This is my first attempt at writing in this form.

It has been - and still is - a constant process of addition,

subtraction, revision, reflection, revelation and self education.

Thank you for taking the time to read what I have written.

If you would like some visual context for Eurides,

Youtube search - Regiment tribal fusion dance.

(You won't be disappointed)

The opening of the story is set within the historical shipwreck

of the S.S. Loch Ard. The Loch Ard Peacock is on display at

the Flagstaff Hill Museum in Warrnabool, Victoria Australia.

I am deeply grateful to Royal Road and all the authors and
