The Fool on the Mountain
LIVEWRITING EVENT
THE FOOL ON THE MOUNTAIN
The unlikeliest pair in the post-tech world of the Fifth Millennium
HE is a paladin: a brilliant young champion of war, impeccable in character. But he has lost the duel of his life, is forsaken as a loser and a traitor by his home empire, and is separated from the man he loves… the man who defeated him, and might well go on to destroy that empire. Torn and despairing, he is considering ending it all.
SHE is an iconoclast: an elderly, eccentric sage living in a cave on a barren mountain slope, kept in food by local people and pilgrims alike who appreciate her uttered jewels of wisdom—or is it madness? Either way, she seems to have learned the secret of absolutely unshakable happiness, and all who speak with her come away somehow changed.
He needs living space. She needs a guy to do chores.
Maybe he’ll learn something.
Maybe they both will.
A collaborative weblit novel of love and enlightenment
