Ah, weekend at last. I thought I had an idea of what to expect of being a university student after my brief time studying to become a teacher last year, but woah, [I]this[/i] university is a different beast altogether. Not only is it bigger - around ten times as big, I'd say... shit, I'm pretty sure that just the university itself is between three and six times the size of my entire hometown, with a population that I know for a fact is nearly a hundred times as big, with them having over ten thousand people studying there - but the expectations they have as to what you can achieve in a certain amount of time are much, much higher. It's quite daunting, really, but hopefully it'll be all right. I survived the first week, so I'd say chances are good that I'll make it through the second one too.
So yeah, sorry about being so brief in my last post here, but I was genuinely exhausted.

Hmm... are this Ajanok and Claw two different Malkor'Kurz? My initial thought was that you had merely decided to rename the character, but then Claw was mentioned as well, so I grew uncertain as to which was actually the case. Anyways, it seems fine thus far; I actually chuckled a little of the Malkor'Kurz alternate title for Echoers. "Users of the Rawr"... heh. For some reason that seems very funny to me.
