Interview with Galen, set after Seeking Magic
Seeking Magic is the third book in the series. If you haven’t read any of the books yet, there are no spoilers, just a bit of scene setting and an introduction to his character!
Me: Thank you for talking to me today.
Galen: (raises eyebrows) I’m curious. I had not thought to speak to anyone else from Jax and Shannon’s time.
Me: Can you tell the readers a bit about yourself?
Galen: (smiles with amusement) That is a very open question. How much do you want them to know? There is a lot to tell.
Me: You’re right. Not too much then. Enough so that they can picture what you’re like.
Galen: (grins) As if I were holding a looking glass up to myself? Very well. I am of age, but not by much. My hair is black. My eyes are blue, except when I am projecting my force field, and then they are more like silver. I used to work at the Foundation for Research on Androva. I like inventing new spells. Is that enough?
Me: (nodding) That’s perfect. And where do you live now?
Galen: I would rather not tell you that. I am moving around a bit.
Me: But you are on Earth, I mean, Terra?
Galen: I am.
Me: Have you visited…?
Galen: Are you referring to the promise I made to Jax and Shannon? Yes, I have created the spell.
Me: What year is it on Terra now?
Galen: For me, it is the year 81.
Me: Then the events described in Stealing Magic have not happened yet?
Galen: Not yet.
Me: So you are still a magician?
Galen: I will always be a magician.
Me: (speechless for a second) That’s not possible.
Galen: (calmly) Isn’t it?
Me: I would have said no, but I’m not sure now.
Galen: Tell me… did Jax and Shannon make it back? Time travel is never the same twice, so I can’t be sure…
Me: (looks apologetic) I can’t answer that here. It’s not fair on anyone who hasn’t read the book.
Galen: Alright. Do you have any additional questions for me?
Me: Only one. Do you miss Androva?
Galen: (looks thoughtful) Sometimes. But I don’t believe in regrets.
Me: Thank you for talking to me today.
Galen: (nods politely) You’re very welcome.
