User blog:Aljarreau/Monthly Update - October 2013

"Oh, how delightful to create this Blog Posts... Don't tell me it's already November!"

- Aljarreau upon discovering his intolerable lateness

Hello, mighty Wikia people! Aljarreau here with a late October 2013 Update! :P Loads of MOCs and Storyline information await you a few scrolls down!

My October
A stressful month, to say the least. I've recently entered my last-but-one year of school, and exams have been unleashed upon me since then at an impossible ratio. (I know a certain university-goer will be snickering at that point, but I'll courageously ignore it.)

I've had four exams this week and will have four next week too, so I spontaneously decided to write this bloody overdue cool October Update today, before a hellish week may start. Two Chinese exams, Physics and German... Come on! D:

Enough of whining now, let's get to it! :D

Short Overview
Some of you may have already stumbled upon this weird designation across the Wiki and may have wondered why I would name a whole Alternate Universe after a mostly unknown Ga-Matoran Weaver who had a small appearance in the Mata Nui Online Game 2. (less small, however, if you absolutely wanted to get the Rigging... Insane fool.)

Let me explain.

In the Shasa Alternate Universe (Shasa Universe for short, SU for even shorter), Hahli was never chosen by Jaller for the journey to Voya Nui, Shasa the Weaver being selected instead.

Jaller, however, soon regretted his choice. Shasa proved herself to be not half as good at fighting the Piraka as Hahli would have been, leading to all of the Toa Inika being killed by the rogue Skakdi.

The latter managed to enter the Chamber of Life, defeat Vezon and steal the Kanohi Ignika, the Mask of Life. The Great Spirit Mata Nui died, and the entire Universe fell into great Shadow.

The Toa Nuva remained locked inside the World that Feeds the World, leaving the City of Legends to the protection of the sole Order of Mata Nui.

Yeah, that kinda sums it up. An Article about all this shall soon follow! ;D

On to the MOCs! :D

Painted Kanohi
Yes, I've come to paint Kanohi too! :D

Letter To Arigda
I've written one story concerning the Shasa Universe until now, it's called "Letter To Arigda", you can find it here, and it would be really nice if I could get some feedback on it! ;D

Swank Will Have A Fall (Remains Alternate Universe)
Not about the Shasa Universe, but still quite nice, I think, is this story here, written for Vorred's Writing Contest. Feel free to read it! :D

Farewell
That's been a big chunk of wikitext! XD

Well folks, I wish you all the best for November! Until next month! :D
