Summary
Who would have thought, in the opening decades of the twenty-first century, that a fabled, lost race could rekindle a forgotten war to topple Man's empire. That it could awake to stalk humanity once again. Why did we forget? How could we?

Hi! I recently came across your story and was genuinely impressed by how vivid and immersive it felt. The world and characters came across so clearly that they naturally sparked a lot of visual ideas while I was reading. I really enjoy creating art inspired by stories that leave a strong impression, and yours definitely stayed with me after I finished. You have a great sense of atmosphere and imagery, and it was a pleasure spending time in the world you created.

Bever Branson: The population of the gold district in this story alone would make it worth reading, then throw in some rattlesnakes and the old Tom cougar and modern law enforcement ends up at about 175 to one, and still can't bring down the bad guy. Read it yourself to see how it all turns out.
