Author's Notes:

The Camara stories are set in a fantasy world. There is lots of intrigue, swordplay, magic, death, torture, rape, etc., and even some regular sex. Some or all of these are included in each story. I try not to dwell upon the negative aspects, but sometimes the story, or the characters themselves, demand a detailed accounting of such actions. The stories are definitely NOT written for the torture/rape/snuff crowd.

This is not your usual feel-good sex romp. It is raw, unfiltered, and sometimes very painful and emotional. Many different types of subjects are included, some playful, some deeply disturbing. Times were very different then than they are today. Do not read if you have a delicate nature, or if you cannot handle unsettling subjects, sometimes described in detail. On the other hand, sex, lust, love, and good times are also part of most of these stories.

Again, I write stories, where the feelings and interactions of the various people are as important as anything else, and in this story, probably more important than anything else. The characters here won't resemble Dick and Jane next door, but you will recognize their feelings, hopes, dreams, fears, and anything else necessary to tell the tales I weave.

There is a very limited amount of hard-core sex of any kind in this tale. In fact, the swordplay probably has three times as much material as the hard stuff. There is, however, a fair bit of personal angst, sensuality, soul-searching, and romanticism. If all you want is a quick jerk-off (or rub-off), this isn't the story for you. If, however, you want to be introduced to a new set of heroes, read on.

If you've seen the new TV show Xena, then you know what Camara looks like. Her image was in my mind when I began writing this story. That is the *only* thing I have taken from the show. Everything else is mine, so anyone hoping that this is a Xena story is out of luck. Even so, you still might like it ...

Lastly, it took me more than a year to finish this story. I'd like to know if anyone out there is actually reading what I write.
