Help
...And what do they have to do with the Cult of Scylla(sp.?), the Undines, Abbydos(sp?), and Tavara? Sorry if this has been answered before, and I don't care about any spoilers.
P.S. Do the Undines make an appearence in Cythera (besides the ghost)?

The story behind Tavara and Abydos was apparently slated to be explored further in Cythera 2, which regrettably will probably never be produced (we keep hoping, though 
). Glenn reportedly had the story all mapped out.

Don't be so sure... though I seriously doubt ambrosia would be the ones publishing it.

Which, of course, would portray HoF as a pile of lies.

Of course, but that's the nature of fan-fiction

But the Tavara/Abydos story was a secret, creating the contradiction between the real story and HoF, which wasn't good. Both the nature of fan fiction and his signature still stand.

My sig is open for discussion. I'm willing to concede that some secrets should be kept, I'm just at a loss for a simple way to define just what kind of secrets shouldn't. Obviously, keeping some secrets in a story to surprise the readers is OK, and there'll be many other instances, I'm sure. If anyone has any ideas, I'm listening.
