All my writing powers...EUGH! *Pees pants.* Two posts...in twenty four hours...AUGH! *Farts a little.* 
And also, even though it doesn't mean a whole lot from me, to Dark Jack and Ashgan, those where some pretty solid initial posts. I just sorta feel like I dumped my shit all over them.

Thanks, yo. I kinda like your posts too; particularly the background story surrounding the, what I assume to be, plot to torch a city, or at least part of it. I would probably use less capslock when writing dialogue, honestly, but otherwise the lines were good. Dampsey sounds stock british when I read him.

[b]Edit:[/b] The memory of assassination in your character sheet is also written rather well, I enjoyed it quite a bit.

[@bobert778] How does Pick not realize that he actually has the eponymous object stuck in his back? Did he never think to reach back and see if something was causing his pain? Kind of a miracle he can walk at all; not gonna be fun when somebody finally decides to pull it out.

I find this map he has quite intriguing. Presuming that he had it before he even died, and that it does actually match the lay of the land here, it would imply that the land betwixt shares a geographical similarity to the real world - which is a significant revelation. If we entertain this thought, it could allow us to learn a bunch of things about the things we see, simply by drawing a parallel to what would be their equivalent in the world of the living. If, you know, we actually knew anything about that world, as it were, which we don't. Oh well. I still like to consider it and, if it turns out to be true, then NewSun could easily lead our characters to encounter familiar places, or rather their twisted reflection in the mirror.

[b]Edit:[/b] I guess, in general, it's an interesting prospect to consider the world that our characters come from. By looking at our various memories, we can clearly see that we have a rather colorful setting with rather varied peoples in it, stuck in very different stages of technological and societal progression. Granted, I still haven't read all sheets or posts (we have a huge amount of people here, all who write in copious amounts), but from what I can see so far, we have civilizations on one hand who would be considered modern at the time, with fully developed cities (like Hobbleston maybe, or the white-spired metropolis from the Oblivion Songstress), professional armies, apparently magic of some kind in certain places, and even ingenious little inventions like helmet lamps. On the other, we have places like where my own character comes from or the barbarians mentioned in Riley's sheet, that are reasonably primitive hunter-gatherer tribes, who are just recently grasping the art of building things like shelter or boats. We even have wild places in the countryside where slavers have free reign and justice seems a faraway thought. Plots of assassination are ripe, and neither the heathen whore, nor the careless king are safe from the murderer's blade. Wars of ideology, religious and otherwise are fought.

And here we are, knowing very little of any of that, as we must contend with the horrors beyond time and reality, as they prey upon our flesh and our minds. Ramble over.
