@Reverend Joe: Thanks. Of course, you're forgetting that I had to win the assaults on Ivernis and Emain-Macha to own those cities. However, my narrator was absent, and those battles were never described.
@Chirurgeon: Yeah, Malac's death was my intent. I actually reloaded the battle four times in an effort to make it happen. However, the coward fled every time and I decided to work that into the story instead.
@defiant: There's even more twists to come. Glad you're reading along.
@Aaldaemon: This is reminding me of something I did to Chirurgeon a few months ago. Private joke, hehe. Glad you're reading and would be interested to see what you've thought up. PM me if you think it's worth your while. Rest assured, if I used anything I would give you appropriate credit. However, I've got quite a little planned out myself Always interested to see what people are thinking.
