So. My story is on my Desktop which I attempted to upgrade today. Unfortunately the new ramchips were bad, and long story short it's gonna be a few hours before I can hopefully get to finishing the next chapter. Bad RAM related crashes fucked up my desktop to the point of deactivating windows and corrupting a few sectors of hard disk (Nothing imporatn was on them thankfully). I can fix it, no worries. Just be some time before I can work on story stuff.

Here's the plug in.

Enjoy the universal translator, courtesy of our pending glorious space-future.

So, the featured box. It's basically mythical to people here, we know how it works, but no one feels it realy works that way.

Is anyone annoyed by my use of actual German for Azur's occasional line of dialogue? I'm planning on having him teach Jade his translation spell. If it bugs people I can limit him to the occasional word in German and use "<...>" to designate something he said in German after everypony around understands the language.

I got board. I did character art. I was feeling... arty. SO I did a HQ anime style version of Azur. I'll do show vector styling later too. What do you guys think?

So I had somone PM me saying the dont understand how Stalliongrad can be so isolated from the world. This quote from a soldgier about the US's war in Afghanistan should shed some light on the how for everyone else.

[most of them didn't even know] That Afghanistan was an actual country. It's only so on a map; the people (in some of the more rural places, at least) have no concept of Afghanistan.

I had a fan of The Queen is Dead say the wanted to get a Bowie knife, and asked me what one was in my opinion, I assume to make sure i was using the term correctly, or meant the design Bowie, and not the brand Bowie. I figured you guys might like to know what I mean as well, and since I like showing off my knife collection... and I realize some people may hear "knife" and think "Oh yeah I know what that is" and under estimate by... a lot...

Here you go! A scale of knife size by type!

Alright everyone, there's the story map now that it's finished, with the places, and the names, and non-ass artwork. And a Derpy.

EDIT: Sorry for broken link, I accidentally uploaded the wrong version, it's the right one now.

You know how all the old fantasy adventure stories had a map in the front for readers to look at? Well I made one of those for THe Queen is Dead... and by extension every other story I have ever written.

I have added the locations relevant to the story immanently and listed every major country on the continent. More cities will be added as they are needed and I can be bothered to update

Sorry it's pretty crappy. Only had three hours for this. Oh, be sure to zoom!

Minor edit had to be made to the last chapter.

The smith who symbolized David's gun is NOT named Flax, she's named Falx. Spellcheck didn't recognize that Falx is a real word and a type of Thracian sword from the Roman era. They look a little something like this:

Anyways, I fixed her name. Nothing else has been changed. Damn you dyslexia...

Right, so you guys are clearly interested in the story, and enjoying it allot. You guys deserve an ending, so I'll be writing the whole thing as quickly as I can. Enjoy!
