Deert seeks perfection, to be king of High Heaven. So he climbs the mountain, Asgod, to set Ska and Aerth at war with one the other. So that he may rule in the chaos.

A woman sweeps the town faithfully—a boring, ordinary task that saves the town from ruin for countless years. This is the second of Ranmeth's Tales. It honors heroes who accomplish great feats through seemingly ordinary means.

The first of Ranmeth's Tales––The Tale of the Exploding King. No one can be Most without breaking.

Aermeth prepares a meal for King Mor at her home. Jonno prepares to attack King Mor at Ranmeth's house. How will this five-part festival story conclude?

Mor arrives in Aer. He overtakes the town with his power. When Mor is injured in battle, Aermeth must decide what power she will respond with. Will she use redness or the forgiveness her father taught her?

Rumors of Mor's power come to Aer. Aermeth asks Ranmeth what power is. He tells her a story of two men--Tabay and Brigeete--who use two different kinds of power--truth-making and truth-saying.

Ranmeth gives Aermeth a gift. When her friend destroys it in a fit of jealousy, Aermeth must decide if she will forgive her friend or seek justice.

Aermeth must learn to control the voice she has been given. Meanwhile, Mor advances his wealth and power through war. A myth that considers the nature of power.

Peevish wants adventure so badly that he saves things that don't need saving. Will his adventures destroy the town?

At the beginning of all things, except one thing, there was no one there to see, hear, or know how the universe exploded into being. But we remember our first moments. This is the Hamperdian origin myth (cosmogonic myth).
