306 - Stop in the Name of the Law!
How in Hayel was the office of the Serenity afforded skates? I'd been risking enough by having something so expensive on my feet… being mugged for my skates – if any smash and grab thief could catch me… The drum bounced on my back as I tore down Race, the wailing whistles behind me. Children on the sides of the street squealed and waved at me while their parents hustled them back out of my

305 - No Wild Boys
The Pages and spawn press articles were mostly more moderate than their headlines. Apparently Chevenga went to the committee who were attempting to reinstate him… but he did not seek this but rather would allow them to pursue their stated purpose.
"Chevenga Meets with Group Re Reinstatement" with the sub-head being "Ex-Imperator throws his support behind sister's deposing!"
What the story

304 - Figgish Birthday to You
Dorn was shutting down his kitchen and Iliakaj, Enchian barbarian that he is, leaned over and actually kissed his wife in public. They'd come in for a late dinner without the kids. These foreigners. I swear to the Gods, what is Arko coming to, with people actually showing affection for a woman where everyone can see!
He picked up his glass and came strolling through to my Fig with a few

303 - Pata Pata Pat Boom Swish Boom
Dear Shadow Mama and Shadow Papa,
I am still doing all right and I'm safe, that's all I can tell you right now. I hope the family is all alright. You can come back to Asinanai if you like because when I come home I'd like to come there instead of Arko. You don't need to stay in Arko to find me. I'm sorry I missed you on Haiu Menshir. I'm really sorry, but there was a Mahid there that I

302 - A Piece of Mine That Would Not Sell
The Stone Hammer Riots
Statues are something that people erect to those they wish to revere and a culture's attitudes, morals and government can be read in the countries presentation art. Statues have, not only a monetary cost, but a moral and ethical cost as well.
One must consider who pays for its initial construction, and why – both official and unofficially. Who pays to have it

301 - Arko Surely Rejoices
STATUE APPROVED!!
The Marble Palace is pleased to announce the funding approval for the statue of the former Imperator, then Fourth Shefenkas Shaeranoias, now Shefenkas Aisheresas, to be erected at the head of the Avenue of Statuary. The proposed plaza surrounding it will become part of Presentation Square, once the University Buildings "Philosophical Arts" and "Religious Studies" are removed,

300 - Adieu, oh Light of Stars
Gannara made me stay in bed and left Ili with me the first day with orders to sit on me if I tried to get up. He brought a Haian in to see me, telling inn staff I had contracted a chill, having been silly enough to get my feet wet.
The young Haian asked me what had happened and sniffed when I told him I'd fallen off a bridge into the canal. "And you are not going to say who helped you fall

Impending Hiatus
I have just realized I need to give my brain a break, expecially just before the Novel Marathon, so I will be taking a week off beginning July 9th. I'm hoping to recharge my writing batteries before Karen and I write a book over the weekend of the 16th of July.
I'll remind everyone a couple of days before!
