Honor. Duty. Ritual. One of these may kill her #Excerpt The Last Vhalgenn by Kayelle Allen #FantasyBooks #Readers

Kayelle Allen 09/23/2024 Gates of Life

In this scene, Raik, the Vhalgenn, has taken the wetnurse and the newborn prince into the mountains. The one thing they must avoid is for the babe to be seen by his father, Orix, the king. Not until the child has been passed beneath the Gates of Life. This story is all from Raik's point of view.

The sun was straight overhead and despite the cool air of the foothills, my head felt baked. Time and again, I had to remove my hat and wipe my brow. When we reached an overlook, I fanned myself with the brim. Rising in the stirrups to look down, I followed the river's path.

A groan escaped before I could stop it.

"What's wrong?" Estria craned her neck to see.

"They made better time than I expected."

She squinted toward the river, a hand shielding her eyes. "From back 'ere, I can't see a bloody thing."

The small figures on horses, far below, followed the river. The horseman in front carried an emerald banner with streamers. The cream-colored horse in the center of the procession sported gold-trimmed black leather and bright emerald ribbons woven into its pale mane. He was never one for hiding who and what he was.

"Raik!" Estria backhanded my arm to gain attention. "If you don't tell me 'oo it is down there, I'll..."

"Orix. He's come to stop us."

Meet the agents of TRAIL from Beneath the Gates #SciFi #DarkFantasy

Kayelle Allen 09/13/2024 Colonies of Man

I plan to write about TRAIL, a company that exists in the far future, and is contemporary with my Tarthian Empire series.
The two do not overlap, and take place on different sides of the galaxy.

The meaning of the acronym TRAIL is Trace, Rescue, and Identification League. However, rival companies and independent agents have their own versions. Most common is Thieves, Ruffians, Assholes, Irritants, and Losers, followed by Their Roughneck Arbitration Is Laughable. The official company response is to grin and bear it, laughing while you cash your fat paycheck. The unofficial response is a quick jab to the mouth. Scars on knuckles are a thing of pride among agents.

The structure of TRAIL is formed loosely around the principle that independence is a good thing, provided it's not taken too far -- or too seriously. Agents report to a Field Director, who reports to the Board, the members of which are ultimately responsible to the President. No more than two steps are ever required for a decision, no matter how weighty. Agents have full authority to act with extreme prejudice if necessary to carry out their missions. That said, any time a death is involved, an outside agency steps in to confirm both the kill and the neccessity for it, occasionally resulting in more scarred knuckles.

The outside agency policing TRAIL's missions which result in a "negative life impact" (i.e., death) is STOP, Synthetic Technicians Optimized for Peacekeeping. TRAIL agents refer to the emotion-denied android group as Suspending, Terminating, and Omitting Pleasure.

TRACE is an officially disavowed department of trained assassins and snipers inside TRAIL, whose motto is "Without guilt." TRACE stands for Target Removal Assistance Classified: Extreme and these agents are the favorites of many world governments.

Currently, TRAIL agents are found in Trailing Kaiwulf, and will be in the upcoming story Return of the Vhalgenn.

This is obviously science. But also the Fae 🧝🏼‍♂️ #DarkFantasy #SciFi

Kayelle Allen 08/21/2024 Colonies of Man 4 Comments

An excerpt from the Bonus story at the end of Trailing Kaiwulf

Dr. Post

According to both legend and archival posts, the next world where we'll find Gates of Life is on the planet Stachien. The archives say that when technicians were terraforming the world, they kept referring to working on the surface as being on "station." The name stuck and got a respelling.

Currently, all we know about the world is that it has a feudal society spread out over vast areas. Major cities have fewer than ten thousand residents each. Their legends of dragons have actual fossils to back them up. But one fascinating detail sticks out at me.

A ritual requires newborns to be passed beneath "Gates of Life" as soon as possible after birth. Before being seen by their fathers—in order to appease the Fae.

The word conjures so many images! Add to that fossilized dragons, and how could a scientist like myself resist the draw? The intrigue is far too strong.

Are those Gates still active? What types of changes might we see over a few generations? And what would happen if their fathers saw them? Did this mean new mothers were traveling alone after childbirth, or going to the Gates to give birth?

I have so many questions!

The king must not stop the child’s ritual #Excerpt by Kayelle Allen #SciFi #Fantasy

Kayelle Allen 08/14/2024 Colonies of Man 6 Comments

In The Last Vhalgenn, it's imperative that Raik carries the newborn prince beneath the Gates of Life. But it must happen prior to being seen by his father, or, according to the superstitious queen, it will "offend the faery." She fears that the king seeing the baby might cause the death of the child. On her deathbed, the queen begs Raik to complete the ritual with the child.

The sun was straight overhead and despite the cool air of the foothills, my head felt baked. Time and again, I had to remove my hat and wipe my brow. When we reached an overlook, I fanned myself with the brim. Rising in the stirrups to look down, I followed the river's path.

Sneak Peek: Beneath the Gates by Kayelle Allen – Exclusive #Excerpt #SciFi #Fantasy

Kayelle Allen 08/07/2024 Colonies of Man 2 Comments

This scene from a bonus story at the end of The Last Vhalgenn, shows a dilemma facing King Orix.

My father lamented ever turning me into a soldier, but I'd seen enough war, growing up. I preferred to read about battles, not engage in them. The Qarthian army engaged the army of the Kellindahrii at every opportunity. Our first chance for peace came with my wedding to the daughter of a Kellindahrii nobleman. I agreed wholeheartedly.

Mother took sick at our marriage feast, but thankfully, my new wife had knowledge of herbs and healing potions. I was delighted that Dahr took such interest in tending to her. Despite fine care, Mother never recovered. Not long after, my father suffered with his heart. If it hadn't been for my wife, Father might have died sooner. How lucky I thought myself, having a bride with such skill. Father's death left me on the throne. I hoped his training would serve me in good stead.

North, outside our borders, a fledgling army threatened our positions and strongholds. Qarthian and Kellindahrii soldiers fought together, keeping our lands free of foreign rule. But it was a dear fight. The enemy grew stronger with every skirmish, increased in size after every battle.

During the months following our wedding, my wife made it clear she had no tolerance for our custom of the Vhalgenn. When Dahr became pregnant, I hoped she'd change her mind, but she refused. Raik could not cross Dahr's path without angering her. No matter how much Raik conceded, nothing was good enough. Dahr miscarried, and she blamed it on our cursed customs and insisted I send Raik away.

Banish Raik? The joy of my heart? Raik was the true love of my life and my finest advocate and advisor. I might have to marry to gain peace, but how could I send away my own source of peace?

Such a ridiculous truth #Excerpt from The Last Vhalgenn #DarkFantasy #MFRWhooks

Kayelle Allen 06/26/2024 Colonies of Man 6 Comments

In this scene, Raik and King Orix are in her chamber. She's confessed that she's embarrassed by her own hands, which are so unlike the beautiful queen's.

Such a ridiculous truth

"I love you, Vhalgenn." When I tried to turn away, Orix set the tip of a finger beneath my chin and lifted my face. "And your hands. Why do they bother you so much?"

"Because they'll never be pretty." I pressed my lips shut, hating my own mouth for telling him such a ridiculous truth.

He set his fingers beneath my chin, and turned my face up to his. "You're more than pretty. You're magnificent. She's never once sat near the fire with me and talked."

It had been our nightly ritual. "Never?"

"Never." He brushed my hair back from my face. "I've learned to get along with her, Vhalgenn, but I never had to learn anything with you. We grew up with one another. You were my partner in everything I did. My lover, my shield-sister, my sparring partner, my best friend. My everything."

His mouth came down on mine. A feverish chill coursed through me at his touch. I'd wanted his mouth from the moment I saw him on that throne. Orix could not help but be languid and sultry and hot. Desire emanated from him like heat from an open oven. It scorched my face and I drew in a shallow breath, afraid of being burnt.

Resisting him was something I had never done, except in play. He thought I meant it that way now and made as if to pressure me, until he saw my eyes were brimming.

"Please, Orix. Don't." I pushed myself away from him. "I can't."

He frowned, confused. For him, life was simple. A need? Fulfill it. Thirsty? Drink. Hungry? Eat. Lusty? Love.

"Half the palace must know I'm here. Do you think Dahr will let this go unnoticed? She'll have someone in here to check on me before the night's through and I won't be thrown out again, Orix. I couldn't bear it."

"Vhalgenn, I promise. She'll never know."

"No!" I backed away from him. "She's no fool. She's your queen and she's risking her life to have your child. The least you can do is be faithful."

The look of horror on his face tore out a piece of my heart. Then I realized he was looking past me.

His pregnant queen stood in the darkness, right outside the door.
