Author has written 20 stories for Destiny.

Hello. Here you can read short descriptions of all of my Destiny fan-fictions. The majority of them focus on the members of Fireteam Dawnstar, the squad my Guardian characters belong to. I intend to write their stories as an anthology, a series of (mostly) stand-alone shorts that can be read in any order, which should make it easier to jump into the series. They are listed in the suggested reading order, which doesn't mean chronological order. I've noted beside each when they occur in the Destiny universe. Thanks for reading!


Dawnstar Anthology


These stories are my first forays into the world of Destiny. I wasn't very experienced when I wrote these, and it shows in their quality. They introduce four of my ten Guardian characters, and culminate in Children of the Sun, a fairly lengthy novella.


The Sunsinger - Main character: Elva - Occurs four years before the events of vanilla Destiny.

The Sunbreaker - Main character: Linvana - Occurs during the events of The Taken King.

The Bladedancer - Main characters: Telysa, Linvana - Occurs shortly before the events of The Dark Below.

The Gunslinger - Main character: Dellander - Occurs one year before the events of vanilla Destiny.

Children of the Sun - Main characters: Elva, Linvana, Dellander - Occurs during the Age of Triumph, two months before the events of vanilla Destiny 2.


These next few stories show how my Guardians deal with losing their light during the Red War. They expand on my existing characters, and introduce some new ones. Technically, The Forgotten War isn't part of this sequence, but it provides context to some things mentioned in Plan B. The final story of the sequence, The Hardest Part, ties the rest of the threads together, and as such, it won't make much sense unless you read the other stories first.


Nothing Left But the Fall - Main characters: Telysa, Linvana - Occurs immediately before the events of vanilla Destiny 2.

Reconciliation - Main character: Elva - Occurs during the early events of vanilla Destiny 2.

In A Little While - Main characters: Linvana, Telysa - Occurs during the early events of vanilla Destiny 2.

Shadows and Tall Trees - Main characters: Linvana, Telysa - Occurs during the early events of vanilla Destiny 2.

Interlude: The Forgotten War - Occurs in the years following the Collapse.

Plan B - Main characters: Ulaina, Brontis, Cannard - Occurs during the early events of vanilla Destiny 2.

Bottom of the Night - Main characters: Dellander, Yahmi - Occurs during the early events of vanilla Destiny 2.

The Hardest Part - Ensemble featuring Telysa, Linvana, Elva, Dellander, Brontis, and Mariel - Occurs during the early events of vanilla Destiny 2.


The stories in this section take place after the events of Destiny 2. They deal with the aftermath of the Red War, and explore the characters further.


A Sort of Homecoming - Main characters: Telysa, Linvana - Occurs four days after the conclusion of vanilla Destiny 2.

Winter - Main characters: Telysa, Linvana - Occurs five days after the conclusion of vanilla Destiny 2.

Wormfood - Main character: Damien Rai - Occurs three weeks after the conclusion of vanilla Destiny 2.

The Last Sunbreaker - Main character: Linvana - Occurs shortly after the events of Curse of Osiris.


Hammer & Chisel


Some of the Dawnstar stories focus on Linvana and Telysa. I call this collection Hammer & Chisel. In theory, it's a serialized sub-series of the Dawnstar Anthology.


Episode 1: Nothing Left But the Fall

Episode 2: In A Little While

Episode 3: Shadows and Tall Trees

Episode 4: A Sort of Homecoming

Episode 5: Winter

Interlude: Love Is All We Have Left


Legends


These are quick one-shots of Guardians in unusual circumstances. They're not tied to my other stories in any meaningful way, and are my way of exploring the boundaries of the Destiny world.

Two new Guardians are revived only for the Vanguard to discover that the Moon is stirring once more. They work as a team, both in the fight against the Hive, as well as in their investigation of what could prompt a Guardian to seek out the forbidden Vault of Glass on Venus.

The Hardest Part
In the wake of the attack, Fireteam Dawnstar reunites in the highlands of Mars. This is the final story set during the early days of the Red War, and ties many threads from the previous stories together. I recommend reading In A Little While, Shadows and Tall Trees, Reconciliation, Plan B, and Bottom of the Night first.

The Bladedancer reviews
The story of a Hunter stalking her most dangerous prey yet. This story takes place chronologically before The Sunbreaker, but you can read them in either order. I finally started to come in to my own as a writer with this one, and I feel it's much better than my previous works.

The Sunbreaker reviews
A company of mercenary Titans has been spotted on Venus. Captain Linvana is sent to investigate. This is the first and only story I've written that's based on events directly in-game. Adapting a mission was good practice, plus, it's an important character moment for one of my Guardians.

The Sunsinger reviews
This is the story of Elva, a young Warlock waking up for the first time on the acid coast of Venus. This was the first Destiny story I wrote. It was something of an introduction to the world of Desitny for me. It's not my best writing, but it's still a fun, simple read.
