Character Interviews: The Gatekeeper
I had the pleasure of interviewingthe Gatekeeper just before the release of The Deliverers Book 3, The GoldenDragon of Ang. It really was a most enlightening experience, and I hope youwill agree.
Greg: Thanks for taking some time to sit and chatwith us.
Gatekeeper: Well, thank you my boy, it's wonderful to behere, but I really can't sit long–too much to do.
Greg: Yep, I get that. Firstoff, we'd really love a little bit of information about the third book in theDeliverers Series. I’ve only had bits and pieces of information about theAssignment, and it sounds pretty mysterious. Can you clear things up a littlebit, give us the inside scoop?
Gatekeeper: Hmmm, it is allrather mysterious, I have to admit. You see, this whole situation hit me out ofthe blue.
Greg: Out of the blue? I can'tbuy that, you always know what's going on. But I think we're getting a littlebit ahead of ourselves. What is goingon?
Gatekeeper: It's a littlecomplicated. I explained the little I knew at the time to Eric before theAssignment began. I told him about the nature of the sparkling mist and that heshould be on the lookout for it.
Greg: Yes, so I gathered, butwhat I want to know is, what's it all about?
Gatekeeper: To be honest, I'mreally not sure. Something bad is happening that could affect the entireuniverse. Someone or something is using the sparkling mist to disrupt things onother worlds.
Greg: What do you mean bydisrupt?
Gatekeeper: Undermine thestability of worlds. If one world goes, it could set forces in motion that willtopple every other world like dominos. I haven't shared this fear with anyoneyet, so please keep it under your hat. This is quite a serious problem.
Greg: So how are you going to tackleit?
Gatekeeper: The Deliverers areone of the teams I'm using to combat the situation. In the short time they'vebeen together, they've had quite a bit of success. They each bring theirindividual talents to the team and they all work very well together. I'm glad Idecided to team them up.
Greg: I have to say it was anexcellent choice. What does the future hold for them?
GateKeeper: Well, I reallydon't know, but it appears things are coming to a head. If they are able tocontain the situation in the Dragon Islands, then perhaps we can begin toattack the root of the problem if we can just pin it down.
Greg: I hope that you all meet with success. After all, if the universeis in trouble it's bad news for us as well.
Gatekeeper: Well now, I suppose you're right. Ah well, don't worry. I'm sure Ericand the others will win out in the end. All they'll need iscourage, perseverance, teamwork and a bit of luck. Now, I really mustdash, there is so much that has to be done. It was really great talking withyou. We really must do this again soon.
Greg: That would be great.Good luck with everything!
