All in good time... ;) Thanks! It'll be a little while before I post a new entry, as my computer is in a cardboard box right now. Come start of October though, I'll be back for sure. Meantime, please spread the word!

Dawn sometimes has a way of soothingly and gently nudging you out of your slumber. This was not one of those times. It could not be one of those times, because I had barely slept. A week had passed since Rabishu and his followers—including my sister and nieces and nephews—had left us to make...

9,038 words, actually... but hey, who's counting? :p And as for the screenshots, I can surely shrink them, but I play the game at the maximum resolution so I'm just concerned that the text may be impossible to read if I make the images too small. Still, I can give it a try. The first...

Ditto; if it has the kind of quality we've gotten used to, it'll be a hell of a read! :D

I'm glad you're not just doing this in PMs, as it's interesting to see. Play on! :)

SPAM ALERT! Hate to be a bother, but if you're into game stories, I've started one that I think will be quite good, if I may say so. Enjoy Blue Skies Over Bad Lands; it's a beautiful day to build a civilization... :D

This made me chuckle. :D

I paused at the entrance to Ninurta’s tent. I’d no idea why he had sent for me. Our chief was something of a recluse, a very religious man of few words who sometimes prayed for hours a day, asking the deities for counsel about the movement of the herds, future weather, the health of his people –...

For easy differentiation between my out-of-story posts (like this one) and my in-story ones.

Sorry, but this is the only Lions logo that matters. :cool: Aw yeah!

Yeah, I gotta go with land as well. Within reason, of course.

Any new developments?

You've got to remember that it's August, and most people are pretty busy preparing for school and/or cramming as much summer fun as they can into these last couple of weeks. (I myself am preparing to move to another city.) But I'm liking this so far, even if I don't have a clue where that name...
