The Mystery of the Immortals
In the Reg Rawlins, Psychic Investigator paranormal cozy mystery series, Harrison and Weston are the sort of immortals who make you feel like the world is a game only they understand. They don’t see time in a straight line like we do; to them, “before” and “after” are pretty much the same thing. They treat our reality like a giant playground—or maybe an anthill they like to poke with a stick just to see us scurry.
What exactly are they?
They use the word “Immortal” because it’s the best fit for our language, but they’ll tell you it’s inadequate to describe what they really are. They aren’t all-knowing gods—they have favorites, they make mistakes, and they can be incredibly petty. Think less Sunday School and more Greek Mythology, complete with family feuds that have lasted for thousands of years.
Meet Uncle Harrison: The Fashion Icon
Harrison is Reg’s self-appointed godfather who has been popping in and out of her life since she was a wee thing. He has a… unique sense of style. You might find him in black-and-white striped tights, a yellow shirt, and a black vest covered in jewels. Or maybe a tuxedo with a pink feather boa.
He has two main loves: chocolate cake and Starlight. He treats Starlight like an old friend from a past life, which is just one of the many things he won’t fully explain to Reg.
Weston: The Lumberjack Dad
Then there’s Weston. He looks like a rugged lumberjack from a TV ad, but he’s actually Reg’s biological father. He spent years “constrained” in another dimension to hide from his rival, an immortal named Samyr Destine (better known as the Witch Doctor).
Weston is a bit more blunt than Harrison and finds human inventions—like toothpaste commercials—absolutely fascinating. He doesn’t really do parenting, but he’s always around when there’s a cosmic imbalance or a treasure to be found.
Why are they so confusing?
The Immortals live by their own Rules of the Game. They aren’t allowed to kill each other, so they use humans to fight their battles for them. They can make matter appear out of thin air—which is why Reg’s fridge is constantly stuffed with pizza, ribs, and ice cream she didn’t buy.
In The Hidden Hoard of Drakuntsee, they are part guide, part menace, and part puzzle. They talk like they know exactly where the story is going, but they never explain themselves in a straight line. That is very on-brand for them.
The Bottom Line
They can be funny, cryptic, and infuriating in the same conversation. But that is part of the fun. The immortals keep the stakes playful while also reminding us that Reg is not operating in an ordinary world. Somebody is always moving pieces behind the curtain.
