The Druids ruled in government, religion, and other positions of power until the Romans showed up in what was called Briton. With cruel intent, the Romans spread vicious rumors about sacrifice and butchery until the Druids were a diminished clan in hiding. The Romans thought they ended that reign, pulled out in the fifth century, and maybe so, but they opened the door to evolution. There were, at that time, hardly noticed, hundreds of Sorcerers playing low key and pulling strings from the shadows. If the two should meet... Fodder for #The Storyteller, of course. Enjoy.

There was a Blackfoot so important that it boggles the mind to have him buried in obscurity, lost among the wild tales of success and triumph, regardless of how inaccurate. A non-violet leader, a damned good warrior, and not afraid to kill, if he had to. But he was one of the very few who saw the futility of war against the white man.

Fun to research, fun to write, but the truth herein may be stretched, too. Fodder for #TheStoryteller, right?

It was just a rock. A pretty one, and it intrigued the Incas as a bauble, a trade item. It helped keep the Inca Empire afloat. The Spanish made the first recorded find back in 1600.

Perhaps, therein, lies a story. Such legends, rumors, and sometimes successes, are the fodder for #TheStoryteller.
