...I fear you not feeble one... im going to go finish writing about Lancer stealing your bro... or atleast getting into trouble.. muahahah

[LightSniper]

Google, that last post was quite something... very interesting and very beautiuflly written. Its amazing how u can write about something so difficult to comprehend.

[Argonaut]

I can't quite remember, and don't really have the time to go back and look so I was hoping that someone might remember off the top of their head. Was Morgan Junior captured with someone? And is so is she/he still alive and in need of rescue as well? I remember vaguely a love interest, but I can't remember if she was killed in a riot or something, or her name. Anyone know? I'd appreciate your help.

Light Sniper-> I just try and add small bits like that when the opportunity arises. I decided I need Zak out before everything went down. If you have any ideas for any planned moments, I'd be more then willing to go for it.

Argo:

Indeed Jr was captured by Yang (Hydro's character) who has ben sadistically teasing Mwabudike by sending excerpts of the screams to him.

I think Hydro might have resue plans underway for him.

LS:

Thanks for the compliment. Actually got the ideas from a book I'm reading - who says plagiarism isn't alive and well?

Argonaut,

Morgan Junior was captured all alone at Morgan Bank. All the others in the resistance were messily executed in front of the Sean Connery Theatre (recreation commons) as an example. Junior's female companion at that time was actually a mentally distraught doctor from the razed research hospital that he took under his wing during the chaos. She was nerve clipped and scheduled to be mindwiped by the occupying forces, and it was that incident that caused Junior to instigate the failed revolt. She might still be alive, but I doubt that she has much of a mind left (unless she miraculously escaped, since we never actually saw the mindwipe!). My guess is that she would be unlikely to be an honored guest of the Good Chairman. Her name is Dr. Stephanie Shin.

Hydro

P.S. Just read Googlie's reply - I'll go with the flow with Junior. If someone has some ideas then charge ahead. I've been kind of hinting that Morgan Sr. would be more than a tad grateful if Junior were released from Yangs loving embrace (and his blathering).

Oh, and Yang is NOT maliciously tormenting Morgan Sr. with the screams of Junior. That was done as a legitimate tactic to destabilize an enemy, not for Yang's own pleasure. At least that is what he tells himself…

Hydro-> I kind of assumed you were turning Morgan Junior's escape over to me by asking Roze, I hope that's what you intended. I've got an idea for the escape, but my plan is to eventually get him back to Morgan Sr, at which point I don't really have further plans for the character. This of couse, is assuming the whole escape goes well, which of course would be rather dull If you wanted me to leave it with you, or if you wanted to collaborate I'm fine with that. I actually am going to try and wrap the story-line before the end of July as I'm going on vacation and would fall way to far behind. Anyways, just let me know what your thinking. If you wanted to keep Junior there for a bit, I have no problem getting Roze in a big bunch of doo-doo on the way.

As for Doctor Shin, there might be a way to incorporate her still. I'll think about it.

I'm back!

[senatus]

Just a general request, I had some plans with regard to Leader's Horde, and I'd appreciate coordination before affecting its status significantly (currently Hive, with Believer resistance, building Maritime Control Centre I believe?).

[Rynn:]

Fear not, Senatus.

The plan that Ron/Shauna was concocting - to use coercion via a captured Gnat - to get yang to fulfil his bargain has fallen apart.

They will now reappear elsewhere, and TLH remains as is awaiting your machinations.

Rynn

[senatus]

No worries Master Rynn :-). Please don't feel compelled to change your plans for Ron and Shauna (BTW, are they more your chars or Googlie's?), just that I'd appreciate a little "heads up" if it involves TLH. Not that I'd expect Yang to fulfill any such bargain anyways.

Speaking of Yang, I'm hoping Hydro will do some more of him (hint, hint? :-); it's easy to forget that Yang isn't some petty despot; he has an agenda that he believes in, and he's got one heck of a powerful personality on his own (as should all the faction leaders really - but Yang and Miriam will have the cult-like following, plus perhaps Morgan).

[Googlie]

Should we be renaming The Spartan Chronicles as The Canadian Chronicles?

Of the last ten posts in the Volume 3 thread, nine are by Canadians (Googlie/Rynn, Argonaut & Senatus) with Hydro the lone 'etranger'.

Of the thread itself (vol 3, that is), fully half are Canadian posters (honorary citizenship for Hydro, Lightsniper and Edgecrusher, guys?)

[self biased]

i just haven't been inspired of late... i'm going to officialy withdraw myself from writing... not that it'll be hard, or anytihng... i just can't come up with anything good at the moment. i would like to come back, but i give my characters to everyone to use; the only premise is that i get final say over what happens with them, etc. i hope to return as soon as my mind straightens itself out, but until then i bid everyone farewell, and may the muse be kind to you.

PS: i'm only going to entrust archon to the more senior writers, if they feel up to it. also, my email addy is edgecrusher2k@hotmail.com and that gets checked on average 5 times a day

oh, the wheels keep rollin and another milepost gone.
all alone on the road behind.
oh, can't you hear me callin, just like a sad whale song?
i'm on that road behind.

Argonaut,

Sorry for the absence (vacation and all…). Junior is yours. He will wait patently in his punishment sphere until Rose comes along to save his sorry carcass. After all, he has nothing else better to do other than be Yang's (un)willing student. Who knows - he might learn something! Ever hear of Patty Hearst?

Hydro

P.S. - Canadian Chronicles? Sounds a little unnatural to me. And what about quality over quantity?!! Well, hmmm…might lose out on that too…

[Hydro]

senatus,

Was my last post what you meant by more on Yang? I agree that he is one of the deeper characters, and it is easy to play him for a sadistic despot. The truth is, of course, deeper and perhaps darker. What lurks in the mind of Yang? Maybe he'll reveal his secrets to his current favorite, Morgan Junior.

Argonaut - don't worry. If Junior gets rescued before Yang's lessons are over he will probably thank you for it.
