An ny'er be finished tale of music and inspiration centered around Mila's preparations for her upcoming wedding, and its clash with rock and roll music as Barris has his first experiences with a mystical electric guitar. From the first notes he plays on the instrument, everything changes...
Before you get too invested in this story, please read the opening notes carefully. I tried to give it some closure as well, but alas, the deed is done and this story, has soil been laid there upon.
Mila, Barris and Sato visit shops on the Alivale main strip and find out about the death of one of the seniors of the town, and the artist who's moved into that senior's home as the new owner.
However, after their visit to these shops, something doesn't seem quite right as a mysterious fog rolls in to envelope the Alivale region.
Something lurks within the fog. Something sinister, once again inviting Mila, Nelony and Shaela to investigate the second of Alivale's greatest mysteries.
Mila, Barris and Sato team up to host a winter holiday party. They're reunited with nearly the entirety of the cast of the Sanctum, who attend.
Mila, Barris and Sato soon are forced to leave their comfort zone, only to end up on a bizarre quest when an old friend shows up, seeking their assistance.
They in turn enlist the help of Nelony and Shaela, heading off into what becomes one of the most outlandish of adventures in Sanctum history.
Tales From The Sanctum: A Lady's Prerogative - Leave It To A Beaver
An history meeting of the leaders of two neighbouring nations becomes the starting point of an incredible adventure. All centered around a tiny mammal from the Canadian wilderness and a man proving his love for a woman.
A Lady's Prerogative: Sanata Claus And His Helves
The holiday season has arrived, years before Barris has even met Mila, and yet such events are underway so as to send ripples through the Aether, outward from time in all directions. A holiday double date turns into a hilarious adventure in this A Lady's Prerogative story that precedes even the first book: A Lady's Prerogative: The Yearning And The Learning.

While Mila dance's with the Devil In Music, Barris is off to Shepperton by the Thames in London to help Sato do some reorganizing of his curios and treasures shop. Things get a little hot under the collar for reasons you'll need to read for yourself in this short. Viewer discretion is advised.
Sometimes the biggest heroes come in the smallest packages. Unfortunately that's also the case for the mischievous too.
A Lady's Prerogative: Hallow's Weave (Finished second draft)
Started in June of 2016. First published in July of 2016 on Tales Of The Sanctum by Brian Joseph Johns.
Every year should it follow 'round the season of Wytch's Hallow,
Upon the night of the weave, it would be called Hallow's Eve.
The Wytches and Sorcers comparing their weave forces.
A game that is fought through planned fear and negotiable fraught.
For those whose hearts do overcome may find their truly treasured sum.
Its weight much less than air though its true value without compare.
There's winners and there's losers both while be entertaining muses.
And one lost soul to retrieve on this Wytch's Hallow's Eve...
Started in March of 2015. First published in November of 2015.
A dark night in the household. A mysterious man hunting Mila within. The ghosts of two long passed Women of history hold the key. This is a night full of surprises and the mysteries of a distant land of Gypsies, Werewolves and a dreaded Count... and of course Barris caught in the midst of this with nothing but his sense of humour and his gauchies.
Mila and Barris once again find themselves in the midst of one of Margaret and Susannia's games. They are whisked off to the far away land of... Niagara Falls? Along with Shaela, Nelony and Sato where they meet an old friend who holds the key to their fate...
A Lady's Prerogative: The Test Of Time (Unfinished Work In Progress)
Started in May of 2011. First Published on one of my personal blogs (the now archived Poetry And Fiction) by Brian Joseph Johns.
This story takes place within the same universe as the rest of A Lady's Prerogative and introduces some of the most important concepts about the Sanctum, though at this point the Sanctum does not appear in the text. Nor do any of the characters with which you might be familiar. If you've been reading some of the other A Lady's Prerogative short fiction such as Barris, Where Art Thou? and Bella's Tarot Reading, this novel will give you a background on the mischievous ghostly apparitions Margaret and Suzannia. The book takes place at various points in time around the main story arc of ALP 1 and 2.
This book remains unfinished and I am not sure if I'll ever return to it, but I do keep it here in the chance that I might one day decide to finish it.
