I have just made changes. Thank you, Shabakuk (kind comments, a good eye, and knowledge of the Last Unicorn!--I'm nearly swooning!). I have incorporated all your changes. Thank you again!

This is good with me, Artimidor, if you're good with putting it up.

Ah, good question, Artimidor! My initial impulse is to put them in with the Flying Animals. Do you think this would be a good place for them? I trust your judgment, wherever you think it best.

Yeah, that's probably the best section. It's not a monster, it's not a mythical beast (even though some believe that), it doesn't fit in the magical category, so Flying Animals is still best methinks.

Rayne, you may know this, but in case you don't:

A few years ago, Peter S. Beagle has published a short story set in the world of The Last Unicorn, featuring Schmendrick and Molly, among others, but not as protagonists. In fact, the narrator is a disarmingly likeable nine-year old (who wasn't even a twinkle in her mother's eye when King Haggard still reigned the lands). The story is called "Two Hearts", and is contained in a collection of Beagle stories called "The Line Between" (2006). Some of the other stories are brilliant, too, I think.

Ah, I was not aware! I must admit, my love of the book stems mainly from childhood, and besides a small dabbling of secondary texts on the book itself (mainly concerned with the dichotomy of morality/immortality and reality/fiction), I hadn't explored very far. I will have to pick up the collection you mentioned--though I must admit that, with the chill and darkness of autumn seeping in, my tastes have turned likewise.  devilish

Thank you, though!--I shall certainly add the piece to my list.  heart  And it is always nice to meet a fan of Mr. Beagle.

My favourite novel by Mr Beagle is 'Tamsin'. It's a ghost story, actually. So maybe even suitable for chilly autumn nights?

(I promise he doesn't pay me to say all this. I actually do like his stuff! Especially his short stories.)

Are Shabby and Dek the same person in my mind.  Strange.
20 May 2012, 10:38:19
Ah yes, forgot to point out to Shabakuk that Chapter 5 is ready for testing - will do so now!
18 May 2012, 09:35:51
I am pleased it is going well for you though Seeker ... can't wait to try it and die. :D
18 May 2012, 09:35:13
No, I didn't Seeker. :( I think it is Master Anfang who is doing the testing
18 May 2012, 08:30:42
Dek-   shoals is going very well.  Art is starting on chapter 6. A very important chapter.  Did you test chapter 5?

Waiiiiiit!   (Bard staggers back with a pile of Unfinished Projects so high her arms are trembling)  Let me stuff mine in there before you lock the room!  *looks guiltily around and snatches the Quenyss parchment off the top of the stack*

and throw the key into the deepest river we can find, or the midst of one of the volcanoes

Then I say we lock the Unfinished Projects room.  If Arti ever gets in there.... big trouble. rolleyes

I'm amazed you can see the Altario projects pile considering it is dwarfed by my unfinished projects. For which I apologise.
