Steward Stories
"What was there in life, if not an endless wrestling against an unconquerable foe?"
*****
Freedom doesn't bring the peace the nation ofMaraiah hoped for.
Giants, soldiers, and nomads fill the promised homeland--and they'll do anything to hold onto power.
Thrown into an unfamiliar landscape and constant danger, Maraiah struggles to maintain her identity.
It's a time of faith. Aia raises up Stewards to stand between His people and death. He works great miracles through them, reshaping the very ground of the promised land.
It's a time of disappointment. Home looks nothing like Maraiah had dreamed. Generations drag on, and still violence, confusion, and doubt abound.
Will a Steward ever truly establish peace?
*****
These seven short stories take place between Child of the Kaites and The Steward's Apprentice, providing snapshots of key figures whose struggles with pride, trust, courage, and identity shape Maraiah's future.

Beth Wangler has loved stories since before she could read. Growing up, she had a voracious appetite for books and loved nothing better than losing herself in a story. On one particular day around third grade, Beth paused in reading to realize that she could add books to the world, too. She's been writing ever since.
Beth predominantly writes speculative fiction, though she occasionally branches out into poetry or historical fiction. She writes to entertain, to share hope, and to explore truth. When not writing, she teaches History and English, reads, and crochets.
Beth has written two more fairy tales, The Kagraffs' Curse and Noemi's Dragon, both available for free at https: //bethwangler.wordpress.com/. Her fantasy novel, Child of the Kaites, will be published in 2018.
