Bahamut: Hmm.. How to explain without going overboard with details. Long, long ago, when civilizations were just starting and nations just forming. Everything was in it's pure forms. Humans were humans, demons were senna, fish people were fish people, etc.. As time went by.. People began to mingle with each other.. Especially humans and demons.. As time went on to the story's present time, demon's became more humanoid. Despite becoming more hmanoid, each demon has it's own special feature. Keiz's appearence is more upfront evidence about him being demon. For Alliaster and Luna, their's are a less apparent.

SSD: Like I've said before to Dwork.. Soon

Unlike the roleplay, where the Dragon was a little afraid of an actual fight, could this upcoming brawl be a little action-y?

Anyways, phenomenal chapter. I loved the length compared to the rest of them. All I could spot concerning errors were grammar, such as missing quotation marks in places and such, and sometimes using forms of words incorrectly. But that really doesn't matter. I absolutely loved it.

Read this at work earlier this morning, and was full of excitment to do so.

I... wasn't as overly enthralled as Rupe and HSK, and have just read it again to see if they've seen something I've missed.

There is some actiony stuff at the start in terms of establishing the bad guys, and again at the end with this Akarui guy barging in and blowing the bladdy doors off *half-dragons means automatically my favourite character*. The face off was kinda cool, and sets up a tense and exciting wait for next weeks chapter... but... Keiz's reaction was a bit weird for an evil despot I thought. His reaction to someone barging in and potentially attacking him seemed a bit... un-evil kingish to me. That's just me. I don't know Keiz from the RP, and I'm probably too fixated/used to my idea of a old, grouchy, mad villian king like Galbatorix (Inheritance Cycle), Nero (YuGiOh Armageddon) and other places.

I loved the scene with Alister, Sierra and Darrius. I am so starting that tradition, that's amazing.

However Sierra's death is sort of 2 chapters overdue now. Appreciate it was meant as a happy and hopeless scene, but it should have ended with her death confirmed. Again just IMO.

Despite my points, it was another enjoyable chapter. There was more content. Luna, Vun Doom (great name however came up with him) and half dragon man came across well. I'm all for an undead army (not sure how they can die if they're undead but I know what you're trying to say) and the range of soldiers. Sierra was awesome. Looking forward to next week.

I read the prologue. As a writer, I want so badly to correct every grammar and spelling mistake I see (there are quite a few, but that's completely natural; it's the job of an editor to clean up).

Honestly, if I could clean up your writing, it would read so much more beautifully. Heck I'd even do it for free as a pet project. If you want me to, just give me the permission to do so and I'll post it up when I'm finished. :D

Verz: Another great mini-review. Not exactly sure why Dworkin and HSK are excited either. O_o But yeah.. Sierra is dead.. It just hasn't been officially stated but its been hinted at by her skin color. I'm glad you like the tradition. I'm thinking about starting it myself. Lol.

Kirun: Sure. Just go ahead and PM me the editted version. We'll discuss more of you becoming an editor in the PM.

No worries.

Ah, okay. Could have used something a bit more like dead than dying, like dropping her glass or a noise or even just eyes closing or something a bit more 'she's dead now', rather than 'going... going... still going...'

It's a small point.

Need a bottle of the finest lemonade from 1989. Straightedge lifestyle ftw. :lol:

Bahamut: Dun worry. There will be a more definate "she's dead" moment. Well, she is dead. Just turning into a ghost. Anyways. I'd have to get a bottle from '91.. .__. Gosh I feel old.. -Lowers head.- Anyways!

Kiran: Sorry for the delay. Not on often during the weekend.

Btw everyone, the daily release of this week's edition miiiiiight be pushed back.. Please dun kill me! >__<

*was sharpening sword* okay ._.

Anyway, chapter 3 was a the best so far by far ^^ not only cause Akarui made his debut, as awesome I made him XD

I feel there's been a little copy-paste? Hmmmmm?

And again, I still suck at reviews so I'll be more the "sits back commenter who comments late" guy

Looking forward to #4 :3

Thanks.. It was a Valentine's gift from Kyng. :3

Lol. Anywho, Wolf'll mostly be fixing the grammar, spelling and any time tense issues. So hopefully, those won't be an issue any long in future releases. S/He's also fixing up the previous releases as well, so those will be updated with the fixes upon the next release as well for future readers.

Daw... is insanely jealous :P

Kyng hasn't accepted my friend request yet, bastard! (Says he who takes forever to accept people himself).

Right, anywho, will be sure to re-read them then to compare.

The text hasn't been too bad at all, it fits the story in that there's nothing overly complicated and long words that would be out of place here. It's all short and sweet, and the descriptions were balanced, better than mine which go on a bit. Hope Wolf doesn't mess around with the thesaurus too much.

I'm not touching her style or structure. I'm literally just spellchecking and making the sentences grammatically correct.

I really am sorry for the delay everyone.. This chapter, however, is going to be pretty big! Btw.. With the 3 chapters, I'm barely past the first page of the RP! This chapter, should cover almost all of the second page.. So yeah..

This chapter will, hopefully, make up for the past 2 weeks. Thank you for putting up with me. -Bows quickly before running off to finish paper and then work on story-
