Some spelling errors I noticed (some other people may have already noticed these, but still...) The first box has the blue arrow outside the dialogue box. The second box has the article "the" repeating twice. The third box has "Caesar" misspelled as "Ceasar." [unless the latter spelling is a matter of personal preference] The fourth and fifth boxes are missing a period (.) after the words "training" and "base," respectively. Furthermore, the fourth box has misspelled "you're" should be "your." The sixth, eighth, ninth, and tenth boxes should have a comma (,) after the words "right," "happening," "savages," and "treasure," respectively. The seventh box has "instill" misspelled as "instil." The eleventh box has the following: H is Majesty... Also, whenever Alec, Noish, and Arden are positioned around an enemy as such: It gives the following error message: Other than that, I took enjoyment out of it.

...Does anyone wish we'd taken out both Hitler and Stalin when we had the chance? Oh, and happy birthday to the US. 234 already...

Welcome back. Good to see you. :)

...Goodbye.

I've played a bit of SRW3 via emulator. Could never pass the third stage, though... :(

EPISODE 1, PART 3 EASTERN TALYS, MORNING *Roy's thoughts and emotions turn to:* M-Mar... Marcus, Hector... S-Sue... W-Where are my friends? You were the only one to exit the rift. I... I see. So I'm the only one... That is correct. *Roy quickly rises from his bed.* Everyone's gone... N-No... I-I've got to... I've got to- *Roy collapses, while Wrys catching* You are safe here. B-But I must find them! I- *Wrys lays Roy back on the bed.*

NOTE: Since this board has a limit as to how many emoticons one can have per post, I'll have to split the chapters into multiple parts. Don't worry, I'll do my best to keep the pacing quick as possible. EPISODE 1, PART 2 EASTERN TALYS, MORNING *The boy who had fallen through the rift slowly opens his eyes, and realizes he is now laying on a bed. He pulls himself up to see the same curate from Episode 1-1.* Oooh... w-what just happened? *The curate walks to the right side of the bed, pulls up a chair, and sits.* You fell into the bay. *Roy's eyes widen in confusion.* W-What bay? You mean this isn't the Angel Tower? There is no Angel Tower on this land. Where am I then, good sir? This is the hamlet of Goldshire, in the island nation of Talys. I am Wrys, the town priest. Can you remember your name? ... I am Roy, son of the Marquess Pherae, i-in Lycia. So you're the son of nobility? I am pleased to meet you, my lord.

What's takin' you morons so long to take this dinky castle? Never mind, I'll do it meself! (Arvis starts a battle with Beowulf) Ya held out pretty well for bein’ on yer own. But I’ve gotcha now. Die! (Arvis takes out Beowulf’s HP) Grr... Lady Diadora... Forgive me! (Back to the map screen) Beowulf... Oooh! Who have we here... Lady Diadora of the Spirit Forest! Heh heh... You're comin' with me! Arione, you and Trabant are in charge.

LAST TIME, on THE TOWER OF POWER: At long last, you've found the tower. Good work, you guys. It's time to seal the darkness once and for all. According to my data, The demon king was bound at the fifth level of the tower. If we make it, we can still re-bind him. Is everybody ready? All of the refugees of Elibe and Magvel had gathered at the Angel Tower, preparing to defeat the Demon King, Fomortiis, once and for all. Everyone... Let's go! We've got to stop the Demon King! Everyone... Here we go! Give it your all, and beat this knave! HOWEVER... upon entering the tower, all of the party was turned to stone, save for Roy. Roy was thrown into the Interstice of Dimension, where he drifted, unconscious, until another rift opened and dragged Roy inside... EASTERN TALYS, EVENING *A curate is writing and rehearsing his sermon for the coming week in the village church. While doing so, he hears a loud WWRRRRRPPPP* W- huh?- What-What was that? *The curate opens the sole window of the attic and sees a bluish-white portal opening over the skies. Though he can barely see it, he notices a human-shaped speck falling out of the rift. He leaves the church building, then the village, to the site of the rift.* *The rift over the skies of eastern Talys is still open. The person that had fallen from the rift is a red-haired boy wearing dark blue armor and blue robes. He is plummeting towards the waters of the Eastern Talys Bay, but being unconscious, is in no position to feel any emotion. *The curate is now racing towards the bay on horseback, hoping to find the boy who fell through the rift and rescue him if possible. By the time he reaches the shores of the bay, he notices the boy has plunged into its waters. The curate dismounts his horse and wades into the waters. END EPISODE 1-1 COMING SOON: EPISODE 1-2

Note: This should technically classify as a 'written work' as per the rules here. If any staff feels that this should be moved elsewhere, please feel free to do so. So Serenes Forest doesn't have an active role-playing topic running, eh? Then I suppose I'll have to start my own. :) || STORY || 53 years prior to this story, the nation of Jinbaisha was the most advanced nation in the world, besting all others in wealth, agriculture, science, architecture, and the arts. Executive Marshal Daniel McCormick and Great Sage Jacques Brunswick were praying for the restoration of Emperor Perfecte in an attempt to aid the nation of Jinbaisha against anti-government forces rallied by nine traitorous Lords. A seal binding 108 spirits was broken, and the spirits themselves were released into the world and defeated the traitors, sweeping them into another dimension. Jinbaisha herself was reshaped by this event, losing half of her landmass (most of it in the south) and leaving behind an inhospitable desert in the north. 18 years after the seal's breach, each of the 108 spirits possessed and fused with select unborn children over a 20-year period, ending 15 years prior to this story. The spirits would grow up as regular humans and live their lives, rebuilding their country through growing crops, crafting or selling merchandise, or serving as a foot soldier or apprentice scholar. Life went on, as it always does. But the geography has been drastically changed over the course of time. Green zone - Republic of Jinbaisha. Over 50 years since the fall of the town, the nation has been slowly rebuilding her towns and economy. Green circle - Holy Blue Forest. The current host of the Republic's governmental and economic hubs, and the largest city in Jinbaisha. Red zone - Northern Wastes. Many of the towns here have since been abandoned, but various mercenaries, criminals, and other ne'er-do-wells wander through a few buildings. Red circle - Iron Mountains. Olympus Mons, the highest point on Jinbaisha, holds the Great Temple where 108 spirits were previously sealed. Teal zone - Sunken Faulter, a pirate's term for the land that was destroyed by the traitor legions during the Betrayal. Only the ocean occupies the area that was once land.

http://lifestyle.msn.com/your-life/bigger-picture/article.aspx?cp-documentid=20968901&gt1=32001 When it comes to domestic violence (DV), most people think that only women can be victims. But after reading this article, I was surprised (and upset) that women are also capable of committing DV, not just males. (On a side note, women usually make up for the lack of great strength with the use of weapons [knives, bats, hammers, et cetera] and the element of surprise, according to the article. Also, thank the high heavens the children spoke in his defence. B) ) I'm also upset that such a double standard exists: if a man commits DV, it's a crime, but if it's a woman who commits DV, it's a mental health issue. Such bias, it is. Does anyone else here think the same about this as I do? (Protip: Click the link and read the article first, then comment.)
