Dennis Block is one person you don’t want to piss off. He’s powerful enough, independent enough, and unique enough, to just deal with what comes. His problem is not the people doing the aggravation. No, his problem is that every time he deals with something, his life gets more complicated. And at sixty five before magic happened, he’d been working on a simple and peaceful life. That’s receding at an alarming rate now. He’s already juggling emergency work, colony work, and random work. And now he has to step up again, and be the Security Mage.

Dennis Block has come to terms with being a mage. He’s still juggling different forms of magic work. He hasn’t chosen a lane yet. But he is adamant about two things. He doesn’t want to see his name in the media again. And he isn’t interested in having students. Be a guest helper, sure. He’s the Emergency and Colony Mage after all. But no students means no rank of master, and he’s good with that choice. He’s a working mage, and the last thing he wants is to be is a Master Mage.

Dennis Block has never picked a lane and stayed in it. He has a history of getting bored, and moving on. The problem now is, he’s in demand for the first time in his life. He’s redefined what an Emergency Mage should be, and he’s good at it. But there’s so much else he could be doing. His training was aimed a certain way, and that wasn’t what he’s mainly been doing. So before he can decide on where to focus, he needs to try being… The Colony Mage.

Dennis Block is reinventing his life. Again. Magic was not something he ever expected, but now he has it, it’s just something new to make a living at. At least now it’s stable, even if sometimes whimsical in what happens. The League of Worlds is slowly adapting to mages being among them, and mage services augmenting traditional ones. Out in Ralnor space, where a civil war still rages, they know the value of a good mage being there. And colonization is expanding rapidly in the Orion Cluster Protectorate, various places in Ralnor space, and on the two Terran colonies. It seems to be a ...

Christopher Ecclestone has lived in the dark for a long time. As a fighter pilot on the old Ark Royal, on the very day all his wishes came true, fate took them away again. Seven years later, all he can do is listen, as a galactic core wide war begins. Only the brand new Imperium had space fighters, and they were a liability, not an asset. Now the Trixone have them, they've swept their frontier clean, and invaded Ralnor and Keerah space. The Ralnor asked the fledgling Imperium for help. But the Imperium only has a small number of fighter pilots, with nearly half being rookies without a ...

Bud is now the captain of a small capital ship, and so tactics must change. And once again, Navy Mage Squadron One leads the way. But the more the Imperium ups their game, the faster the Trixone adapt. And in the middle of things changing around Bud, the new prototype dreadnought is stolen. While seemingly unimportant to the war, Navy Mage One and Eagle Wing will find out just how wrong that perception is. Just when is a mysterious invitation a good thing or a bad thing, and will they be able to tell the difference in time?

When magic activates at standard 70, it tends to manifest according to their profession or career. Dennis was a jack of all trades, master of none, type. And worse, he’s spent his life never really achieving any sort of high standard. Training for those who manifest older is generally not needed. They simply adapt. But for Dennis, nothing has ever gone easy, and his magic isn’t going to be any different. Training for him is not only needed, but essential. The problem is, training is for the young. And he’s not. The only thing simple about suddenly being a mage is being able to say ...

An Ensign in the navy is a Pilot Officer in fighters, and both are entry level officer ranks, and rarely ever paid any attention to. A squadron of Ensigns is a contradiction in terms, especially to the new influx of experienced pilots from new Imperium members. But the team are too busy with Eagle Wing to notice the changes happening around them. Magic in combat changes the dynamic. But every time one side gains an advantage, the other will adapt somehow. As the first of the new Excalibur squadrons ready for combat, Bud and his squadron must lead. But who is the real enemy?

But when has what anyone wanted been part of what happens to them?
