Act two of the original three is done. It is about 100 pages and 23k words. I'll be merging the first two acts into one and the book will end up being about twice as long as originally projected.

Act 1 of 3 is done. It’s about 100 pages and 23k words and has a prelude, 8 chapters, and an interlude. I’m looking at 100k words as an approximate goal.

Bio

Thrawn: "I have read about the nightswan. Have you?"

Nightswan: "You refer to the fact that it sings only as night is falling?"

Thrawn: "Yes. You do not expect your stand to succeed, do you?"

Nightswan: "I know that it won't succeed."

Thrawn: "That does not necessarily mean the end. I can give orders for you to be taken unharmed."

Nightswan: "They will be ignored. Half the troops here are Batonn Defense and Restos is determined to get rid of me."

Thrawn: "Then come with me now!"

Nightswan: "A man must do what he must, Admiral Thrawn. Even if his stand is against the fall of eternal night."

@Melkor i only see one EDIT: so i am to add this to announce the fact that i have edited something


People usually do that, it gets the attention of readers so we know there's something else now.
There are two double posts, from you, on this page.
@Billsomething Seriously, you've gotta stop double posting.

EDIT: Edit things you didn't say the first time in, like this.
I've posted. @Billsomething You didn't have to double post for that.
Since Melvus had left the mountain and made headway toward the Apothecary shop, the sun had already set on the world, rendering total darkness. Only the occasional torchlit area of the road was visible. An incredible amount of crickets were audible.

In front of the horse there was a glowing arm, Melvus had thought to use his Arm of the Heavens as a light-source. His horse's hooves clopped along as they made their way. Hm... I remember why I began using heaven-based magic...

Fourteen years ago Melvus was seventeen. It was during this age that his entire family and village had mysteriously disappeared. After a short while, he found work with the faction Aesil in the nearby city, Drisbane. They had experienced a civil war and with the royal family dead, save one little girl - Princess Efrida - the city was in chaos.

The four factions, Goetia, The Guardians, Palace and Aesil had been vying for power. They had agreed that skirmishes were too dangerous with the citizens. They held one on one or two on two battles instead, battles between champions of each faction.

Melvus had joined the Aesil, also known as the descendants of the Angels. Melvus didn't care much for it, but he did use it as a time to learn. During this time he learned three specific spells from an older wizard within the Aesil faction. These spells were Heaven's Wheel, Arm of the Heavens, and Rain of Light. They were all appropriately themed. He'd also learned a few spells on his own, Ethereal Wings was learned from a book. He vividly remembered all of the times he'd fallen and broken something before he could control his flight. He also learned Deflection from a book.

Melvus noticed that the sun had broken the darkness as it rose over the horizon. It's majestic rays, tearing through the, once overwhelming, darkness of night. The sound of crickets died down and his shining arm dissipated. He could see the town. It didn't have walls and the only notable building from this view was the church, its spire seemed to scrape the Heavens. It wasn't really quite that tall.

It didn't take long for Melvus to find the shop the poster had mentioned. He turned the doorknob and as he pushed the wooden door in, he noticed a door chime. Inside were many people, they had lists in their hand and an older woman had been talking, she looked like a nun. "I'm not too late for this am I?" His voice was as whispery as ever as he held up the poster he'd seen in the church.
@Afina Do you mind if I throw another post up soon so I can get Melvus into the shop?
<Snipped quote by Afina>

The above was added before posting got heavy yesterday as well as other rules - Check rules daily to make sure nothing has changed. I see some missed the do NOT see monsters part. I will let it slide this once.

As far as the posts go - Yes I said that but some are missing the one before it where I state once you enter the shop do not post again until you have been addressed - READ ALL OOC POSTS YOU MISS

<Snipped quote by Afina>

Again, I will let it slide this time but please do double check and when in doubt pm me and hold post until I answer. ^_^ Don't worry - This is O'hana - O'hana means family and family means no one gets left behind. ^_^


Sorry about that. I shouldn't edit it?
<Snipped quote by Afina>

Here's the post you were looking for, WitS.
@Warrior in the Shadows


I'm not crazy! Thank you.
@Warrior in the Shadows Hm... Maybe I read it in another RP and just equated it to her?

Edit: Oh well XD I won't be doing that again anyway, unless it's to get the story along I guess.
Make sure you're not posting more than once during the rotation.@Melkor it's alright, we are not going to hold that against you. Just make sure you don't make a habit of it.


I was going with what the GM said, to allow at least two posts before your post again. Though I generally like to let everyone post before I make my second one, that was more like a 'part 2' so my character can meet up with the group during my next post.
