Default Return to Tyria Entry - The Bears Albescent

In celebration of a return to the verdant lands of Tyria that so inspired me to run with Guild Wars all these years, I offer up this story from a time just before the Searing.

I've spent a goodly time with this story, and it is now ready for reading.

The Bears Albescent

I only needed to read a few pages to decide that you're a very good writer

I have to agree with Canadian. I can't believe that this story was here so long before I managed to read it. Excellent presentation too - the pictures really brought it to life! Very well done!

Thanks - did a bit of photoshop type stuff to give it a mythic quality. I hope you enjoy the whole story!

Up to page 23 and chapter (?) 2.

Absolutely incredible work I'm going to sleep now, but hopefully I can find time tomorrow to finish reading it.

You have some real skill and an awesome mastery of the english language, which you put to good use here.

10/10 ^^

I appreciate that. English is actually not my native language - you don't want me to speak it! I have to sometimes practice just regular conversations or it all goes south. Odd right?

Just page 23? Ooh, you got many more to go. And all kinds of moral selfishness and anti-heroics abound all the rest of the way!

Just bumping my story, being shameless and all. Since GWEN has snowy peaks and my story has snowy peaks and GWEN has a raging forest fire and my story has a raging forest fire, I suppose I might make those generalizations work as a rationale too.

Your story also has some kick-ass bears.

In GW:EN, we chase down a kick-ass bear O_O

Co-incidence? I think NOT!

Well, of course I had no idea bears would be so important to the GWEN expansion since I wrote this over a year ago. Nor could ANET have known my cunning storyline, so its synergy.
