Flashes of Virtue and Honor

Beneath the banners of kings and the shadows of monsters, one old knight still believes in virtue. When the world forgets what honor means, Sir Bryan of Erdenwald remembers. From cursed trolls to isolated witches, from the flesh pits of Far Shores to the burning sands of Raz Kazram, this grizzled knight wanders a realm torn by greed and cruelty—armed not only with sword and shield, but with mercy, courage, and an unyielding will to do what is right. Each flash-fiction story in this anthology burns with the fire of chivalric ideals tested by darkness: A troll who remembers his humanity. A witch who measures justice in pain and forgiveness. A slave who becomes a son. A warrior who chooses compassion over victory. Forged in the tradition of Tolkien, Abercrombie, and Le Guin, Flashes of Virtue and Honor delivers ten cinematic tales of redemption, courage, and the fragile light that endures within even the most battle-scarred souls. Written by Eli Taff Jr., a new voice in moral fantasy inspired by fatherhood and the timeless struggle between grace and wrath, this collection reminds us that knighthood is not a title—it's a choice made every day. ??
