Title: Pearl of Great Price
Author: Kat Solano
Email: orchydd@hotmail.com
Rating: PG-13
Keywords: Action, Clan Denial admirer
Characters: DM, M, J, RR, lots of OFC's to be explained below
Summary: Duncan MacLeod has lost his soulmate, his son and more friends than
he cares to count. He doesn't want anything to do with the Game, with
anything to do with his old life and so he returns to Seacouver to close
that chapter of his Chronicle. But trouble/adventure always finds the people
of the Clan MacLeod.

Okay, for the curious, this story is going to get a lot more involved later
on. My corner of reality is a multiverse, which means that there are
parallel dimensions. Lots of 'em. So just to help everyone who don't follow
convoluted thinking as well as I do (it takes lots of practice so hand in
there! I believe in you!), here's a short explaination.

The entire Underground series comes in 3 parts from 3 points of view: X-Men,
Gargoyles, and Highlander: the Series. Not everyone is a fan of all three of
these so each line of reality can be read separately without losing much. If
you want all the bitty details, you can go to my homepage and read 'em all.

The Underground is an organization in charge of the galaxy we call the Milky
Way. They are based in a place called the Aerie; people who live there are
also called Aerenokt. Their main duties are to keep the time lines
relatively straight (as in keep the paradoxes from happening) and keeping
the Balance (don't ask, it's complicated and will be explained later on in
the story).

The Sovereigns that are ruling now are humans: The Emperor (Lucas/Darcfyr) &
Empress (Kay/Stiletto) & the Triplets (Joyce/Yntenz, Jean[pronounced
Zhan]/Jetblayd, Remy[from X-Men]/Hazzardd). The Xeno Core is one of 3 Core
Warriors, the elite & most trusted of the Underground.

Everyone in the Aerie use several code names because
   (1) it's a comic book convention
   (2) it protects their true identity from the poeple in the black hats
   (3) names = power; therefore the more names you use, the harder it is to
figure out your True Name and do all sorts of Bad Things to you and yours.
because of that, poeple who have a lot of power in the Underground tend to
have lots of names.
The codenames will be evident as the story progresses but just in case you
get confused, here's a list.
WARNING: this list will have SPOILERS for this story.
   Jetblayd: Manic; Terken Cnight Zwaard; Joaquin Rayne Demi; Beauregard
Jean Tyrante-DeMi; Albuc'ier
   Ffayzz: Wave; Leialoha Ebenezer, Mikala Bennec
   Rydr: Noel MacLeod, Contact, Jack Terrin, Richard Ryan
   Stiletto: Blade; Syssion; La Lunetica de Noche; Kaytylyn Phoenix Turner;
Tuk'ton
   Darcfyr: Wildfire; L'Ombre ab Soleil; Lucas Beauregard Demi; Wildfire;
Claidbre

And finally, some punctuation that I use:
::Speech between double colons are thoughts or telepathic::
:~:Words between these are telepathic speech on a wavelength accessable only
to the Sovereigns:~:
<Words between arrows is Underground Speech>

This is my first Highlander fic though the Universe has gone on for quite
some time in X-Men and Gargoyles. Hopefully, this'll integrate well. Oodles
of thanks to Jen, my beta-reader, for bearing with strange punctuation and
even stranger spelling.

Disclaimer: Disclaimer: Duncan MacLeod, Richie Ryan, Joe Dawson, Methos,
Connor MacLeod, and the various other mortals & immortals recognizable do
not belong to me; they belong to Panzer/Davis and Rysher. I am a great
admirer of Clan Denial so Season 6 and all that blatherskite never happened.
On the chance that I may mention them, the Gargoyles belong to Disney &
Buena Vista TV and the X-Men belong to Marvel Entertainment. The few people
that DO belong to me are Jean, Joyce, Kay, Luc, Rowan & everyone in the
Underground. Phew... if anything I resisted starting this line just ‘cause
of the disclaimer
