Eagled-eyed visitors to the Undelund Tales website may have already
spotted the ‘Story Teasers’ section where each day a crop of short videos
(hosted on YouTube to reduce latency) give insight into some of the characters featured in

I may incorporate additional characters and stories in the

Although it should be self-evident; the characters, places, people, magic, and monsters portrayed in the videos are entirely fictitious...
The teasers will be visible on the website until the end of August 2026.
