The stories below are listed in the order in which they take place in the Metaverse timeline, which does not necessarily reflect when the story was written. Because each story is really sort of a chapter in a continuing saga, the stories will make more sense if they are read in order from first to last. (Note: some of the stories do not have a specified date, so their placement in the timeline is an estimation.)
