ON HIATUS || PLAGIUM'S SEQUEL 
Afternoon tea, walks about the garden...and a ride on a mechanically powered steam-carriage? Enter the regency steampunk world of Plagium!



We rejoin Tracey Higgenbottom as she explores the steampunk countryside of Dnalgne.

When Tracey takes a steam-carriage to visit her childhood friend, she expects to spend the week relaxing by the ocean cliffside. Instead, she once again finds herself swept into a mystery: a crime is brewing in the village...and she's been tasked to stop it!

With the help of familiar-and new-faces, Tracey embarks on a quest to stop the culprit and reveal their identity. But things are more than meets the eye-she must be careful of whom she trusts, and the threat of failure looms large...


A steampunk mystery for all to enjoy!

21 parts Complete
Combine a mountain filled with rugged orcs with a mysteriously arrived shop serving delicate cups of tea. Could this be the start of a revolution? **** On Orc Mountain, there is nothing but dirt, smoke, and backbreaking labor in the mines. There are no colors, no sun, no breaks for rest. There is definitely no tea. That is, until a mysterious tea shop appears in the orcs' domain. Glimmering in blue and pink, it stands out against the rugged backdrop. At first, the hardened inhabitants of the mountain are understandably leery about the malpositioned shop, wondering how it got there and why. Lava, a dedicated supervisor at the mines, takes it upon herself to investigate the suddenly-arrived business. Stepping inside, she meets Jasper, the bubbly fairy shopkeeper, who offers her a fragrant brew. Once Lava takes a sip, the sweet yet bitter taste pulls her in, making her clamor for more. Soon, all orcs are hooked on tea, but something sinister is brewing under the surface. When Lava catches Jasper conducting a secret meeting in a backroom, the true purpose of the tea shop is revealed. Soon she is forced to choose between her newfound passion for tea (and Jasper) and her dedication to the mountain's mining operations. *** Legends & Lattes x Shrek *** An ONC novella using prompt #15: A mysterious tea shop suddenly appears and you can't help but wonder: what's its true purpose, and why does it seem so important?

A dead body brings a lot of unwanted attention and a lot of unanswered questions, too. Her brother-in-law, Sheriff Bill Whittaker has sworn Hadley to secrecy. The newly elected mayor of Hope Rock County is giving the good sheriff a fit. There are rumors that he wants to clean house, especially at the local law enforcement's office. How can you not trust your younger sister with all that you know? How do you keep the peace in the family and keep Bill's trust? It seems you can't. At least, not without one big sister fight. To mend family fences and help heal Maury's hurt feelings, Hadley decides to take her little sister on a road trip. But this is not just any road trip. Hadley makes reservations at the VistaView Motor Court, a revamped and renovated resort built in the 1920s. She visits her local beauty shop for a trim before heading off, but when Lou Edna, proprietor of the Beauty Boutique, hears that she and Maury are planning to hightail it out of town, the beautician insists she must accompany the pair. It's going to take a lot of fast talking to smooth this out with Maury. There is mystery surrounding the VistaView, and it's been decades in the making. The answers are there, but will Hadley be clever enough to pick up on the clues? Will she live to tell what she has uncovered? Will they lock her away in an insane asylum if she does? Join these ladies as they embark on another wacky mountain mystery. The Hadley Pell Cozy Mystery Series: 1. Nobody's Sorry You're Dead 2. Nobody Knows Your Secret 3. Nobody Can Say It's You 4.
