Choose Zyreli's fate

  • 1) Through magic or steel, Zyreli's quest will when he draws his final breath in battle. 21%
  • 2) Let Zyreli meet his end unaware as he foolishly dies by the hands of a trap in one of the Towers. 14%
  • 3) A fate truly worse than death- enslavement. Zyreli was too weak to withstand the stronger forces of those who guard the Pages, and will spend a lifestyle in servitude of them, until age or starvation claims his life. 64%

Umm @AstralHunter and @TheClockworkConjurer what are the rules for posting? I don't know where they are, and I will need to know them before I make my first post.

I think the rules are on the sidebar of the SB, under the characters.

So they are, thanks! It says third person, but I prefer first person. Is that ok? And what does backwards and double posting mean?

Backwards writing is when you write from the past. In this SB we're writing is the present. Double posting means you post twice- of the same character- in the same hour. It doesn't apply to another character (if you have one).
Also, I think, first person is fine?

I count backposting as when you redo what was written in someone else's post just from your view and don't advance the story. You can normally wrote in whatever tense you want.

Also, if the rules say 3rd person it's common courtesy to write in 3rd person, it's for continuity of reading, also, 1st person tends to become too character centric.

@LordZeus, I think @Stegosaurus and @Auxiira answered your questions marvelously. As far as the order of posting goes, that is either at will or as arranged. Considering this is an elimination-style SB, the tendency will be to post as soon as possible.

But now I should start working on that promised post...

Little question: For Mira's post, can I say that she was at the Stomping Grounds too? Like watching Manelau's fight happen? Or would that be considered double posting?

That would be considered backwards posting (if you were to tell how she watches Manelau fight, since we already were at that fight), but she may for example hear people still talking about his fight, or be watching other fights. That is allowed...

Umm...I would still prefer first person. If it's a definite no as in it is completely not allowed, then I'll to third, but If possible I'd prefer first.

@Stegosaurus, 30 points have magically appeared under Mira's name. ;)

@Chaser and @Halfbloodcheetah, are you still with us? Things progress quickly here in Storybook Town, and your silence worries me...
