My CP has been submitted, too! I gave in and reused a beloved old character of mine instead of making someone new.

Edit: Also, hey! It looks like we've made it to the second page of the DT. :)

That's great! I know you probably can't post it just yet, but I can't wait to read it and for this storybook to officially kick off.

Thank you so much Mage!!!!! Now that we've got all the CP's in, it's time to kick things off :) So I put the first post up!

I'm gonna be workin' out the details for the rest of this chapter's outline, but I have the deets for the next post assignment! I want it to be @AvantCoffee! (If you haven't read the post yet, Thea is the girl w/Master Lynn that Jay sees when they open the door, so she'd be the first of the group to hear the news).

The coming post will entail the following!
2. Master Lynn's original plan to send out their scouting team has to be completely scrapped in light of this new information. First point of discussion: do they even trust Jay? Do they belive him? Lynn gathers the team - Thea and the others along with Jay to discuss their next steps forward: if they have any hope of succeeding, they need to know what they're up against. Jay has a vague idea but only caught a glimpse of the army - but if it's anything like the troops that attacked his guild, then they'll be far outnumbered. They agree to send them out with Jay (who knows generally where to find the army) right away on a stealth and scouting mission to see what they're up against and come back promptly to prepare. In the meanttime, Lynn will prepare the others for battle, setting magical and non-magical traps around the guild, gathering weapons, etc etc. Velalis, the resident harpy-who's-stuck-there didn't sign up for all this human conflict and wants out, so she insists on going w/the scouting team to find a way out and get a head start. She was originally gonna go so she could get out of the guild and back to Ewhein anyway. Lynn objects at first but Vel is insistent, and the crew will need a skilled healer on hand in case of the worst, so she agrees. @AvantCoffee

You can also find this info and coding stuff in the SB collaboration pad here! :)

Once I get the rest of the outline typed up, I'll post it in here (spoilered for length ofc) for posterity and so we're all on the same page! :)

But yeah! If ya'll have any questions, throw them at me. As always, collabbing on posts is encouraged! So, Coffee, if you want me or anyone else to help you with your post, feel free to ask questions and draw on all of us for help! And we can work out times to work together :D

Also, don't miss the SB challenge for this! ;) Some of you are already almost done w/it, so don't pass up on those sweet, sweet storybook points.

Yeah, I had opened a new tab for posting these comments, so when I deleted the original post in the SB Badges & Challenges thread and I was told "This post no longer exists", I was confused until I realised you probably deleted it yourself. (I saw you had liked my post awarding the credits, so it wasn't unlikely.) XD

AH I EXIST!!

LEMME JUST

I've been totally swamped and really need to catch up on YWS stuff. I'll probably be able to read the first post this weekend! (ooh and Fea's CP now that that's up). Next week will be hectic for me because I have a big project due. I can see myself beginning to write Thea's first post either this weekend if I get enough time, or after next week has passed. Knowing me I'll probably want to start writing straight after I've read Jay's post, so that's what I'm counting on d:
