A Kingdom of Ashes (Zombies! Pirates! Giant Lizards! Intrigue!) UPDATED 07/01/05!!

[threshel]

I was so excited at the prospect of an update, that I reread the whole thing. Well, excitement, and the fact that it has been a while...

Great stuff, The Universe! You've introduced each character so well that nearly anything could have happened and I would've been at rapt attention. As it is, you've given us "PIRATES!" and the undead. Had this zombie been just a moving corpse, the plot events would've had much less impact, but you personalized Jeranna, and that made every difference.

Ok, enough with the sucking up. More story!

Hey,

We really appreciate your support... the more readers the better... I'm sure it makes the author feel fabulous to hear the props... but, as a player, it makes me feel really good, too.

... and, I really the plug in your sig-- and not just because I play Justice!

The Universe is doing an incredible job... now get to work on the next update!!!

Additionally, once we get a little further into the story, I will link everyone to Justice's Journals... if there is interest in such a thing...

Less impact on you, maybe, you weren't carrying the moving corpse.

We had no idea the background. I was just being a good samaritan. For all the good it did me...damn zombie...

Just for the record....

I loathe the undead.

Seconded.

Only I don't have mad undead whomping powers, like you do.

Nope, gotta do it the ol' fashioned way, with fists and stomping.

You can never get the smell out either...

It just keeps getting better... and you make it seem a lot smoother than it actually was!!

Accurate or not, the pacing worked great for this reader! Keep 'em coming. Cause the only thing better than pirates is undead-worshipping-pirates

(and drow-ninja-pirates, but that goes without saying )

and the plot thickens.... hehehehe... can't wait for the next one!

 

[Laurel]

As for the zombie specifically, she may have been a several-rounder (I honestly don't remember) but she can't compare to the several hours of game time you all spent trying to get rid of the dreaded Iron Cobra. That, I assure you, will eventually be recreated in all of its ridiculous glory.

Hey at least it only took us only one game session to get rid of it. Some were starting to think it was going to go into another day! I am sure you will represent it perfectly and eloquently in all it's glory

The bard was evil!!! She knew them!!!! Too many shocks and revelations.... but oh what fun twists you weave

 

[Xath]

Heh, because of the story hour, everything happening now in the game makes much more sense. My advice to those not in the campaign: Pay attention to even the most insignifigant character being introduced right now. Not even the smallest NPC escapes the Universe's weaving plot.
