"Wondrous Souls" is a creative and original tale of a diverse group of Protagonists whom journey across the expanse of existence. Beginning on modern day Earth, we meet Enko. He has a curious mind that is stuck in his body due to an illness as a child. Fate would have it, that a strange encounter with a fly and the screen from his bedroom window, would take him on a journey throughout the stars. One such destination is Elyssia, a world of strange new colors and fascinating peoples. Here you will meet folks like the Pasa'masik, a Tribe who can speak with nature; and the lovable, but odd, people of the Mountain, the Jadi Roc. It is on Elyssia where the crew stumbles upon a corruption that is seeking to devour Life Trees, the source of life for every planet harboring living things. It is by no chance that Enko, Zub, Willow, and Olivia find each other in the midst of a brewing evil. Somewhere from the Beyond, this motley crew is called to embark on a journey that is everything from weird to love and everywhere in between. * Some things to note. First, there are a few characters and ideas that are based on First Nation Cree lore. If you are interested in learning more about Cree culture and teachings on the stars I would encourage you to look up Wilfred Buck. He is a science facilitator at the Manitoba First Nations Education Resource Center and an Indigenous star lore expert. Mr. Buck is also a member of the Opaskwayak Cree Nation. Lastly, this is the first draft of "Wondrous Souls: New Life in the Stars". I am constantly scanning for errors and ways to improve the story. With that said, I will post when I update edits or add new chapters. I hope you enjoy! --Stay curious E. J. Locke
