This week, newcomer to the Cythera boards Celchu brings us the first in what hopefully becomes a series, Below Sight: Saturday. This chronicle describes a day(Saturday) in the life of Milcom, Odemia's resident blacksmith. It's set many years before the game takes place. It's nice to have a chronicle that relates directly to characters in the game. You can read this chronicle [url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/cgi-bin/ubb/newsdisplay.cgi?action=topics&number=52&forum=*Cythera+Chronicles&DaysPrune=25&article=000105&startpoint="]here[/url].

You guessed it! We're still low on chronicles.

Like a chron-o-meter, when the bar is low we're almost out, when its near-full we've got plenty. And, you could even make it change colors too...like red for few and blue for lots. Posted Image

Yes, well, don't expect anything from me very soon. I'm too worn out from the last one. o.O

Same here. I'm finding it hard to get my head back into where I was up to on NH3, so I might have to scrap a lot of it and start the section over - which might not be a bad thing, I'm not sure it was working all that well anyway.

Ack. I haven't even looked at Shadow Prophecies since...August, I believe.

Yes, that'd be about right; about the middle of August would be the last time I did anything on New Horizons 3. I'm not giving up, though; I'm determined to finish it, even if I have to go back and rewrite a lot of it just to get back into the right mode of thought. How about you, Kat? You're not giving up on the Shadow Prophecies, are you?

I've been working on my chron for the Coldstone Chrons... It should be a series, if it is well recived there.

Summary: (I.E. what you'd see in TV guide under 'Travels of the Starfire, Monday' Posted Image )
Travels of the Starfire: Insidiae, Part 1
The crew of the interstellar salvage vessel S.S. Starfire finds a score of abandoned ships clustered in the Galactic Outback. Though it seems they’ve hit the jackpot, their find holds a deadly secret...

Oh, no, I'm definitely going to finish it...someday. I really don't know when I'll get around to working on it. But when it's finished, I have another idea for a chron. Don't give up on me yet!
