(REVIEW) All That We've Lost

[Edelgard]

A.K.A. "By the Numbers 3"

 

This epic was originally designed as a Short Story, but it became long enough that BZP would have chopped a bunch of it off; so here it is in Epics as a two-part story. Since it's already complete, I'll be posting Part 2 within the next two days (depending on how long the forums are down for tomorrow).

 

The following two links are totally optional; they're both games run by me, to which this story is the sequel (and conclusion) to. Those who have played the games or know what occurred in them might catch a few extra references, but I intentionally wrote this story so that it could be entirely standalone... hence why any other connections you might find aren't as obvious as they would normally be.

 

By the Number 1 - By the Numbers 2

 

Synopsis

Two Matoran have been sent plunging through one's darkest memories on a quest to stop Makuta from achieving his ultimate goal. The journey carries with it no hope of victory, nor a chance at escape; all it promises is that they shall lose everything.

 

Part 1 - Part 2

 

I hope you enjoy.

YAY!

[Edelgard]

YAY!

I assume you enjoyed Part 1.

 

PART 2 is now up as well! (And thus this thing is complete).

Wait... will this continue into something else?

The ending is merely a hint of things to come, though said things shall not be occurring until later.

Definitely enjoyed this. Especially the references, although I didn't get all of them due to having missed out on a few games back when... still, I really like how you got all those things into one coherent story.

 

Also, the usual praise is yours for an amazing writing style and clear and precise fighting scenes, atmosphere and everything. Love it.

Do we get anything but

I liked Part Two a great deal. (Now I need to stop listening to this voice in my head that says, "this is real".) Regardless, you've given the characters of Taka Nuvia and Voltex a lot of depth, in a way that was enjoyable to read.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I must admit, I'm happy people enjoy my fight scenes; oftentimes I feel like I'm unable to write them how I want to, which is frustrating.

I do my best to spoil you all

Glad you enjoyed it! It's just a shame that these versions of the characters aren't the ones being seen elsewhere - well, specifically Voltex, that is. This Voltex would be neat to explore with greater depth.

Can't wait for you to work the ending in. =D

Don't expect it in Book 2; but do expect it in Book 3.
