seven Earths, and where only by catching a Myth will it bring unity.

Origin & Inspiration
I've long held a passion for all things
western, and mountain life. OK, so that is a lie. I grew up a nerd in
suburban California, less than an hour from San Francisco. I never
really paid too much attention to Westerns. I was interested in
fantasy and sci-fi. And so it was for nearly 40 years of my life, but
a most remarkable turn of events unfolded changing me to the core.
I moved away from the suburbs to live
in the mountains, a mile high among the pines, and bears, and snowy
winters. It was quiet, darker at night, brighter in the day, and a
slower pace to life. I started to appreciate things I had never
considered much about...like westerns, like frontier life, like a rugged
life of man against nature, be it in the high plains, a barren desert,
or forested mountains. A foot in the waters of that
river turned into a deep swim and now it is truly my passion. Some of my
cherished memories of my father (don’t get the wrong idea, he is still
very much alive) are now centered around him sharing his love of
Westerns from his youth.
Sadly I had to leave the mountains
after many years and am back again in flatland cities, and I
ache to return to the mountains as soon as I can.
