shape as you googled, and now here I stand: an elemental of pure wish fulfillment.”

  “Really,” said Jeanne. She looked him over, in all his two-headed muscular codpiece-clad glory.

  “Right,” she said. “You've convinced me. Let's go.”

  “No,” said Jeanne. “I was being facetious.”

  Closing Words

  ...And that's it, I'm afraid. I did warn you that these stories would be fleeting.

  If you've enjoyed this collection, you may also enjoy G. Deyke's other works: particularly Borrowed Strength (which is more or less the same thing, just a year earlier) or Fire and Silver (which collects G. Deyke's best work from the time before Borrowed Strength). If novels are more your cup of culturally-appropriate beverage, you might like Melianarrheyal or Sahta, First Child; and if you prefer your fiction a little more interactive, I particularly recommend Winter.

  If you happen to know a friend, family member, loose acquaintance, total stranger, or hungry ichthyosaur who would enjoy Ephemeron: please, feel free to share. And if you are a hungry ichthyosaur, please consider leaving a review somewhere: I'm afraid I couldn't get hold of any Jurassic sea creatures for focus testing, so your feedback would be invaluable for both myself and the world at large. I'm sure any plesiosaurs who happen upon the book would love to know what you thought.

  And in any case, as always: thank you for reading.
