Thy Will be Done
A chilling tale of Earth-Beta set during the nightmare year of the
Occupation of the Dark Circle.
Displaced from a multiverse in which they know of the Overlord's triumph
and the great fall of humanity as nothing more than a author's tale, the
Exiles, seven strange travellers all too familiar with the concept of
fantasy becoming reality, must stand helplessly by whilst the nightmare
unfolds, lest by their overt interference they endanger not only Earth-Beta
but the Alpha universe should they try to alter what fate has decreed must
come to pass for the people of that world.

| Prologue |
On a frigid midwinter night two days before the first anniversary of
the Overlord's death and the breaking of the Circle, five children huddle
close about a campfire in the returning British woodland while Rhiannon, one
of the seven strange, other-world founders of the fledgling Emerald Kingdom,
tells of the Occupation's end and the chilling tale of how she and her
companions came to their world. |

| Part 1 Prologue |
Awakened by Helios with a nightmare vision planned by them a thousand
years before, Pluto prepares to travel to a world where Crystal Tokyo was
never born and use a gate that does not belong to her. But what price for
the nightmare that fate has decreed for Earth-Beta is she willing to pay in
order to protect her world and who are the travellers from beyond reality's
end who may have averted it but whom she must either contain or destroy lest
they by their interference reveal her and her world too soon to the Overlord
and the Dark Circle? |
| Part 1 Chapter 1
|
It is the seventeenth of January 1993 and the world stands unknowing upon
the brink of ruin. On a commercial flight bound for Washington DC, panic
takes hold at the coming of the great darkness; while in the realm of
Helcion stirs the first rumour of what is to come. |
