I saw this blog yesterday, but I wanted to read through Besieged first since I haven't found time to do it yet. I ended up listening to the video and reading the third chapter afterwards (with the reader's voice in mind) :D

I was glad to read/hear a clear difference between our undead; The Toa Metru question their actions and Vakama is the one who even shows some kind of regret. They also have the hunger for Matoran flesh. My Forgotten Warriors are just corpses with their own mind (the first days) who have the "false" belief that Nuva cures them.

The story was much more gory than your others (apart from that silly Helryx-torturing :P) but it matches both the Halloween-theme and the overall atmosphere very well. It was not one of the cliché zombie apocalypses one could expect. I could sympathize with the Toa Metru at some point... mostly with Matau. You kept his character even in his infected stage, with him being the "funny" guy of the group. The scene with his foot was great!

Other than that I really liked the devastation in the Matoran's life you wrote about. Always worrying about their Kanohi... and havng no chance against the physical strength of the Toa. I was quite surprised when Hahli turned down Dume's offer. It makes sense in the end, but I imagined some cool MoCs of Toa Tamaru, Hahli and Kopeke you would create!

I sadly can't comment on FitB by now since I still wasn't able to read any further yet. I'm quite busy at the time with some other stories by some old buddies, but I'll get back to yours when I'm done :)

Ah, that Kanohi Mask choice. I always like that, you did it with Caliga before (by the way... Merall would beat her. With a great amount of destruction :D) and I like thinking of which mask power these characters could have. I think the immoral ones are the most interesting but this time I thought about a "normal" one.

I think and Arthron could match Vilnius! I "rediscovered" the mask when you described it's effects in Besieged, but still... sensing the enemies and then throwing his hook at them? Sounds like a great combination :D

And seeing that Halloween Tollubo... that's probably the way Chorrum lost his leg in the Carniverse! Great shot, he looks pretty desperate. In retrospective it's sad Aescela never got her gory leg-cutting scene :P
