Chapter
Ballad: Little Oliver
Little Oliver spends his days not just in service, but in silent admiration, tucked away beneath the grandeur of Earl Joyce’s estate. Though only a page, his heart is filled with thoughts far too vast for his station. He watches Lady Minnie-Haha move through sunlit halls and across rose-strewn gardens, her presence as melodic as her name implies. His love for her is quiet but unwavering, stitched into the seams of his uniform and the hours he spends polishing silverware that reflects her face. He knows…-

Ballad: Lieutenant-Colonel Flare
Lieutenant-Colonel Flare inspires a reimagining of leadership, far removed from the noise of battle and the glitter of medals. His command is not marked by discipline through fear, but by nurturing through kindness. Among his ranks, soldiers live more like poets than warriors, exchanging drills for delicate crafts, and treating every task—no matter how domestic—with gentle pride. This softness, however, is not weakness. It reflects a conscious rejection of violence, where strength is measured in mercy…-

Ballad: King Borria Bungalee Boo
King Borria Bungalee Boo reigned over his kingdom with more appetite than wisdom, ruling not with justice or diplomacy, but with an endless craving that kept his subjects uneasy. His court had once been filled with noblemen and servants, but over time, that number dwindled—not by rebellion or disease, but by digestion. Only four subjects remained by the time hunger overtook him fully, each marked by their personality and their fear of being next on the menu. Among them, Pish-Tush-Pooh-Bah flaunted…-

Ballad: Haunted
Haunted begins with a reflection not on the usual specters of graveyards or shadowed halls, but on the less visible phantoms that cling to memory—those born of social missteps and emotional bruises. The protagonist carries these burdens with a reluctant familiarity, haunted by moments society deemed failures. Black Monday looms, not for any ghostly threat but for the looming return to school, that universally dreaded ritual of rigid timetables, recitations, and cold stares. Early love, once bright and…-

Ballad: Gregory Parable, LL.D.
Gregory Parable, LL.D. lived in a thatched cottage that looked as though it had been plucked from the page of an illustrated countryside fable. Tucked between ivy-covered hedgerows and the hum of bees, the modest home stood proudly without rot, leaks, or intrusion from time. There, Gregory—a figure of both grandeur and gentleness—spent his days lost in Latin syntax and historical discourse, drifting between Caesar’s conquests and the grammatical precision of Balbus. His books were his companions, and…-

Ballad: Gentle Alice Brown
Gentle Alice Brown opens with a contrast that sets the tone for the entire tale. She is described as kind and demure, yet her family background is anything but gentle.

Despite this, Alice remains composed, her heart quietly yearning for the sight of a handsome man from the Customs House who strolls past their home. She watches him with fascination, not out of lust or desire…-

Ballad: Etiquette
Etiquette guides the unusual and ironic survival tale that unfolds in this ballad, where two stranded gentlemen on a remote island let manners dictate their fate. Rather than working together in the face of adversity, they let the absence of a formal introduction keep them apart, highlighting how arbitrary social rules can override basic human instincts. Their division of the island becomes a metaphor for the self-imposed barriers people build, even when common sense urges otherwise. GRAY and SOMERS, each…-

Ballad: Ellen McJones Aberdeen
Ellen McJones Aberdeen appears not merely as a bystander but as a flame that burns quietly at the center of a tale charged with culture, music, and personal change. In the company of Highlanders and bold pipers, she stood not just as a figure of beauty but as a listener who truly felt the spirit of the land. Her admiration for the stirring tunes of Angus McClan reflected more than simple affection—it revealed a connection to something ancient, something that stirred both memory and soul.
