[Sir Zeppelin]

Good story! Will it always be in diary format, or will you take us to the scene of the battle? Keep up the good work.

[Napoleon]

I'm glad you like it! I was afraid nobody would. Oh, and yes, I will take the story to a battle scene sometime soon. Get ready, this story is gonna keep geting added to, and I hope you'll read it all and enjoy yourself.

[Sir Zeppelin]

I would like to play the forestmen. Sorry forest fans!

[Napoleon]

Okay, in Castleland, the forestmen act as caravan escorts and general bounty hunters for Normendy, Ruratainia, and Telemar. Which, on the map are connected in that order.Their leader is Alfred IV, a brave leader, but he is getting up there in years, 73. He has a son named Robin IX.

[Sir Zeppelin]

Is there magic in castleland?

[Napoleon]

Yep. Although, as history progresses, people stop believing and practicing it. So, yes, at this point, magic does indeed exist, it is just getting rarer.
You can bring magic into it a little bit, just reserve the big stuff for wizards and shamans. I should have explained, that even though it says 1 C.E, it is not the first year in history. Every era starts with 1, and ends when the country its named after is no longer the dominant superpower.

[Sir Zeppelin]

What kind of currencey do they use? Does every country have it's own, or do they have a euro too?

[Napoleon]

They use doubloons. The kind Spanish knights used to use.

[Sir Zeppelin]

Is Richard the Duke of Jarith's brother? Or is his brother someone who suggested to the duke that he be imprisoned? The latter is food for thought...

[Napoleon]

Yes, he's the Duke's brother. That other idea is interesting, but in one of my old posts, there is a line were the Duke calls him "my brother." Sorry it's taken so long to respond. My internet has been on the blink. It always happens when I need it the most.

[Sir Zeppelin]

I would say that you own Calius and Alfred, Napoleon. You were the first one to mention them. I would probably own the Duke, since It was I who introduced him. There's a Cornelius?

It almost seems like we're entering a new phase of the story. Maybe we should start off with new charecters and then introduce the old ones back in! The more the merrier!

[Napoleon]

I swear I ment to give Cornelius to you, but when I was doing that, I just must have forgotten. I am sorry if you were offended, as I was trying to divide the characters equally between us, I hope it didn't look like I was trying to be a "ball hog." I hope you have just as much fun writing this story as I do.

Oh, yeah, as far as your second paragraph goes...the more the merrier indeed. Seriously, good idea.

[Sir Zeppelin]

I wasn't offended at all. I was just saying that I didn't know there was a Cornelius in the story! I tried to find him, but couldn't. What post is he in; what part does he play?

[Napoleon]

Oh. Hahaha. He is in your post about "the red clad head" and King Alfred's line:"leave me, Cornelius. Please, it's not your company."
