[Kesh]

Damn.

Okay, now I have to go back and read all the previous entries.

Crazy stuff, Doc.

Crazy stuff...

How horrible. Now I actually feel a little sorry for that fool Jamison. Where was Vek when the Spellforge's made their way to kill Accessiwal? At least let us know what he was doing since he didn't show up for the fight.

I can't wait to see how this turns out. This is a real cliffhanger. Excellent judgement on where to end each write up.

While I wasn't soley fighting for you Doc--I hope you don't mind by the way--was that good? If not I can take another go at it. Some are just resistant to my charms though and I may not be able to convert all.

Anyway, I would just like to note the fact that you like to include little things that your readers mention in the posts. And not just Metus and Tsunami. Vek's comment about who would win in a fight between himself and Dartan combined a few slightly more discreet lines about Jam'son's foolish touching of things and huge feeling of guilt over what he had done. We even saw a broom-weilding skeleton in there (though whether having it there was Vek's idea or not is unknown).

You know what your readers are thinking and not only justify it but include their thoughts in the story. Aside from making the story itself more personal it allows us to feel that we're valued by the author. Notice how even Celtavian is feeling a little sorry for Jamison. Now that's talent.

One thing though. Why weren't they warded against cold? Or was it not enough?

Kyla didn't notify me. Blast her! Curse Pelor's flock!

From different parts of THE PASSING OF YEARS:
---------------------
Katya hugged her sister and said “Dartan never came?”

Kyla shook her head. “We sent the letter, but… I suppose he’s not going to come.”

“Did you send a letter to Vek?” Her sister’s guilty look told Katya that she hadn’t. Not that Katya could truly blame her… Vek Mormont unnerved everyone, and her sister was a devout worshiper of Pelor. Vek’s transformation to… whatever he was… had been hard on Kyla. She wasn’t equipped to deal with undead party members. “It’s no matter,” Kat said. “We’ve been training. We’re much better off than we were when we first faced him.”
----------------------
“Dead,” Vek repeated without changing his amused tone. “How?”

“He went off to fight the white wyrm of the North and never returned.”

This time his tone did change, to alarm. “They went to fight Acessiwal?! Why didn’t they contact me?”

“Uh… I believe my aunt Kyla sent invitations to other heroes they’d known from around the Flanaess.”

Vek understood. He whispered low, in a very cold voice. “Kyla. Too proud to stand side by side and fight with me, if she could help it. A curse on Pelor and his flock.”
----------------------

One thing though. Why weren't they warded against cold? Or was it not enough?

I think they had some protective measures up, and it wasn't enough.

We even saw a broom-weilding skeleton in there (though whether having it there was Vek's idea or not is unknown).

It's Vek's idea... The skeleton was a Doomdreamer... now he's just comic relief. That's justice.

Anyway, I would just like to note the fact that you like to include little things that your readers mention in the posts.

Hey, thanks for noticing. I do try to put things like that in whenever I can. I'm always trying to gauge by the readers' reactions the job that I'm doing, and I use it to make adjustments when I need to (like throwing a little more sympathy bait in for Jamison, etc...). Plus, I LURVES my readers, and try to reward them.

Even if they pump Sepulchrave's story hour like dirty little thievesssss. Bastards! Maaaan, I have to read that story some day... he just trounces me and everyone else in the opinion polls.

Sorry, Doc. I was out of touch on the holidays for a while. First time I was able to get my super-extended family together for any length of time, so I took advantage of it.

Wow! That last post really closed up some loose ends that were left out there. What was the medallion?
