Xothic Legend Cycle - Stories

Stories

Each story is set in the early 20th century and is told from the point of view of a scholarly narrator. Each narrator in turn becomes the protagonist of the next story in the series.

The entire Xothic Legend cycle (including a prologue) was collected in The Xothic Legend Cycle from Chaosium. A full synopsis of all these stories (readable as one whole story) is available on this site: http://web.archive.org/web/20070819204407/http://geocities.com/vadyanclique/xothic.html (GeoCities is gone, so found on web archive)

Famous quotes containing the word stories:

    A man is known by the books he reads, by the company he keeps, by the praise he gives, by his dress, by his tastes, by his distastes, by the stories he tells, by his gait, by the notion of his eye, by the look of his house, of his chamber; for nothing on earth is solitary but every thing hath affinities infinite.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Young man, there is America, which at this day serves for little more than to amuse you with stories of savage men and uncouth manners.
    Edmund Burke (1729–1797)

    Television programming for children need not be saccharine or insipid in order to give to violence its proper balance in the scheme of things.... But as an endless diet for the sake of excitement and sensation in stories whose plots are vehicles for killing and torture and little more, it is not healthy for young children. Unfamiliar as yet with the full story of human response, they are being misled when they are offered perversion before they have fully learned what is sound.
    Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
