A bard's stories and poetry light the dark woods and a magical child sets fire to a priest's faith. In one land a cautious lord fears prophecy while in another a young priestess carries home a master's ashes. Wandering across the globe and through time an alien learns all-too-well what it means to be human. In four new poems a chosen one rises and a goddess cures the ignorant. We learn exactly what it takes to be royal and see how heritage endures even beyond the Oort Cloud.</span></p><p></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(0 0 0 0); color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Featuring a mix of established and emerging writers </span><em style=background-color: rgba(0 0 0 0); color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Baubles From Bones: Issue 3</em><span style=background-color: rgba(0 0 0 0); color: rgba(0 0 0 1)> offers a variety of eclectic and far-reaching perspectives with the stories and poetry to match.</span></p><p></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(0 0 0 0); color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Featuring original fiction by: A.W.
