THE STEWARD
|
THE STEWARD chronicles the trials and tribulations of Ellen Doyle, the young woman tasked with the responsibility of the hidden Grand Portal to the Multiverse (which didn't come with instructions). Certain aspects of theoretical physics may offer some pragmatic explanations; however, since the laws of physics appear to differ in certain alternative realities, the manipulation of matter/energy by unexplained means--magic--is generally accepted there, albeit not yet fully understood.
Nonetheless, accessing alternative realities, dealing with other realms, their respective inhabitants and established societies call into question a host of vague assumptions regarding folklore and fantasy previously held by Ellen and the people close to her. In short, they must accept that some creatures of myth and folklore are real; some of whom hide in plain sight. After all, even the most fanciful legend often contains a grain of truth.
Variations among differing realities or realms can be vast, or rather subtle and seemingly little different from our home realm. Most boast sizable sentient populations--not all of whom are human--residing in rural areas, villages, and cities of various sizes. In most cases, realms and their inhabitants are prone to the same corruptive influences that perpetually plague evolving and established societies (greed, jealousy, ambition, crime, fear, etc.). It comes as no surprise that the weak are often preyed upon by the predatory strong.
Thrown into the midst of this maelstrom of realities, Ellen must make sense of it all, fulfill her obligations, and survive the periodic threats to herself and her friends, all the while striving to keep most of the chaos at bay. She does have a significant advantage through boyfriend, Detective Connor Redhawk: when needed, contemporary criminal investigation techniques and forensics can be brought to bear. Mysteries always warrant solving, especially those that affect multiple realms.
