The Rape of Morne - Part 2 (Updated 2/26)

[Jeremy]

As for Mostin's gift, as the tablet is old and crumbling, I'd agree with the theory that it is the same epic spell Jovol/Fillein used long ago to bind Graz'zt he must have forseen a possible use for it if Eadric et al decide that Graz'zt does need his hand slapped for his naughtiness.

Let the de-naughtification begin!

To use the favourite phrase of Sep fans since this started...

WOW.

And thank you.

 

[Eridanis]

Yikes. What an abrupt ending. However, you took the time to grasp the nettle and give the story some closure, rather than leave it hanging for eternity, and for that I thank you.

I'll look forward to the next thread! And I don't envy your task of turning a string of short stories into a novel. But I know it will be worth it.

 

[Kestrel]

I have to agree with Tallarn.

Wow. Simply wow.

Its very few times that I get chills and watery eyes from reading great passages. This story hour has had quite a few. I can't wait to read the next installment.

Wow.


Thanks for sharing this great story with us Sepulchrave.

Well if this is all to be collected as one "book" I would definitely vote for "Lady Despina's Virtue" it was what got this whole ball rolling and is one of my favorite titles of all time. Quite aside from the obvious implications, there is something subtle, suggestive and witty about it, that I've never quite been able to put my finger on.

You know, I read a lot of books.

I've spent (literally) hundreds of dollars on novels, hardbacks, and other forms of literature throughout my relatively short life.

And this is, quite literally, the best thing I have ever read.

Is there any address where we can just send you money to help while you're trying to get this published? I feel like I'm ripping you off by reading it for free.

That ending is incredible.

Oh, and I'd like to vote for "Lady Despina's Virtue" as well.

Ditto.

Long time lurker here. This has been a great story SEP. Please keep up the great work and let us all know when you publish.

Remind me who Fillein is again?

 

[Cheiromancer]

The Binding of Graz’zt – an act accomplished by the Wizard Fillein and his cabal - over three hundred years previously, and a seminal example of cooperative magic. The Great Mage had drawn on the abilities of six other spellcasters of significant power.

Graz’zt was chained for fifty-five years. When he finally gained his freedom, he was irked to find that all but one of his former captors had already died.

Fillein himself had disappeared, and was never found.

It's from the Rape of Morne (link below)
