    From where I'm standing: We're already there.
    the meadhall is already dead. the forum for NTW was never really alive. and ive never even set foot in the STW2 forum and ive barely been in any forum after RTW which i spammed gloriously. those were good days man. days of cowboys and loose spammers. you could get hit with a poll whenever u werent watching and the keepers of law were rough men theirself and they didnt mind a lil fun. then the dark days of order kicked in and ever since ive felt this place die inside a little every day. the names of glory fade, who remembers The Emperor, Jag, Craterus, BKS and Beiruit... only the old men who sit on the benches and stare into nothing. remniscient of the past, they wonder what is left to live for and one by one the RL claims them. They will be gone forever and soon there will be noone left like them to remember.

    Not in my mind. For me it is something like a beginning with no end. It all became with the death of a high-ranked official, his "bad" son as a main (?) suspect and several love affairs between various characters ... I admit I wanted something new and innovative... (I might have been too innovative with the love triangles... ~:D)The result was a mixed success (or failure), I would say... To make the things worse, I got less and less time and more and more ideas. Now there is something like a trilogy in my head. A story before the current story, a plot after this story, the current story, of course. And I missed to add one or two more stories on the same theme. That's very ambitious, I know. Especially for a non-native speaker... Time will tell what will happen with these thoughts...


    Anyway, perhaps there is still a chance for the Mead Hall to arise like a phoenix from ashes...(if the inspiration to the members of this club returns)

    P.S. And yet, it will be great shame if I leave the mystery of Nicephorus' death without an ending scene...

    P.S.2 Ah, yes...the Org. has really helped me improve my English... Even outside my clumsy writings, this is a very useful result from my membership...

    P.S.3 Why sound like people on a funeral? It's too early to bury the Org. alive... !
