Mythos Prelude — Episode Jackie
Community Rating
Description
A series of short stories detailing Jackie's past.
Mythos is an original work by me. Prelude is a series of short stories that will detail the backgrounds of major characters; each of the short stories function as stand-alone reads and should work as jumping-on points for Mythos as a whole.#1, The Taboo — The taboo declares that Humans must never form large groups or remain in one place. After doing both for over a year following the birth of Jackie, this family must reckon with finally splitting up to obey the taboo.#2, Loid — As his allies face a monster alone, Loid laments his weakness—and finds his strength.#3, Check — Though Jackie has grown, they are still but a child. Their family does whatever it takes to protect them, even when an unstoppable threat appears.

- GudreanRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0To begin, Alistair is a GOAT! And funny to boot. Little baby Jackie, what a cutie they are. This place sounds like a real drag to live in. Suicide grass and acid trees, not to mention everything wants to kill or eat or kill and eat you! Can you actually imagine never getting a good night's sleep cause right around each corner is a monster that wants to kill you. The main plot to this story is survival but when you look deeper it's really about the people. It's rich with battles, mysteries, intriguing and not totally known special abilities and even a tear jerking or two. Everything an epic story needs to keep you coming back for more. Thanks! This was a great prequel to the Epic story of Jackie and friends.
