The Travels of Asher in Bloomington, MN

Faith and fortune go hand in hand for Asher, a monk of Medieval Canterbury who devotes his whole heart to God. Prompted to venture from the only home he knows, he proceeds to travel the distinctive lands of Britain and to connect with its diverse people. To his surprise, he is blessed with extraordinary long life, and for hundreds of years he thus continues in his service to the Lord. Meanwhile he harbours a peculiar joy, even if he sometimes struggles to maintain his signature fortitude. In this nine-story cycle, Asher meets an adventurous bard girl, a loyal warrior, an exiled princess, a disgraced son, a burdened actor, and a solitary thief.
