Description:

When Duncan MacLeod takes a Dark Quickening, his student Richie Ryan heads out of town quickly to warn Duncan's sometime lover of the danger to her life. He becomes involved with Amanda and her student Michelle in a plot to steal a dangerous artifact from an unhinged Immortal. The results of their work affect all three lives in unforeseen ways.

Notes:

This series is an AU to Lovers and Other Strangers -- it moves sideways from the slightly more conventional world of that series at the time of Duncan's Dark Quickening. In terms of chronology, it takes place in the gap between Blues for a Summer Night and Love on the Line, and was originally intended as the start of an entirely different and larger adventure series, rather than the two stories that remain.

"Upon this Rock I shall build my church [community], and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." -- Jesus

The Rock itself exists only in my imagination, based on several photos of a geological formations in the Northwest that suggested to me the possibility of a hidden fortress.
