I changed the music, again.  Currently playing is "proposal" from "Dirge of the Cerebus".  The Windwaker final fight theme was hurting my ears...

Anyways I misplaced my character sheets for Wormeatter, Wolfkaunos, and Twee... But I have introduced everyone now and I'm only up to chapter 7...  fastest I've ever introduced my characters in a story before -unless it's a one-shot of course but meh I'm straying- so I'm pleased with myself.

:3

Sorry I couldn't help myself.  Anyways there's been a number of questions floating around, mainly about Ganondorf and Aryll, but all about "Song" and I though I'd address them since I could.. but if you rather I didn't I could babble, I'm really good at babbling...

OK, I swear I'll stop now and get on track!

Question one: "Does Ganondorf plan on making Aryll into one of his minions?"  

Answer one:  No, he probably does not. All I can say for sure is for the moment the answer is no.  All he's seen of her is a silly little girl -after all sane, rational, people don't chase feathers with a Wolfos and he saw her doing that- who might be able to use magic.  He's keeping an eye on her because she might be a threat to him or those around her.  His servailience is a security measure and a slav to his boredom.  He's also making a bit of a study of her and the other girls to get a grasp of what the islands are like.  After all he can't leave Forsaken, he's bound there until Link pulls out the sword and that's going to happen in one of the last chapters...

Question two:  How long is Song going to last?

Answer Two:  Pretty long, most of the game if I can manage it.  I've just introduced everyone and we're on chapter 7.  Aryll going to bumble around the fortress and Link still needs to make his appearence for the first time.  And yes, in the game it takes a day.  That's grossly unrealistic, I'm giving Tetra two weeks with a very good steady wind in her ship's sails to get there, and even then I feel it's really strretching things...  After Link runs into Ganondorf, Aryll's life is going to be even harder.  Though who makes Aryll's life harder... that might intrest you because it's not going to be Ganondorf.

Question three:  Is this going to be a romance between Aryll and Ganondorf?

(yes, I got that question from a reader... *shudders* pairing fanatics go a little far even for my taste and I'm fairly tollerant)

Answer three:  Aryll's what... eleven and Ganondorf's six hundred?  Ganondorf may be brutal but he's not a pedafile or a rapest.  He's also not the type to be interested in women, he was when he was younger -mildly- but his heritage (which is non-hylain, hylain's aren't human, or elves, and Gerudo and Hylian's are different spiece.  Thier closly related gene wise but they are not the same, there can't be a half Gerudo and half Hylian children, they are totally incompatable, and Gerudo and Hylain are culturaly trained to find the other repugnant.) and the brutality and racist purity that the Gerudo preach is heavily a part of his psyche.  He'd be interested in a Gerudo, OK he might be interested in a Gerudo, but anyone not of his race wouldn't interest him in the slightest.

There will come a bond between him and Aryll though, and it might be one that he'll have one heck of a time adjusting to.  Friendship.

Question Four:  I don't recognize these monsters?  What's going on here, they don't seem evil?

Answer Four:  Well I don't follow the cartoonish graphic descriptions to the letter, I just use it for generalities.  Also, since Aryll doesn't know the names of the creatures she has to use her limited vocabulary to describe and explain the world around her.  So she's kind of floundering there and it will lead to some reader confusion.  She'll be given names, and other characters will take over for the narative more and more often so the confusion will clear up bit by bit.  As for why they are not evil... not all of them are good, no all of them are evil.  I'm going by that old standby "there are no absolutes in good and evil" I personally don't believe in there being an ultimate evil or an ultimate good (at least not in mortal creatures) so you rarely will see it in my works or even in my villans.

I was listening to some music, "Gravity" by Veinna Teng.. amd watching the youtube AMV waking hour and these lyrics cuaght into my mind and shook out a few chapters of "Song of the Seagulls"

"this is the same place

no not the same place

this is the same place love,

no not the same place we've been before"
