AND THE RISE OF THE ETERNAL PALADIN Ulfgar, paladin, dwarf. Ulfgar has been a background character in a number of my stories, and this, the longest of my works, is his tale. He is the most important character in the world of the Four Realms, he is the author's alter ego, and is the perfect guide to explain everything that's likely confused you so far. Continue to the first part to read the rest of the introduction. Content: Ulfgar swears a lot, he is a bit on the thick side to begin with although that does improve over the years, he has no compunction whatsoever in killing evil folk, he's rather prudish about sex and although he is gay, (or to use the language of the Four Realms, Masculine Attracted) he is, at least to begin with, embarrassed about his preferences of attraction and flatly refuses to turn his journal into "A sordid page turner", to use his own words. The story does include violence and Ulfgar dealing with some pretty gruesome people. I do not think I've been overly graphic about anything, so I'm not marking this story as mature, but if anyone thinks otherwise please tell me. Note that the cover image does not belong to me.

Nobody remembers who built the Santa Maria House. Most agreed it was pre-war, though nobody could agree on which war. An old landmark in Washington, DC, it has been called home by criminals, saints, politicians, devils, addicts, and artists. Some tenants were monsters that people wished only existed in folklore, some were regular folks who worked multiple jobs to feed their children, all of the tenants were trying to get by. Each one of them has left part of themselves within its stone walls. These are the memories they left behind.
