I promised to answer any question you asked, and this week I'm tackling Drexley. Let’s start with the basics in case you are new to the series or simply can’t recall all the details. Drexley is a sentinel who is missing. His leader, Lich Sentinel Alaric Daray discovered reams of papers in his office at the now destroyed sentinel compound. With the help of a few of his brethren, they went through each sheet one by one.
Among the information found were lists of all the men under Alaric’s care. When they compared the older ones to the new they realized there were several men who disappeared from later pages. All of those sentinels were tracked down with the exception of Drexley. At that time, the Sentinel Brotherhood was still beholden to their creators, the Order of Necromancia. Once Alaric’s memory was restored (the compound drained all sentinels) he remembered that when Drexley disappeared five hundred or so years before his necromancer was a man named Adney Blackwell.
Arch Lich Chander Daray—Alaric’s mate—was able to tell them that Adney Blackwell was a necromancer who owned a home called Blackwell House. Around the time Drexley went missing, Adney Blackwell reportedly committed suicide after the death of his son. The body was burned in a traditional funeral pyre before anyone could confirm that he did take his life. Adney left his home to his housekeeper, an elf who had to fight the necromancers to keep her home.
A few years have now passed in the series since the mystery of Drexley started. The Sentinel Brotherhood now have jurisdiction over the lands of the rival Consilium Veneficus which is where Blackwell House still stands today. Though the sentinels have scoured not only the area but the entire continent they've found no trace of Drexley. As elite assassins, they are never going to give up the cause to find one of their own, but Alaric and the others aren’t really sure where else to look.
So, what’s the story? Well, I can’t give you as much information as I’m sure you’d like. I do know where Drexley is. I can tell you he’s had a decent life. He has no idea anyone is looking for him. I know exactly who his mate is and when the time is right, they are going to meet. In other words, Drexley is very much on the long list of D’Vaire books to come. It’s not much of a spoiler to tell you that the reason the Sentinel Brotherhood can’t find him is because he’s on a tiny magical realm. Drexley’s not by himself, but I won’t deny that he gets lonely sometimes. His experiences outside of the sentinel compound have been quite unique and I’m looking forward to getting the chance to tell his tale, but we’ve got some terrific books to get through before his time comes.
Speaking of the series, on Saturday Oct. 27 you finally get to see the cover for the next one in the series, Irresistible Indigo and I can’t wait for you to get your hands on Idris and Mac’s story on November 15th!
