The Severis Tales

Another world. Magic, technology, elves, dragons, and everything in between. Ordinary people working through ordinary life. Life could not be better than this, can it?

Enter The Severis Tales, a continuing short story series that focuses on the lives of the Severis family and the townsfolk around them. While presented in the genre of general fantasy, The Severis Tales is not your usual epic fantasy, with major battles between colossal armies and wars between gods. This world has possibly seen some of the heavy stuff, but those events are not in the scope of the series.

Introduction

The aim of the series is to offer a glimpse into the lives of the ordinary people who live in their world, called Algeonon. The series is set primarily in the town of Barlett, Marius County, in the country of Caldore.

The idea came about during a brainstorming session, which turned into a philosophical discussion on the subject. Specifically, in those worlds where the main focus is on plot specifics, and the wide array of characters central to the plot. I genuinely thought that, at some point, there must be value in the stories of some of the side-characters, or reference to places that aren't mentioned again. From there, I thought of a world which could have "epic" stories around it, then subtracted it from the abstracted creation. From there, the world of Algenon was born, along with Barlett, the Severis family, and several of the other characters and places within town.
