Also, I recently approached the amazingly talented Mr Daemonfae for a star map of the Calliope System, if you havent seen his, work, please do here:

cool idea... this will be right up his alley i think... and he did ask for such "jobs"

read the fluff. I like how you go about it and you discription is excellent with nice word choice. I feel like i really understand whats going on. Keep up with the fluff.

Thanks panda, CC is always welcome as well as the praise dude!!!

remember part three is friday


I'm also considering a special two part release for the midway section of parts 4 and 5, so you may get both at once, depending on edit time and such.

Lols I didn't know that Vik, but I'm glad I got in touch with him, he's bloody talented

ilkl hold ya to it on fridays release and the mid week release might be a good idea

i ahve deamon´s most recent works all on my table atm waiting to get assembled... even my wife liked his work!

yeah I may do a midweek release for part 4 and then part 5 on the friday.

I'm also quite happy how smoothly "Silence" progressed from the writing to edit to finished phases. fingers crossed the rest goes as smoothly

Yeah I love his terrain work, and his artwork is exceptional.. if GW doesnt employ him when he's a bit older then they are bigger idiots than I took them for.

his style of work is a digital version of the early Rogue Trader stuff which I love so much!!!

yup... the effects and the textures as such look very good... that is an understatement tho^^

Thanks Vik, I really appreciate it

btw Mattias will show up in part 4

lol... still one full chapter to wait^^

patience my friend... it won't kill you to wait two weeks

hmmm... and if i will never be able to ...wait for it... READ the tale^^

lols... I'll bloody slap you beyond the grave if I have to

lol... talk about a wakeup call

After managing to wrok through the night, from daylight to daylight, I have now managed to finish up a wip version of "prologue" with new background textures and fonts.

I would really appreciate feedback and CC please...


... time to go nap before my appointment

the new background is much better looking... the faided and grubby looking suits the grim dark scheme much better!

and what appointment?

the prologue is looking great! i havent quite finished part 2 yet, but so far im liking it, i especialy like how when you mentioned a servitor, you mentioned a tidbit of backstory on what a servitor is without taking away from the plot

^that RW... i never thaught about it but childe is writing in a way that doesn´t expect too much knowledge of the lore and the fluff of 40k but can still be enjoyed by a noob...

tis why i mentioned it, although he is putting it here for us who know, i conisder my self a fluff noob and i honestly didnt know where servitor some from, now i do! and i like that he put the backround in it

well at least that info i got earlier... it was so despisable that it got stuck damn good in my brain... really there is little the IoM isn´t cpable of doing to their next of kin as they do to their enemies^^

Rule of writing No.1. When writing, make the reader aware of everything without making them feel like an idiot

and thanks you two, I really appreciate it!!!

it is the rather simple compliments that work the best^^


the other day i was fetching groceries with my wife...being a man...i look occaisionally at other women then i saw someone.. looked and found it was my wife... told her my train of thought and she blushed...yey strike^^

Also, I've re-done the background again in the pdf, but haven't uploaded it yet. Basically I've inverted the colours that I used so its now a bluey grey which I think works a whole lot better. When I get back this afternoon I'll endeavour to finish off working on them and upload the revised versions.

hmm... could...could... will see about that

what you mumbling about eh Vik?

"Silence" Now available to read!!!

Liked the new part...still didnt understand why everyone with a brain blew up, but it sure added to the oh "your so fethed" catagory.

Lols it was only a select few people who's head blew up

it depends on what you know from 40k fluff... but its explained in the next part Advent, which has just this minute been typed up... now entering edit phase
