Nearby, he saw Rolf lying on his side, his shoulders jerking with silent, tearless sobs. Leon couldn’t blame him.

😭😭😭

@ellette-giselle

Okay. I’ll mention the ink just for you.

Aw. Thanks!🥰

you might not see one of them ever again.

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NONONONONONO!! Okay, if you have to kill one of them…pick Roland…please…I already like Rolf way too much since he got whipped in the face…and I now know a character who understands what that feels like…

@ellette-giselle

Hassan struck him across the face with his horse whip. Rolf bent, gasping from the pain, his hand pressed to his face.

OH MY GOSH!!!!! OW. OW. OW!!!

I know that’s like!! Except a cow delivered the lash to my face…

I can totally feel what Rolf’s feeling right then!!! *sob* SO cruel, Ellette!!!! Do you have any idea how much p…[Read more]

 “There is only one god you need to worry about, and that is me: Hassan Salim.

You’ve got to be joking. Hassan is my father’s name…only it’s written with one “s”: Hasan.

@ellette-giselle

Nooo….. they are brought in by the traders. People of the Empire are NEVER sold as slaves

Maybe saying something about that, then? I wasn’t sure if the people were a different people group. I would think they look different than Aryan..because that’s what the People of the Empire are.

Does it need to?

I think it may be good to m…[Read more]

“It looks like a lot of somebodies,” the leader snarled.

😂 Hilarious line. 😂

@ellette-giselle

Julian rifled about in his pack for their cooking pot and handed it to Aelic. “Go and get some then, but for goodness’ sake don’t you fall and sprain your ankle.”

Aelic’s probably used to running around the forests…I could just see him bare-footed, dashing among the trees with his hair flying about!

@ellette-giselle

Roland smiled and nodded.

Rolf leaned forward in excitement. “What did you say?”

Roland flushed again. “Well, a few things. The important thing is, I asked her to wait for me.”

Rolf’s eyes widened slightly. “And?”

“And she said she would.”

I feel like at least one of the other characters should be saying something here. I…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

YES!!! Help please! I’m dying under all this writing! *gasp* *head rolls off…*

I’m so behind again. Maybe you could wait a day or two for me to catch up?

Oh yes. I understand what you said to me about Leon’s past.

@ellette-giselle

Any thoughts on that?

Hmm…well, I was a tad bit surprised by how sharp Leon was with Julian. I don’t know their past friendship well…but I wasn’t expecting Leon to react to Julian like that…like just closing the conversation. I thought he seemed to be a very open character, especially as a Christian…but maybe some things…[Read more]

@theducktator

Thanks! It’s my first…and I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out. After thinking about it, though, I think I will add some pictures and edit some of the words. Guy has two sides of himself. and the board doesn’t really show the second side of him…so I’m thinking of updating it.

@elishavet-pidyon

Sorry…I looked for the Susan story but couldn’t find it. I found some others, but none of them compared to the one I read. It was short, but very beautiful, sweet, and Christian.

If you like, I can retell what I remember of the story.

@ellette-giselle

Ooh…we’re getting to see a little bit of Leon’s past!

So wait, are the only people at that place students? I don’t see much mention of villagers during that winter season. If there were villagers, did they move into the University as well?

Is their inn connected to the University? Because in that deep of snow… amid a b…[Read more]

Me too!

@hybridlore @elishavet-pidyon @ellette-giselle (In case you were wondering about Guy as well)

Here’s somewhat of a summary:

A man searching for redemption from his past…
 
A band of outlaws trying to make a difference…
 
A land twisted and poisoned by its cold-hearted rulers…
 

Guy is a young man living with a deep inner…

@ellette-giselle

Well, your moodboards did show that.

@ellette-giselle

Well, I’m guessing someone is going to get thrown into a colosseum. You have five guys there…some of them are bound to get hurt…or killed. It just has to happen.

@ellette-giselle

Ahhh!!! I remember now! Thanks for showing that verse to me. I’m all caught up. Finally. I’m hoping not to get behind in the future because then you have to read a lot more!!!

@hybridlore

Nope. That was the one instrument I longed to play…but am pretty sure I won’t. It looks SO hard! Plus, I already play the piano and ukulele and am planning to pick up the guitar this year.

So, yes, playing the violin is one of my never-to-be-fulfilled-unless-God-intervenes dreams.

@ellette-giselle

“Why? Who’s going to read it?”

Wasn’t Julien journaling as well? Maybe he should say something else?

Leon was watching Julian with astonishment. Never had he heard him give such strong and quick responses in an argument like this.

This is by far the most interesting part I’ve read!!!! I love it!

Julian lunged and grabbed the stu…
