Cataclysm: Mischief's Journey Part 1

What do you do when you've broken the world?

Mischief is the Trickster, the godling of chaos: she's Loki, Hermes, Satan, Raven, Anansi, all in one…born to stir the pot, disturb the complacent, light the fires of change.

But Mischief gets a bit lazy, lets things slide, and the shine comes off the world; a dull sameness sets in, the very condition she was created to prevent. Called to account for her failure, she presents a plan to fix the results of her backsliding.

Of course, she's the Trickster; did she ignore her duties by accident, or on purpose? Only Mischief knows. But she's given permission to go ahead and reintroduce a little chaos to the world. Except she manages to release a lot of chaos. A whole lot.

The heavenly court thought the world was out of balance before; now it's shattered. Mischief is told to fix it, again; failure this time means both the world, and herself, will be torn down and replaced.

Has the Trickster tricked herself into oblivion?

This book contains the first three episodes from Mischief's Journey — The Fool, The Magician, and The High Priestess — covering the beginning of the saga of why and how Mischief ruined the world, then began to rebuild it. You can continue to Book 2, Genesis, or simply go to the complete volume, The Skin of the World: Mischief's Journey, if you want to get all the stories in one place.
