Grandfather's Tale *Thread Updated 11/17/20*

So, in honour of today being my 5th year anniversary of joining Classic-Castle, I am officially releasing the first installments of what is intended to be a somewhat longer tale. I shall warn you now, though, that updates shall be irregular at best (namely whenever I feel like and have time--a rare combination).

Presenting, then, for lack of a better name: "Grandfather's Tale."

And thence on to Chapter 1
Chapter 2
Chapter 3
Chapter 4
Chapter 5
Chapter 6
Chapter 7
Chapter 8
Chapter 9
Chapter 10
Chapter 11
Chapter 12
Chapter 13
Chapter 14
Chapter 15

Unfortunately, that's as far as I've made it yet. By the by, when I say "chapter" what I really mean is "run of thematic scenes shot at the same time"... which does sort of work out to be a conventional chapter.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
EDIT: November 17th, 2020

Chapters 16 *and* 17 are now online (and have been for a while...)--see this post of this thread for links and news.

This is some epic stuff, if you don't mind the pun. You've got my attention for sure!

Nice work. Just wished there was a bit more to read. The grandfather should hand out gags before starting.... :D

Bratty kids, interupting the story all the time. No wonder it's going to take so long to finish it.

This is really nice. I like the kid's comments. They remind me of trying to read to my four-year-old niece.

I am thoroughly enjoying this tale and the realism of the whole grandfather/young-grandchildren-who-don't-have-the-patience-to-sit-through-a-good-story dynamic. Since when do children ever sit quietly through a good story? Very nice, sir!
