Nice to see the Elf and the Nord getting along, of sorts. The three of them traveling together was when I enjoyed your stories the most - my favorite times with her and her friends. I can recall some really great banter between them all and you wrote Alerik just perfect. It would be nice to see these two again and what they might be up to, if anything, and if there paths will once again cross with the Dragonborn.
Congrats on the degree. It is indeed a nice feeling of accomplishment to get.
Yeah, I thought it would be nice to make these two interact more, since they never truly bonded (I don't think Alerik considered Larkspur's constant teasing a bonding process...). Also, I wanted to give them some more attention, since I focus so much on Saga's falling into madness etc.
Thank you again! Your insightful comments are always appreciated.
I grew up on the lighter "adventure" style of fantasy stories. Oh I read very diverse fantasy, and science-fiction, but my comfort stories, my curl up on a rainy day in my secret corner stories, those were the fun adventure stories. A bit of humor and more casual but also a serious side a times. Nothing that would ever win a writing award though.
I would not be surprised at all, however, if someday you wrote something that won some type of award. Your writing is that good at least IMO.
As a fellow fantasy reader (and reader in general), I see where you come from: I also prefer light-hearted stories to cheer me up or simply make me feel all warm and fuzzy after a tiring day. Or these really, really badly written ones - I love fantasy pulp and I can't help it.
But when it comes to writing, it's a 180-degree turn for me. I have the time of my life while writing sad or depressing stuff. Or scary, but that is super hard to achieve (at least for me). Warm and fuzzy doesn't feel as enjoyable for me, maybe because is tougher to write in general: it easily becomes way to fluffy. I'm up for the challenge, though, as too much sad content is never good
A big congratulation to your degree as well, dear Kayol! I never had any doubt...
Really well done
Congrats to your degree
I am sure when one gets a taste of adventure as Saga's friends did it is indeed hard not to heed that call, it is nice to see them reach an understanding before Alerik headed off to sleep off the drink. It seems they might see Saga sooner than later if she has finally climbed the many steps of that great peak, ready to learn more of the voice and the dragon blood in her veins, that she has resisted the whispers of the night mother. A very well crafted chapter and I really enjoyed seeing the perspective of Saga's friends
It kind of struck me right now, reading your comment, the part about not drowning in alcohol - Alerik turned out in this piece strangely like a mix of the characters from "Princess Bride", didn't he? Lost alone just like the giant Fezzik, drinking his loneliness away like Inigo. I never knew Goldman influenced me so much. Damn.
Well, I am sure they will meet again. As for the second part of your comment - we shall see
Thank you again, dear!
