[QUOTE="BSF, post: 1323224, member: 13098"] Sialia! I have waited and agonized for a week to see what you would come up with. I have beraded myself for not providing enough of a challenge to your entry. I finally arrive home from work to a modest email from EN World, telling me that you have completed your story and have posted it to be compared against Cedric's. I try to logon and EN World is down for repairs so I sit back and wait. I contemplate some of my game logs and stories I am writing. Finally, I am able to get into EN World, open the thread, seek out your post, and this, this is what I get! [i]If you have not yet read Sialia's post, ignore this message. Read the story! If you have this as a subscription notification, click the link for the thread, scroll up and read the story. Don't mind this litte note thrown into the midst of this excellent competition. Shoo! This is nothing but stray electrons. Go read THE STORY, that is what is important.[/i] [spoiler] I am ... distraught ... at the pathos. I am not sure what to think. I was engrossed in the story. My mind was racing ahead to contemplate where it was going. (Oddly enough, I was pretty close to guessing the outcome. I think that scares me because I am not sure it was that heavily telegraphed.) I am repulsed at the imagery and horrified by the very thought of it all. I want more, I need more.

I even feel the need to place spoiler tags around the previous paragraph. Not because I really give away the story, but because the story should be savored as I was able to savor it, without undue comment from the peanut gallery. [/QUOTE]
