It's Friday! And the prologue has been posted. It's short. Next week is the first chapter with characters and story.
I've had a few people poke at me about the length of the appendix. Mostly in person, but still. Keep in mind, please, This is a rough draft. I'm writing things and figuring things out as I go (but if I don't have people waiting, then I get bored and lose focus). A lot of the notes in the appendix will find places to be told in story, but until then, they are as much for me as you right now. It's already gone through dozens of changes before posting and it's gone through several changes on my end since posting! Roscrow keeps growing and shrinking by a few inches depending on how I feel at the time, I swear. As things find places in story- whether in lessons, explanations or actions- then they will be removed from the appendix. Also, the humanoids section is a blend of explanation for the planet specifically and overall as I intend to point to it for other stories later on. I have a lot of Q'Hu stories in store- those struggling on far away worlds, those floating in space, and even some shorts about those right there on Tyliss (I'm actually quite taken with Jackal, he can be fun, at times, but only because he's in my head). Lastly, they usually come at the end, right? You read the appendix only when you need to. I'm posting one chapter at a time online. I figured I'm doing folks a favor by not leaving them in the dark right off the bat.
It's free and rough. Enjoy it as it is. If you have constructive criticism (such as how to put some of the details into the story, how to explain things better, or point out boring spots or places I could smooth things out, to name a few) please feel free to point it out, but do not demand I change things because you don't like them, you'll get blocked (*glares at haters*). There may be loop holes. There may be spots that are just summaries that pick back up into story. I have a lot of other stories I'd like to finish so I'm trying to rush through as best I can. I'd like to remove all the incomplete stories eventually.
Oh yeah, and this story will have named chapters. I don't know why, just felt right. Some may not. If I don't have a name, then I'm open to suggestions. If you guys have a personal dragon, tell me the colors and I may add it to the story! Possibly as a dam for Granger.... Dragon gets around about as much as his Rider.
Oh, and question, would you guys like more pictures? I've drawn images of other Drawgs, Da'La'Gin, and even one of Roscrow, but I decided against posting as it may hinder or help imagination, but I would like to leave that up to the readers.
Enjoy this short snack for now, and I'll see you all next Friday with a real chapter.
