FYI for all concerned: I wasn't trying to steer the party, I was just trying to politely float the idea. It sounded fun, that's all. :P

Well, I'm back (although I do have one or two other things that I still need to finish).

I suppose that I might have to go ahead and doublepost. If I do go ahead and post (and, at the moment, it looks I will end up doing so), I'll probably go ahead and try to launch the group into the main plot. My idea is that Wizard uses his telepathy and locates Chrysothemis.

No offense intended, Two Jacks, but I really don't know if now is the best time to split the group up. After all, they hurried down to Catamarca in attempt to beat the killer to its victim and are really on a deadline. It also seems likely to me the story would stagnate if this were done before everyone was effectively launched into the main plot.

(Note: I'm not against giving people time for character development, but it seems to possible to me that if more people were involved in plot control and direction they would probably have more time for developing their characters.)


Now. . .where did everyone else go?


EDIT:
Actually, another school final has come up, so I won't have as much time these next few days as I had hoped.

Um... I had 4 pages of maths and 5 of science to do for homework... and yeah, haven't really had time to even go on the computer, let alone post.
However, I am here, and will post!

Actually, Cyrus probably could enter town undetected. It's not easy to tell that he's a mage (and if asked, he could just say that he can't do magic.

Actually, that's not really that far from the truth.)

Well, I'm back (again, although I hope not to be surprised by another final this time). I'm probably going to go ahead and post soon. I don't know how long it will be, but I will probably try to move things along a little at least.

Hmm, I suspect that I rushed matters somewhat and did not provide sufficient detail in my post. Perhaps, I shall have to edit it.


I'm curious: who here is still participating in this TS? Should we give up on this TS?

I do not wish to do so, but the lack of participation at this early stage bodes ill for the rest of the story.

Your post is good

I'm here, I just want to have a few more posts between my last and my next.. and I've been out of the loop (as far as characters) for a while, so I'm not too sure on how the group would attack.

All I know is that Radik would go in there and swing his claymore..

If you don't like what happened to our 'Terminator', or any other aspects of my post, just say so. I figured that something had to be done to hurry the story along.

For clarity: Neither Cyrus or Gem are dead, but both are out cold.

Good post :P . I think that the "terminator" might be a bit more invulnerable, but that's just my own idea.

Incidentally, I'm thinking of prolonging the fight a little bit (with its target in sight, I'm inclined to suspect the creature would continue to attack), but I am concerned that that might further slow the already slow TS. I do have a plan to end this particular battle though, so I might just push us past it.

Does anyone have any opinions?

Uhhh... the way I wrote it, the 'Terminator' just teleported out. If you'd prefer for me to change that, just say.

Well, I posted at last. Sorry I've been away for so long; things got really busy for a while there. But I will endeavor to be more involved here in the future.

My post was just a brief update on the situation and a continuation of the battle scene for just a bit longer. I couldn't think of anything else to do. I don't really have any idea of where to take it from here, but I figure someone else will come up with something. :P

Hmm, it seems that my suggestion of continuing the fight scene might not have been for the better: my apologies.

I guess that I'll go ahead and end the fight.


Who's still around? I'm wondering whether or not we have enough people to finish the TS.

Idle curiosity.. am I right in assuming Cyrus (and Gem) have been left behind when the rest of the party ran? (I could possibly work with that :P no promises though.)


Also, how long ago (from "current" Cythera) is this story? My grip on the timeline is hazy.

I think that Wizard had Shanadar pick up Cyrus in his post. Of course, we could always say that they dropped him and failed to pick him up, assuming that someone else had done so.

I don't think that an exact year for the story had been established. Using dusk's Cythera timeline (here for anyone curious) and some assumptions (among them the idea that Chrysothemis is about twenty at the time of this story), I think that it's probably set around the year 178.

Right. I've got a post ready, but I'd like to run it by someone--preferably Selax or Wizard, as they're really the ones driving the TS right now--before I set it in stone. Don't want to upset anyone's grand master plan, after all.

. . . Or I could just edit a sentence or two out of my post. :P
Just let me know, Moonshadow, if you want to use that; I will gladly make an alteration.

Anyways, I'm still here. I hope to post soon, I just need to think of what to say. That, and as soon as I log onto #cythera, there is no possible way I can get a post done and talk with all of you friendly people at the same time!

Well, I finally posted. I didn't move the story much, just stuck in some more conversation with Chrysothemis and such. It's up to the next poster to decide where to take the story. :P

My apologies for my lengthy absence; I have been somewhat tired of late.

However, I'm still around and will probably post something today, even though it might be short. Hopefully, my break will have helped restore my interest.

Well, myself, for starters!

As for everyone else who's still here; get posting, on the double! And that goes double-on-the-double for you newbies! :P

In case you are wondering, Gem is being less than truthful.

Again, my apologies for not posting...I've been kind of hoping that someone else would go ahead and do so. At any rate, I'll probably post soon.

As an aside, I'm seriously wondering whether or not this TS can actually be completed with its current level of participation.

I'm going to try to post tonight.

Concerning this TS's level of participation, all TS's should be finished, some just take longer than others.

Edit: I just posted. I knew that we were taking the group into caves, so I simply could not resist the references to Lord of the Rings that I included. :P
