Chapters IV, V, and VI of "Into the Mouth of Hell" are done · 10:44pm Aug 3rd, 2012
Sorry for the wait, but I'm easily distracted. Hell, the fact I finished those chapters was due to being stuck in south-west Turkey with no internet and therefore, no distractions.
For the record, the griffins speaking German is not intended to be offensive. I personally love Germany as a nation, particularly the clever way it drains money from the euro zone. It is simply meant as a cultural illusion, just as Equestria is a cultural illusion of Anglo-Canadian-American society and Prance is a cultural illusion of France. It is also meant to play on traditional western superstitions regarding Germany, to make a rivalry between Equestria and Griffannia more realistic. On that subject, I am definitely not trying to compare Griffannia's rule to the nazis or the kaisers of old. As shall be revealed later, Griffannia is a constitutional democracy.
