Earth Awakened

Meet The Characters In Their Own Words

Carr Madoc:

I’m a born protector with an affinity to the element of Earth. From the earliest time I can remember, I was aware that I was stronger, faster and more aggressive than the humans with whom I went to school. I joined the Army to continue my role by protecting my fellow soldiers and civilians. Prior to the day I woke from what I perceived as a nightmare if you had told me I would be one of the prophesied Protector-Consorts to a Talisman, I would have told you to seek psychiatric help.

My first view of Lily Redfern might have been from the astral plane, but the feelings, the attraction I felt for her, were real. It was love at first sight. Yeah, I know. Bullshit. But it’s true. We were destined to be together, but I know in my gut that I would have fallen in love with her anyway. She is courage and intelligence wrapped up in a beautiful package. She makes me whole. Together we are stronger than we are apart. Ours is a true union of body, mind and spirit.

Lily Redfern:

I am an archeologist and an Earth Keeper. I enjoy my job working on ancient sites that have Terran connections. These are sites of power and they sing to me, revealing their long-hidden secrets. The humans I work with have no clue what I can do.

The day Gaia called me to serve as the Earth Talisman was the worst and best day of my life. Worst, because I had to deal with Darcy Miller, a man who stalked me relentlessly and had physically attacked me. Best, because I met Carr Madoc, my chosen Protector-Consort, who showed me what a real man is like.

From the first moment Carr touched my astral self with his, I knew he wasn’t like Darcy. Carr was considerate and concerned, but helped me get the job done. We stopped the Destroyer-generated quake in a long-stable fault system – – together. And he came to find me, battling fierce weather conditions to do so. He puts himself between me and danger, but treats me as a partner, someone to walk by his side. What a man. My man.

Trent Steed:

I’m half-human and half-Terran with protector genes and an Air affinity. A mongrel with one foot in each world.

My father was a Destroyer and a close friend of Algernon Brody. I admit I went into Brody’s employ knowing full well what he was and what he did to harm the Earth and the humans living on it. It didn’t take long for me to figure out that I couldn’t continue to work for the man. What he did, who he was, disgusted me. I was ready to leave when Autumn came into Brody’s life. It was love at first sight, for both of us. I remained for her. If I did nothing more in this world, I would save her.

I can’t forgive myself for the harm that befell Autumn while she was under the less than tender care of her abusive husband. Her courage in remaining shames me. She is the main reason we gathered the information we did about Brody’s foul plans. The fact that she is the Air Talisman means nothing to me, I would lover her if she was fully human with no powers. The fact I am her Protector-Consort is unbelievable. I am proud that Gaia has chosen me for Autumn. I will never fail her again.

Autumn Brody:

Algernon Brody is my husband. He killed my parents, his wife and later his son. He is evil, but his day will come. Even though I am a Terran, young in my powers, Gaia came to me, chose me as her Air Talisman. I’ve kept the secret through the months of hell I experienced each day at Brody’s hands.

My strength to endure comes from the powers given to me and from the pure love of Trent Steed, a man who does not know the role he is to play. He is my Protector-Consort and together we will control the winds, help to save the world from devolving into chaos.

Darcy Miller:

I’m a protector and just as good as that asshole Carr Madoc. The stole my woman. Lily Redfern is mine. I saw her first. I should have been the one to be her Protector-Consort now that she is the Earth Talisman.

Yeah, I’m running errands for Algernon Brody, an old fossil of a Destroyer. He wants Lily and I want Lily. With his help, I will get her then take her away. Well, I will once I get my mother out of Brody’s hands. My idiot father did not protect mom the way a man should protect his woman. Once I have Lily and my mom back in my keeping, neither one will ever be taken from me again.
