Hey Look I Posted A Story!

Setting expectations for 100+ views (not counting my own) before I finish posting all the chapter. Yay for setting low expectations!

 

So I just posted a new epic, A Shadow's Contrivance (review topic). It's a sequel to my story Kulagi's Kanoka, featuring the same Onu-Matoran Kanoka Maker, but this time he and his friends are in the middle of the Toa and Dark Hunter war in Metru Nui.

 

I wrote the original story for these characters in 2006, and posted in 2007. Sometime later, I started writing a sequel, Kanoka Makers of Metru Nui, which features the characters in the Morbuzakh era... but the concept wasn't well received and I never finished the story, despite having a fairly detailed outline for it. Then, in 2014, I got inspired to start writing anther story, but this time set during the Toa and Dark Hunter war. It was originally supposed to be a short story, but then the plot lengthened and content was added and suddenly it's twice as long as the original. Whoops.

 

Anyway, I now have it in a decent state of completion. The chapters are *mostly* written, and I have brand new artwork for all the chapter headers. (I revamped my design for the Metru Matoran, and ended up tracing the set images for a bunch of Dark Hunters. It took some effort, but I'm pleased with the results.) So now I'm going to start posting it and see what people think. Given that I haven't had any luck getting reviews in the last decade (despite having posted some awesome stories, IMO) I'm hopeful that someone will read and enjoy this. (It's helpful if you know the characters beforehand, but not necessary.)

 

Also, I'm about to post a legit set review. It helps that I have a review table again; I was previously set up on a makeshift table a foot off the floor... it was far from ideal. It'll make reviewing easier, although I'm probably going to be preoccupied until March as I prepare for BricksCascade.
