Bernard the Bard — Brenda Gable

The Regina's magical healing has stimulated New Camelot's idle magical currents, dormant since Mordred died defeating Arthur over 800 years ago. Diminutive fairies now occupy orchards, flowerbeds, rivers and forests. Elves have settled along the frontier. A nomadic people and their mythical griffons have claimed the lush river delta. However, other magical creatures are also stirring and they are not so benign. The souls of man-gods that ruled the land before humans arrived are using humans as vessels to live in. Goibniu cohabitates in the massive blacksmith, Micah Leigh. Lugh Long Arm finds the artistic Bernard to be a good match for his persona. The leader of another ancient magical species, the Fomorians, has also awakened from his deep sleep. The demon Balor is determined to drain the magic out of the Regina and use it to bring forth his brethren. Once resurrected, the immortal demons will feed off the souls of both fey and mankind. To stop the rise of the Fomorian Empire will require the united efforts of fey, man, and man-gods.
