Um... that was Cassius. Cassius used to be the vampire.

And LF, that's what PMs are for. You ask someone before you use their character.

Yeah, I apologize with regards to the Forsaken thing. I meant it in an abstract sense, and I'd more or less had the idea back when this started. It doesn't seem to be much of an issue, but if it is, I'm prepared to change it.

And yes, I was slightly worried about the whole Seoth thing as well. More or less, I just find it worrying that there's a god-binding spell running around.

Nalyd, Sliros just awoke. You're kinda putting words in my mouth. A lot of words.

Controlling other characters without their consent is generally frowned upon, at least around here. So I'd appreciate it if you could change that last post.

You really just can't get to those. And the locked doors don't hold anything worth the effort it takes to open them (assuming you're talking about doors in the tower proper).

A new version has been released, with a major bug fix... apparently, due to my own idiocy, an entire ending was un-reachable. Also, some weird problem with a while loop was located.

Download it at my site, or at the Database (it should be up soon, I just sent it to Tyran).

The revelers froze. Some were still pouring drinks into overflowing glasses, for their attention was focused on the sky. For lack of a better description, it had disappeared, replaced with an inky black void. The only light left in the villa came from the roaring fire, which now no longer roared.

A new figure stood in front of the fire. Despite being silhouetted by the flames, the denizens of Joth could clearly see every detail of it. Clad in a strange armor (it looked like it was made of giant lizard scales), the figure carried a staff with a scythe-like blade at each end. It wore steel boots and gauntlets, and from the way one gauntlet hung it seemed as if the figure was missing a finger. A gleaming steel helmet obscured the figure's face, and yet it seemed to amplify its voice.

"I am Sliros, God of the Forsaken!" the god boomed. He seemed to be content without adding anything else.

The onlooking crowd said nothing for a while. Then, Zeth took a tentative step towards the deity. He still looked a bit confused.

"No. We don't need a god right now," he said to the warrior, before turning to the crowd. "You hear me? We don't need a god! Nothing good ever comes of it!"

The crowd continued to say nothing. They were getting rather good at it. Somebody dropped a clay jug, shattering it and spilling a bit of wine.

"I'm telling you," Zeth continued, "first it's a bunch of promises about salvation, and before you know it, half of us are dead in a holy war! We can't let—"

"Silence, mortal." Sliros said, cutting him off. The god started to look around the villa, and he nodded. "This will do for a citadel. And as for you..." he trailed off.

The crowd stared at the imposing figure with something between awe and terror.

"You have been cast aside by all. By your families, your countrymen. Some of you by your gods," Sliros said, looking directly at Zeth. "And that has brought you to me. In this, you will not be forgotten. You will be redeemed in deed, renewed in body, and replenished in spirit. You will have new lives."

A few heads perked up upon hearing all of this, and most of the crowd had finally picked up its collective jaw.

"But you must be prepared to fight. There are some who would cast away the world itself if it did not act according to their desires, and it is these who have wronged you. They have wronged the citizens, city, and even the land beneath it," the god spoke, stabbing the tiled courtyard of the villa with his staff. With a loud crackle, the tiles were split apart, revealing a lush carpet of grass. A few moths descended upon the ground.

One particularly drunk reveler called out (somewhat sarcastically), "What do you wish us to do, almighty one?"

Sliros laughed, a sound which made most people's vertebrae sting. "I wish you to know that you are no longer lost souls in this life. You have not been abandoned. As for the rest... prepare yourselves."

The same drunk man called back, "For what?"

The god paused, and the silence threatened to drown the crowd. "I... I do not know. I awoke for a reason, but I do not know it yet. All I know is that the other ancients walk the earth again, and that could mean the end of an age."

And with that, Sliros disappeared. No puff of smoke, no flash of light. Just a single black moth, left fluttering above the fresh grass.

And I forgot to congratulate you. So, congratulations.

*facepalm*

Okay... so this is how it went. I named the town Barton. Then, you announced your scenario, including a screenshot with Upper Barton in it. I started cursing under my breath. Originally, you would've been able to see the town of Barton in SoG, but then I decided that it just made the outdoors unnecessarily large. So it got cut off.

And as for what I meant in that post, I meant that perhaps your Upper Barton was inspired by Barton (an original surface city)... in terms of story. At least, that would be a cool way for the two to connect. But honestly, it's only named Barton because I named it that early in the design process and didn't change it... no connection (or god forbid plagiarism) was intended.

Also, it's definitely going to make me catch myself when I exaggerate how mad I am at my suitemates about their unending drinking and partying.

The worst part is that the gunman shot himself... denying anyone a chance at justice (or revenge, whichever you see it as).

There's just some sort of serious logical flaw... I can kinda understand shooting one's self, or going on a rampage without killing one's self... but rampage + suicide = ?

Barton is the large town you "start" in during the splash screen. It was created completely independently of Upper Barton, though it may be inspired by the surface city for all I know.

And Stratton is the actual starting town.
