Meet Nina Thumpings! Daughter to Taylor Renee Wolford and Liam McHowl (by blood). Also daughter through adoption by Jake Thumpings, Taylor's husband, where both mom and daughter ultimately took their last names from. I can't really spoil too much about her, but she will be the central focal point of a follow-on series that happens after Legend of Ahya. That in itself is a bit of a spoiler since we know she's got some plot immunity now.

However, after collaborating with Lucario389 (creator of Jake Thumpings), I feel we have an insanely solid foundation to build a 3-book trilogy revolving around 'what happens after' the major events in Legend of Ahya. Outside of a small one-off book involving Murana in a distant past story set in Zabokar, this is the only other strong story concept I've come up with - so I'm rolling with it! She's smart, intelligent, even if a bit spoiled by her new life position. She's good with rapiers and sword fighting (something Lucario389 wanted to add since he's a pro), and has a bit of a rebellious streak to her like her mom.

Hopefully when the time comes to write this story, I hope everyone takes to her. She's already found a spot in my heart.
