User blog:Varkanax39/Into the Darkness is Finished

At last. I spent all winter working on this, scrapped four different versions of this story, and finally completed it. Anyway, I can now begin on TSC, which I'm really excited to do. Here's a short teaser for The Shadows Coil:

Against all odds, Fairon has won The Eternal Game. But there are secrets waiting in the shadows, as old enemies wait for a chance to strike at the victor, and Fairon, wishes to bring down the evil of the Ix and their Empire, who forced him to fight in a bloody arena until there was only one being left alive. Trapped in a dark void and hunting for the only being who can stand against the Empire and win, Fairon stumbles upon an Ix plot with horrible implacations for the growing rebellion.

After escaping the Ix's tyrannical domain, Shardak is trapped in a horrible abyss between dimensions, seperated from his friends Ion, Blast, and Kyhrex. Alone and lost within a prison full of challenges far greater then any he's faced before, and with the ever-presant menace of the Ix closing in on all sides, Shardak must make a devastating choice between the life of a friend and the destruction of a tyrannical, time manipulating enemy.

Since the end of her apprenticeship, Valkyria has become a skilled Ix warrior and a deadly assassin. Her mission, to hunt down and kill Toa Shardak, seems straightforward enough. But with an ambitious Ix planning treachery within their strike team, and an evil villian bent on temporal domination, Valkyria must make a choice: either perish at the hands of an ancient, dark organization, or form an alliance with a being who'se very existance goes against everything her order stands for.

And as the Ix tighten their grip on their Empire and another Eternal Game draws near, the destinies of Shardak, Fairon, and Valkyria explosively collide.

Anyway, please comment on what you thought of the end of ITD. On June 8th entering will end, and I'll hopefully begin work on the prologue of TSC tomarrow. Vark anax  39  01:02, June 3, 2011 (UTC)
