Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion thread (2/18/2013 21:47:37)

Ok just to make this thread noticeable again I made this post, I couldn't make the next chapter because I go delayed AGAIN, but I promise you that I will have the next chapter up within this week!

I never really imagined this story to be so difficult to put out on the forums...I have it written down in a few notebooks, but there are certain things I have to leave out, or certain things that just don't work with the forum writing style, I've had the story for AGES and still think of alterations everyday, it's just rather difficult to include them all :/

@DD Thanks for pointing out those typos, I'll get working on them right away. And the prison is so close to meeting up with the rest of the story, trust me.



Glais -> RE: "And The Darkness Rained Upon Them..." Discussion Thread (3/11/2013 7:55:10)

Not a bad chapter.
I think they might benefit from being a tad bit longer though.
Since they basically link up with a segment a chapter or two later anyways, ya know?



Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: "And The Darkness Rained Upon Them..." Discussion Thread (3/11/2013 10:16:15)

@Glais Not a bad idea...I've considered (when I have the time) lengthening everything, linking some chapters, etc. The chapters would come out less often, but they would be longer, and more in detail.



Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion Thread (3/12/2013 22:04:43)

Ok, newest chapter up already, a tad short, but there wasn't much more to add to hit. Let me know of any typos or grammatical errors you find!
Alright....I'm going to be editing that chapter a bit, make it longer, add more detail, etc.

Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion Thread (3/15/2013 11:41:45)

@DD Well considering this is around 300 or so years before Alteon's reign, I rather imagined this being one of the earlier Lord Frydaes, like the 10th, or something. Because the newest generation is 13th, and I get he's older than 300...but this is simply a different generation of his bloodline. I'll start working on those typos now.



Dwelling Dragonlord -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion Thread (3/15/2013 11:47:36)

@Chaosweaver Amon: So Queen Safiria is awake at the present time in your story?



Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion Thread (3/15/2013 15:47:57)

@DD I hadn't really considered it...but I suppose so, yes.



Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion thread (3/20/2013 1:05:31)

New chapter up, and I've decided to abandon the pattern now for chapters, so it will be much more mixed and matched from hereon out.



Dwelling Dragonlord -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion thread (3/20/2013 6:23:19)

Not bad, but I think you could play a bit with the mention of how he wonders if those knights could defend the capital/capitol and then gets beaten by them. Maybe throw in something that they probably wouldn't be so lucky against men with equal equipment.



Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion thread (3/20/2013 12:18:03)

Alright, I was considering lengthening it...I might do that today if I get the chance. Maybe actually have some dialogue between Jack, Achrion, and Dashiell.



Glais -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion thread (4/3/2013 2:23:29)

Catching up...

Combined...sharpness?

Anyhow, the Dashiell chapter was pretty good, though I didn't understand why the King hates Dashiell. It wasn't really touched upon, it's just...there.



Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion thread (4/4/2013 10:20:38)

@Glais Well Dashiell doesn't know why the King hates him either, the King is just an enormous snob, he puts Dashiell below him. Views him as scum.



Glais -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion thread (4/15/2013 0:27:30)

Fair enough I suppose.
Though Dashiell doesn't seem the nicest chap in the world either, so for all we know he could've caused it without knowing, heh.

I'm currently a bit distracted from working on the next chapter, but I'll get to it as soon as my school exams are over.



Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion thread (5/6/2013 0:14:59)

Ok, I've FINALLY after...nearly two MONTHS of distractions, finished the new chapter. I hope you guys enjoy it!

What do you mean to say here?

On another note, it feels as if the sentence is getting stretched out a bit. You might want to consider making "So for .... in silence." a separate sentence.

Pick either "inside his stomach" or "inside him" since it boils down the same thing.

Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: (Pre-DF) The Estari Gateway Discussion Thread (8/24/2013 18:37:44)

New chapter is up, I may lengthen it, depending on how my day ends up tomorrow if I have the time. I hope you enjoy it now though. :)



Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: (Pre-DF) The Estari Gateway Discussion Thread (8/29/2013 13:53:00)

I decided to start adding some music from DF into the chapters guys. Let me know if you like it or not, or if you have any recommendations for music for specific chapters.



Dwelling Dragonlord -> RE: (Pre-DF) The Estari Gateway Discussion Thread (8/29/2013 17:43:58)

@Chaosweaver Amon: I have noticed no flaws in your last chapter as far as grammar and spelling go. The thing that does stand out is the fact that the vampires simply captured Grimlon despite him killing off their kin AND being a werewolf at that. The quest where Zorbak seeks out Safiria's help establishes that vampires and werewolves are less than friendly with each other and would gladly take out members of the other subrace if given the chance. They also seem quite capable of identifying the other subrace.



Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion thread (8/29/2013 18:01:21)

@DD: Alright, thanks for telling me. I'll try to work around that somehow in Grimlon's next chapter.



Chaosweaver Amon -> RE: The Estari Gateway Discussion thread (9/13/2013 23:58:25)
