Chanterelles
have long been considered a food of kings and noblemen. An indulgence
fallen to by the rulers and instigators of empires. Ironically, they
have also been a food of survival for explorers, foraging as they
blazed trails through the forests of the New World.
Alas,
empires come and go. Chanterelles are timeless.
The
first tome of The Chanterelle Chronicles defines the principle cast
of characters whose stories evolve, at times in synchrony, at others
in hysteresis with the entities they confront.
Characters
who are not always what they seem to be. Ones that are both physical
and figurative in nature. Interacting with others inside and outside
their own environment. Interactions that bring the reality of the
universe around them to life.
Though
each short story resides in its own distinct realm of space and time,
they are all linked to the reality of the author's presence. He is
both narrator and actor. At times, he is the observer of the events
that have unfolded before him. At others, he views events through the
prism of a distant past.
Though
this is the fifth edition of the Chronicles' myth, it should actually
be the sixth. The original transcript lost in the Realm of Time: a
past once silenced, and now rekindled.
