For some reason, Ian and Albee seemed really well developed, even though we didn’t get to see them for very long.

Yes! That’s exactly what I think as well!

@ellette-giselle

~Which character(s) did you find the most compelling/relatable/believable and why?

For me, I would say I related the most to Conrad. That’s probably because I’ve had doubts before, like him, and faced fears and uncertainties.

I would also relate to Julian in certain areas since I am kind of like him.

I thought that Dian was a…[Read more]

@liberty

Okay that makes sense.

That is totally how I plan to have this structured, but at that time, many of the men were hearing about God for the first time, and the Bible talks about leaders and teachers being strong in their faith and well rooted in belief before they teach.

@ellette-giselle

Not sure why…. but for some reason I’m not understanding this. Is there a typo…. or am I really crazy?

26 How is it then, brethren? Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for [a]edification.

@keilah-h

Thank you for the feedback!

@liberty

Sorry!!!

You should have chosen an MC as your favorite. They actually all survived this time. 😂

I was like, oh no, she’s gonna love him and he’s gonna die. (he’s my favorite too, so we can cry together)

@ellette-giselle

Okay…

I was not expecting that. Especially at the end of the book!!!! You just crushed my heart again by killing another favorite character…

Despite the heart-wrenching deaths of *sob* the prince and his friend…it was a great ending and I’m intrigued by this mysterious character who wrote the letter.

@ellette-giselle

NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭

I was utterly shocked…stunned…I even started to cry again!!!!!!

I said I hoped you didn’t kill him…..*sobbing*

That’s all I can say right now…

@whalekeeper

Wowsers. That’s a lot! Sounds fascinating, though.

I’ll try to find that article… I think it was in Jstor…

@rae

AHHHH! It’s perfect! I love it.

@keilah-h

I hope so too! It’s up to the others if they’re read for the next one.

Although, one question. Was the Christian prince the only one? Who’s gonna inherit the throne when the Emperor dies now? (Don’t tell me the priests have tried to make it so one of them will get it.)

Dietrich was sole heir. His brother died as a baby.

That is…[Read more]

Also I found a cute bookmark in the Ghibli book. <3

I have officially decided research is a cool hobby.

I just need a moment to share my excitement

Just got most of these in the mail!! My thesis is due in a month and I’m trying to figure out the film+psychology angle before I start writing. I now own all of these books besides Hollywood: The Oral History. I have very little time to read, but I’m already through with two of them. Now I can rec…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Common sence. Got it.

Thank you.

No girls fighting with broadswords as big as they are.

No boys wresting free of a group of well trained, armed men.

Short for Nicodemus. That’s all I will explain.

ahhh…. I think I see where you’re going.

@linus-smallprint

Oh, one other thing. @hybridlore says it seems unclear that the prince is dead. I don;t know if you saw our conversation, but if you did, what are your thoughts?

@linus-smallprint

Sure, he can try. He’s been trying for the last few minutes. It’s not going to do much good. He’s a sixteen-year-old kid against several temple guards.

They’re going to win.

On a side note, I wonder what the Priest’s motivations are (other than hatred of God). Seems like control over the people may be a big one, possibly w…

@hybridlore

Yes, I did!

I’m so sorry, I was swamped yesterday. I’ll get to it as soon as I can.

@hybridlore

Okay yeah, I can see what they think. I don’t really ever do “dead” characters coming back to life. That troupe drives me insane. I think I’ve only ever done it once.

I had another time when one character thought the other one was dead, but you were following both MCs, so you knew the truth. (kind of like with Julian and…[Read more]
