Re: Writing Prompts

I've also thought of starting a third writing prompt. What do you guys think about one set on one of the three sister worlds, pre spaceflight. So no humans at all. Maybe Deinar iron age or Perrein cold steel and muskets. Would that be of interest? I already have trouble keeping up with the other fa...

Re: Writing Prompts

Yes they can sense the animals, but will be handicapped by the night and by the traps if they decide to move. Staying where they are might be the better option but they will be stalked by a group of animals capable to coordinate attacks and exploiting sacrifices by individual animals from the pack ...

The Mizol team may need to seek refuge with the diral, that is *if* they survive through the night while under attack by the pack of animals

Re: Writing Prompts

The chief problem is that it moves too fast, as for the Diral attacking the warriors, Nathan would be the first one who would try to stop them. He just felt the wrath of repeater firearms and he know what a single show musket can do, a gun firing multiple shots at the same time? He won't allow the ...

Re: Writing Prompts

Also... I *seriously* doubt dirals would be given a generator when planetside. Maybe the ones in isolated areas of space stations, but not those camping in the wilderness. They have been given firestarters ;) and blasters for their blast furnace. Those could be fairly self contained. After all Loro...

Re: Writing Prompts

Not to mention that obtaining parts and slices of metal from a meteorite without any tools, feeding 20 large animals 3 hoppers a day each, and Natan participating in a telepathic sceance can be a stretch too. Making steel is impossible to do with a pizza oven so a little application of high tech mag...

Re: Writing Prompts

@Frontiers For a bunch of teenagers without any life experience, the Diral seems rather knowledgeable. They think they are. But for starters, there is one fatal flaw in their idea. Just think, what would a military outfit - and the Mizol surely are one, if it'd be only a recon/scouting/surveillance...

Re: [WP] New Frontiers (Story Thread Only)

Soon after Blackrune and Poisoned Claw added their hands, Argent proposed to move inside the large Diral cabin. Sitting in a circle, they reestablished physical contact, forming a group of five, able to instantly share thoughts and concepts, with Nathan participating for the first time. One of the ...

Re: The Astronomy Thread

Last month this South African MeerKAT radio telescope image was released. It shows our galaxy’s central region at ~26,000 lightyears. MeerKAT will be part of a larger international Square Kilometre Array (SKA) in the Karoo (“thirsty land”) region of Northern Cape province. http://www.ska.ac.za/wp-co...

Re: Writing Prompts

I have no good idea or fixed opinion about this. But we could stick to "very high information density" to set it apart from normal sanzai. In New Frontiers the focus is mostly on the interactions between Nathan and the Loroi. While going they discover that - in some ways - they may enhance each othe...

Re: [WP] New Frontiers (Story Thread Only)

Before Coldfire reached the stronghold she already learned that the amplified sanzai wave had washed over it. All the pickets between the pen with the arianesin and the diral had registered it and were now relaying messages with comments. One of the first reactions from the stronghold was Copperspi...

Re: Writing Prompts

Thinking about the combination and effects of Loroi-Human bonding and sanzai: In both Beacons and New Frontiers we’ve been playing with unintended effects like broadcasting to all, or to Loroi with whom the protagonist has a special bond. The combination Human-Loroi is presumed to be more powerful, ...

Re: Writing Prompts

I’m also strugling with this addiction to humans sickness thing. It’s probably just love.

‘Is love a tender thing? It is too rough, too rude, too boisterous, and it pricks like thorn.’
— Shakespeare. Romeo and Juliet, Act 1, scene 4
