Heh. There's something I wasn't expecting to see - people wanting it to be longer. I was making a conscious effort to keep things brief and quickly moving forward, as I used to get criticized for writing 'too much' back when I used to do creative endeavours for OGaming. In the most extreme case of that, I ended up making a 'guest appearance' in a webcomic .. being violently throttled because of it. Things like this tend to leave me with the impression that I should do only what is necessary to get the point across. But if there's an interest in things being fleshed out a little more, then certainly, i'll see what I can do for the next go around.

Great read. Thanks a lot for sharing this essay. I'm really looking forward to reading part 2. My favorite piece is unarguably the pyromaniac Gwen.

I guess you can just use the experiances that you/guildmates/friends/others have in GW adding those spectacular twists that you do so well.You could like make up a story based on the missions/quests/wars.

BtW do you have any other stories?And if so where would I find them?

I seem to be stuck in the role of pedant! Spellcheck! Burn your Thesaurus! Sometimes you seemed to get into the position of using words just because you knew them, which strikes me annoyingly when I read it. (do eludicate how one eludicates 'upon')

(Plus 'fall' is the Worst Way Of Saying Autumn, Ever.)

Otherwise, well done!

Write more!

I might share why I, and maybe others would like it to be longer. We are in the midst of not being able to play the game. So any GW entertainment is wanted to keep me/us entertained until the next BWE.

I would like longer stories even after release, simply because I can read them on my work breaks and I can't be playing

The story was great.

I will keep it short and sweet. I want more. I have not laughed so much in a long time - in fact since hearing new guild mates discussing what they wanted to do to a certain Prince after chasing him for the first time last Beta....

For this story I'll put you on my friendslist. BFF !

I really like your style. Your way of seeing things reminds me at "Hitchhikers guide to galaxy" or discworld.

(these comicstrips are great and maybe even a bit more bizzare than tfts. Have fun)

Spooky,

The story was really good....please continue it!

I loved everything about Gwen, making her a valley girl was inspired!
