Bryce, I have solved your continuity of Cythera's future problem. Read closely...

Past. Present. They exist, so why not write about them? Write about Alaric's struggles in government, or the fall ot the third tyrant. Take domains from facts given in the game and expand where no one has gone. It's not much of a solution, but it is a solution. If we're lucky, we'll see some chrons from you soon.

You didn't solve it, you told me to do something else. That does not count.

"Solve, transitive verb, solved, solving. 1. to find the answer to; clear up; explain."- My Dictionary

And I quote again..."clear up;"

Simply put, I cleared up the continuity by giving you an alternate solution, and according to my dictionary's definition, I solved the continuity.

Okay, but it is an unacceptible solution. Yours is similar to the solution selected by the doctor in this little skit...

****************************

Doctor walks up to stretcher being pushed by paramedics and occupied by a person, a certain F. Chron/
Dr. Somebody: What have we got here?

Emergency Medic #1: He was assulted by mutant clone elf minions outside his home. Contusions to his skull and a broken right femur.

Dr. Somebody: Dosen’t sound overly serious, altogether. Hmm...

Doctor Thinks.

Ideas pop into the good doctor’s head.
(1) Administer pain relivers and antibiotics. Stabalize Mr. Chron’s condition and then have that leg set so it heals properly.

(2) Put the pateint out of his misery. There are lots of other perferctly good people.

Dr. Somebody: Get me my shotgun.

That is a life. This is a chron. The difference makes the ethics totally different. However, if you are that much against my position, then ignore this.

Maybe your ethics, but I bet you could find someone who rates a story above the life of a person. [/stupid comment]

It is really an issue of ethical scale, not substance. The substance is the same, the scale is (Vastly) diffrent.
