.  Both have very powerful rear legs and leathery wings.  One has a barbed tail and no … Continue reading →
