The stories of Tarnus make up a weave of pathways. You can take different kinds of paths through the stories, scene by scene. You can start at the beginning of any path, or you can start at the end. Some of the stories are called “Threads”, which means that they are deliberately set in order scene by scene regardless of the time and setting of the scenes. Those are the main lines for you to follow. But you don’t have to do that.
Some of the stories are called “Traces”, and they follow a character forward or backward in story time. Some traces are “Viewpoint” traces, in which the scenes are viewed through one character’s eyes. Other traces are called “Presence” traces, in which the scenes appear because a particular character is present in all of them. These traces give you only a character-based set of clues to what is going on. You get to play with everything else.
Here’s a list of the links to the tables of threads, viewpoint traces, and presence traces. Select the one you’d like to see, and go from there.

Here’s a list of the links to the tables of starting points for every significant character in every story thread. Select the one you’d like to see, and then – go get lost.
