Because I had nothing to lose at that point. I wasn't afraid of him. He knew that I was his only option. if he killed me, then no one would ever, ever write his story. And he'd live forever knowing that he'd blown his only chance to set his record straight.A lot...

Fighting off a rampaging troll in the woods just to rescue her milk cow wasn't the first thing on her list today.
Neither was finding a male wood nymph, who needed her help. What didn't help was his attitude of being "Nature's gift to women", but his broken leg meant, he was going to perish out there, when the next troll came along.
Come to think of it, maybe that troll was after him, and not her Bessie-cow? Regardless, she just couldn't leave him...

Harpy and I were born from the union between a goddess of nature and a god of humans.
While she was the black sheep of the family, I was the shining star who could do no wrong.
Opposite twins, our whole long lives.
Through history, you may have heard of us. Mostly written as hags, foul-smelling man-killers.
Of course, you can never believe the press. They only partially report the facts. The bits that suit them.
Our longer history was...

Two scientists broke time - trying to travel in it.
If they weren't so cute, I don't think I'd be as forgiving.
Still, they have no clue what they just invented.
In these days of overnight express delivery, they could make a fortune. And the same device could deliver ticking bombs to any government building or office building anywhere. Instantaneously.
You'd think these scientists would have learned something after the Manhattan Project....

I'd been caught in a cross-fire. And just got saved from bleeding out.
Now my shape-shifting was on hold until I healed. But I was stuck in human shape, having to re-learn the human experience.
I don't know when I first appeared on Earth. Before recorded time somewhere. And for the last few centuries or so, I'd been happy as a library cat.
But then I got bored, and started helping out with simple missions.
Good thing they got to me in time on...

Where I had come from, how I had got here, I didn't know.
All I knew were my powers, the one's I knew from my childhood. The one's I'd spent my youth learning and perfecting. Witchcraft that could kill someone, or save their life.
But, now I was here in a strange world, different people, unusual customs...
I didn't even know if my spells would work here - or if they burned witches at the stake - or tortured non-witches.
And, on top of that I was...

It's not often these days that you read about a real goddess.
One who was a lover of Ulysses – and saved his butt more than he would care to admit (and never told his biographer.) And one who influenced history for good and bad in more ways than you know.
But only the very worst stories about how she looked and acted have been passed down through the ages.
So she kidnapped a writer to tell it straight. Only he had to write this as fiction, since...

Her club. Her rules. Except where magic came in. Then it was her way or the highway.
And, all of her regulars knew not to cross that line. Vamps, psychics, shifters, they were all welcome. But, any serious spell-casting inside her club and they'd be worse than banned. They'd be extinguished.
Her bouncers were the toughest anywhere. Even the ones that were no higher than your kneecap - or the ones you couldn't see.
Dixie never used magic in her...

When I woke up this morning, I felt like falling in love.
Something had happened in my dreams, while I was sleeping. I'd only gotten away from my spell-protected farm for a little bit.
Just going to find some wild fruit in season, and maybe to pick a bouquet of wild flowers to brighten up my farm house.
And then I found a tiny oasis of green ferns and blue flowers that was growing in the deep footprint of the troll I'd recently vanquished.

The old coven was destroyed and one witch remained, to rule them all.
Her power was absolute, and it came from those she vanquished.
The last rite to perform was the Dance - where all these powers and their personalities were unified into a single force.
Without that core immersion, the powers and personalities would war with each other forever - inside her mind.
This had only been attempted once in all known history. And failed, fragmenting all...

One too many. And, I couldn't remember last night, either. Both unlikely for a witch.
But, my powers were still here. Well, sort of.
And, that's all I remembered.
Not my name, not how I got dressed (or un-dressed) like this. Or where I was.
Helluva hangover, especially for a witch.
The problem was that I didn't remember anything before I woke up. Nothing. No childhood, no witch training, nothing.
Not even my own name.
I'd been spelled but good. Now...

Tesseracts fold time and space. I inherited the ability to both find and control them.
Unlimited access to all universes. Sort of.
Yea, freaky. I know too well how freaky.
So, I spent my life on the move, through many times, and many spaces. Forgetting where and when I'd been, wasn't an option. My salvation was mastering the trick of retracing my path. To find my original home, to find the love I'd lived so long without.
It wasn't just missing...

They call me Mysti. Because of my mystic origins.
The beings who raised me almost killed me before they found out my real value.
They became my mentors, and then - as my powers expanded - my servants.
What they never knew is that "mystic" means both master and novice.
So, I left them to find someone who could actually teach me balance between the two extremes that lived inside me. And, like a double-edged sword, could cut both ways.
And, like...
