Time always marches forward, even in a world of adventure and dragons. Enter a land where the mystical and technological walk side by side, a country known as Aontech. Despite living in a fantastical world, the people who inhabit it are just like you or me. They want justice to prevail, to be recognized for their talents, or to just be loved and understood. Here are five stories of such people living the modern fantasy of Aontech. A young bard and a body gaurd encounter a dangerous gang leader, a private detective goes looking for a missing teenager, a jeweler wishing to prove that his race is more than what others say they are, an ex criminal willing to defend a stranger, and a father wanting to spend time and relate to his adoptive daughter.
