《Qwekobo》11
Advertisement
Elderly, white-haired, with a monocle and pocket watch that shine in the limelight, Dr. Sabbatine wears a long golden mantle that makes her look more like a historical dowager than a modern scientist.
Other, younger scientists, including a few women, stand in the great doctor's shadow—perhaps a carefully orchestrated metaphor. The woman in the red jacket who registered everyone also waits behind Sabbatine. Off to one side, you notice a tall, bearded man dressed in a dark, sober suit. As Dr. Sabbatine resembles an ancient potentate, this man resembles a modern diplomat, but you know he is not. He is Stralchus Petron: theologian, philosopher, visionary mystic—or deadly fanatic, depending on who you ask. Everyone in Byzantium has an opinion about him, but you cannot tell truth from fiction well enough to appraise the man honestly.
Stralchus peers into the darkness with eyes unaffected by the limelight and spots you. He holds your gaze for a moment before turning to regard the doctor.
"Ladies and gentlemen," Dr. Sabbatine says, without preamble or even waiting for everyone to look her way, "I have invented a device that permits us to travel through time."

A Dream of Wings and Flame
Kobolds cower at the bottom of the foodchain, forced to eke out a meager existence in the most wretched of caves. Most have made peace with their lot in life; one of eating scraps and carrion. They hide and run from predators, delaying the inevitable day when they aren't fast or sneaky enough to make their escape. But not Samazzar. Sam is different from other Kobold pups. Traps and caves might keep him and his people alive, but sometimes, just living isn't enough. The blood of dragons pumps through his veins, and Sam isn't willing to settle for mere survival. Whether by claw, magic, or cunning, one day he will soar above the plains, predator rather than prey. And nothing, be it the mockery of his tribe, the hazards of the deep caves, or even the almost insurmountable difficulty of successfully evolving his bloodline, nothing is going to stop him. Join Samazzar and his boundless optimism on his quest to throw off the shackles placed on his tiny scaled body by fate so that he can claim his birthright once and for all. - - - - - Kobold design by Faewild Coloring/Everything Else on the cover KrazeKode
