36. The Long Walk of the World Mage.
Earth used to be closely connected to Gaia, the fey realm, but after King Arthur defeated the armies of Mordred, a treaty forced a rift between the two worlds, keeping the fey out of human affairs. In the modern day, a group of arcane students find evidence that the bad events around the world, from the simple things of global warming and the spread of deserts, to the struggles in small third world countries, may be related to the two worlds drifting too far apart. The group must find the next World Mage, the person who can bring the worlds closer together, and repair the rift. Many who know about magic-users, however, would like to see earth stay for humans, and even some fey don't want the reconnection of worlds. Can the party protect this young woman on a journey around the world, on a quest to save it?
37. The Fall of the Elves.
After the first great war between Men and Elves, Elves are forced mostly into the woodlands, isolated on what effectively are reservations. In one forest, both light Elves and dark Elves are forced to live together. As yet, the two races are simply different ethnic groups, but a splinter group among the dark Elves is turning their people toward villainy and treachery, making pacts with evil in an attempt to drive off the humans and reclaim their home. In the center is the child of a dark Elf demon summoner, who offered her soul and body to a demon for revenge. The demon took the soul, but kept the body for a while, so it could sow chaos and evil in this world. The child thinks his mother died decades ago in her act of revenge, but a dark Elf who knows far too much about him is offering him a chance to 'come back to his family.'
