A Singular Devotee

by Cathy Smith

Robot monk Brother Jubal is the choir director of his order and a fan of Meerani of Maruwat’s devotional hymns. The rediscovery of a forbidden text makes him wonder if Meerani was the first singular devotee of the Dark One of Spectre. Does Meerani’s chosen deity, Saanvla, bear any connection to the patron of his order?

About the author

My name, “Cathy Smith”, sounds like white bread, but I’m Mohawk and I write so I use “Khiatons” which means “I’m a writer.” in Mohawk. I love myths and see modern fantasy and scifi as modern myths. I read trending articles on science, technology and health so my stories end up being more grounded than expected with mundane details bleeding into the fantastic. I believe this approach is the traditional outlook of my people so I’m carrying on their storytelling tradition in my own way.
