Description
Sorry for the long wait! I've already started chapter eight if its any consolation.I laughed so GODDAMN HARD when writing the Official's speech. ( his name is Furgh and will be properly introduced soon... Don't ask me how I make up names...)
Well I was laughing because he kinda looks like a rock star with that long hair. And that bridges speech! xD I imagined him using his sword as a mock guitar and singing 'Love is a Bridge' by the Little River Band with his teenaged admirers swooning.
I was actually thinking of making the chapter 'Love is a Bridge' but i'd probably be sued.

Good song. It's just funny imagining Furgh singing it... (i'm going insane)

Haha! I had to read the last chapter to refresh my memory, it has been too long lol. I think this chapter is really good. You're descriptions of the weapons are informative but not too wordy and your characters are really starting to come to life now, don't you think?

Ah thats good. I remember you were getting bored with the knife and close quarters combat training with Kiltz, so I tried to make the weapon descriptions interesting and short. I could have included more weapons, but maybe another time. Glad it didn't bother you too much, but I definitely did need to mention pattern welded swords since pattern welded weapons are integral to the plot... Not to mention they are awesome and I wish I had one.
Yeah definitely, and also the characters also undergoing changes since their original conception.
Thank you for your kind words of encouragement!

... I can't for the life of me remember but I think it is probably best to keep weapon descriptions short and sweet. Yeah, you can always do other weapon descriptions in other chapters which are short as this can beef it out a little. At the end of the day do what you want as it's your story.
Aww, they are you imaginary children lol.
Don't ya mean my annoying banshee nagging!

Thanks Hile! Sorry for the long wait. It's thanks to ThreeSkipsFromEden for the constant and annoying nagging encouragement and support.
I can't thank you guys enough for your support, it's what keeps me going... but It's still in my nature to be forgetful and lazy.
I'll never tell you how I come up with a fictional name! It's so deviously complicated and intricate. I am a name generating genius!
(Pick a name and scramble the letters a bit, remove some letters, possibly add some z's, h's or r's in there and voila)
Orzandz= Oswald
Fidihl= Faida
Mahawe= Mathew
and so on...
Sorry if that dispells the magic, but you asked.

You have ruined the magic of your characters names, now I will just think of their normal names lol.

Lol! No don't! I like it when you annoy me- I mean support me. (Actually I think Navi's voice is so gentle and soothing.)
Have I?

if you actually heard my voice it might make your ears bleed lol.
yep... the magic is just gone....

Well I don't know if writing is something that can be truly scheduled lol. But the waits are always worth it.
Oh and how about your name? Sihronz? That match the culture?

That's true, but I could churn them out faster if I was more committed. I am glad you enjoy them.
It's not so bad coming up with the ideas, but the tweaking and reworking is 75% of the job! Gotta make sure i'm not contradicting myself, am I spoiling anything?, am I setting the plot twists up nicely? Am I revealing too much? Am I not revealing enough? Need to flesh out the new characters without neglecting the old ones.
Yes... Sihronz fits the formula. You got it! It's not a really strict formula... More of a guideline using existing names as a base/ foundation, and making changes to make it sound more exotic/ alien.

I know what you mean. It amazes me what kind of stupid mistakes I make when I'm writing a term paper or an article. Though when I'm doing those I don't really have to worry about spoilers, but I get the vibe.
Anyways, just be sure to tell me when the manga of Relic is out, alright?

You're a great writer Hile, from what i've seen you definitely have a nice writing style.
Haha yeah sure, but now i'm having thoughts about whether or not it should be released in a manga/comic format. Right now i'm thinking of just a regular novel with oil painting artworks as Illustrations. But either way, novel, comic, manga, game, movie you guys will be the first to know.
