For Continuing Strange by Annie Harris

Story notes: This is a work in progress, with a long way to go, as the gaps and edges are those not only of the book narrative but of the author's time as well (So what's new?). Warmest thanks to the dear people who took the time to write kind words about my first attempt at a fanfic 'Revelry by Night', which will turn up in a slightly revised version later on in this story: you are my sunshine :)

Archivists' Note: Dagmar made fanart for this piece: For Continuing Strange (Chapter 6 scene) and Thy Hand (for Chapter 8). Side-story by same author: For Continuing Strange: The Ent Bath.
