    The Wari Empire emerged as one of the most influential pre-Incan civilizations in the Andean region, setting the foundation for future Andean states, including the Inca. Its origins can be traced back to the highlands of present-day Peru, where early societies laid the groundwork for its rise. The unique combination of environmental adaptation, cultural influences, and political innovation allowed the Wari to establish a powerful state that would dominate much of the central Andes for centuries. 
Before the Wari civilization took shape, the Andean region was home to various cultures that contributed to its development. Among these, the Chavín culture, which thrived from around 900 to 200 BCE, played a crucial role in spreading religious and artistic traditions that later influenced Wari art and iconography. The Nazca civilization, known for its intricate geoglyphs and advanced irrigation techniques, also left an imprint on Wari agricultural and engineering practices. However, it was the lesser-known Huarpa culture of the Ayacucho Valley that provided the most direct influence on early Wari society. The Huarpa people developed small-scale irrigation systems, terraced farming, and distinct ceramic styles, all of which became defining features of Wari civilization. 
Sometime between 500 and 600 CE, the Wari began to expand beyond their heartland in the Ayacucho region. This expansion was driven by both environmental necessity and strategic ambition. The high-altitude valleys of the central Andes provided fertile land for agriculture, but they were also subject to fluctuating climatic conditions. To mitigate these challenges, Wari elites developed large-scale irrigation systems and storage facilities, ensuring food security for growing populations. This ability to manage resources effectively gave them an advantage over neighboring groups, allowing them to assert dominance through both diplomacy and military conquest.

In Pittsburgh, the elevation varies wildly, fluctuating 660 feet from highest to lowest points throughout the area and making it one of the hilliest cities in the United States. Throughout this unruly and physically challenging landscape, the city's first mass transportation system was built—a steadily expanding network of public stairways, locally referred to as city steps, these flights of stairs are a throwback to a very different time in history and a very different Pittsburgh.

    After the fairy tale of Happily Ever After ends in heartbreak, what then? From multi-award-winning author River Faire comes an inspiring account of second chances, healing, inexplicable magic, and following the soul's compass. 
River, an alternative healer and Paris-trained chef--a decidedly reluctant mystic-returns to England from America to help his ex-partner, back from the brink of death. Stepping into a London life he left behind, haunted by ghosts, he finds himself on an unanticipated journey of the heart. When the two men relocate to the English countryside, he discovers more than a charming pastoral landscape, he unexpectedly glimpses the fabric of life itself. 
With disarming honesty and a searching, lyrical voice, WHERE TWO WORLDS TOUCH is a transcendent narrative about navigating the intricacies of the human heart, no matter whom we love. An invitation to say yes to uncertainty and vulnerability, to trust the unknowable mystery, while seeking the place we belong and what is uniquely ours to bring. A genre-defying memoir-one part love story, one part celebration of the table, one part ode to nature, and one part soul guide woven as an indelible offering that lingers long past the final page.
