This is the problem you face when dealing with advanced and writing the bear minimum. Being the initial poster is a high burden. Not only does it set the tone for the entire round, but it also provides an example for those who are afraid to post first. I was intending on being the first poster, unfortunately you beat me to it. But it is whatever.
Anyway, time may be given, but I simply did my post differently. Just because we take a different approach doesn't make your post any less relevant.
Finally, there will be no compromise. If these irritations persist, I might be required to melt your character's face.
Anyway, I'll be waiting.

You'll never beat me to post first my friend, I write too quickly and don't bother with pointless filler unless it gives me an advantage. Hence an axe and supplies bought legitimately cheaply -cough-.

What is this business about "pointless filler?" I hear this a lot on forums in various situations.
This is a creative writing forum, pointless filler does not exist. Look at the books written by R.A. Salvatore and J.R.R. Tolkien; two of the greatest fantasy fictions authors to have ever graced anyone's shelves. These books are filled with what might considered pointless filler and whomever considered it that would be terrible mistaken. Every tiny bit of information serves a purpose. That bit of information may set the mood, show a character is a different light or further examine the usual light, explains how the character reactions to others, or how others react to the character, or it does the more broad spectrum of building the world. This is why good fiction is generally so long, because you can't simply say Allaria and expect people to know everything about it as if you were saying Chicago or New York.
This is why so many will remain role players, with their names written in sand to be washed away by the tides and so very few will be able to carry out the task of writing their names in stone, on a front of a book that they have written.

Cool story bro
Shhhhh, sweet children...
I was tempted to post this.
Decided the ensuing argument wasn't worth it. Coming from me that's fairly intense.
Nice animation in your sig btw. Like a Sir.

Why, thank you.
Shhhhh, sweet children...
Yeah, y'know, Dorian, I've noticed you have a bit of a flair for the dramatic. Have you considered a job as a political talk show host? I don't mean like Stephen Colbert. I mean like the guys that are legit serious about it and looking to inform instead of entertain. Your intensity would serve you well there. Or as a public speaker.
Anyway, post is up! Here's the summary...
-Markith watches with barely disguised horror and disgust as the drow is tortured, then resolves to one day kill Fairst and Mirya's child. He then goes to meet with the others in Fananatu's quarters. Also introduced is Markith's opinion of Fananatu, which is fairly low and untrusting.

Like another Rush Limbaugh?

Yeah, kinda...just take away the whole "being a dick" part.
