When a Goddess Wakes

This story is set in an alternate reality, much like our own, and has both magic and space travel. From old gaming sessions I played in my younger days, I took player characters and tried to answer the question: what are they doing now? That soon became larger than I could handle, so I cut it down to one main character and told her story.

Katlin Catlin Adderlink is the main character. She's the Royal Duchess of Spine and stepdaughter to King Adderlink of Brox Rook. That means she has all the rights and privileges of a princess, except she can't become queen, and that's okay. Her job as Knight Errant to the House of Adderlink is ideal: autonomy, variety of assignments, and fantastic pay with perks.

When she received a project involving her old college friend, Prince Aramis Rouge of Blair, she treated it like any other assignment until the prince went missing. Finding him became a personal obligation until a media blitz hit Iron Rock. It accused the house of Adderlink of Aramis's abduction. That made it an official assignment for KC.

Was Aramis really missing? Was he a victim or villain? Who was responsible for the media assault? Was it a scheme to draw Brox Rook and Blair into a war? And who the hell was Janice? Read When a Goddess Wakes and find out.
