[QB]Hi Tbontob.
The real reason I killed of Ruatha is quite simple.
In my single player Games I always called my race's leaders for Ruatha.
When I started Newbie Galactic Combat I for some reason didn't.
When I started writing I didn't think of this but then I started getting in-game Messages adressed to Matriarch Elyssandra.
So I had no option but to change leader someway to make the game and the story consistent.

I'm planning on developing Elyssandra some and Thurya more. So from now on Thruya is the real "main" character.
I don't know why I suddenly stand with alot of female characters and a shortage of male ones.
And I hope the "Respodner" doesn't get killed in the coming combats. Their first combat was a small one and a victory. More on that in next episode though. But I suspect there will be lots of battles in the future, now that I'm at war.

About your story.
I do find it amusing.
I really liked their addiction/fear of bubblebaths! (I actually laughed for real when reading it!)
Some elements though I belive are too obvious, as to what will happen I mean. But I'm not sure (Thinking of the future death of a certain official who is spending alot of money...) if I'm right though??
My favorite name is Loy Al tew deBone, I would like it if he proved to be a traitor, but on the other hand that would also be too obvious!
And will the reverse engine tech lead to something ? I can't wait for this revolutionary tech to be finished!QB]

I wondered why Ruatha was killed! I can see the necessity of it.

I look forward to seeing how your "new" characters respond to crises.

As to comment on what will happen to the certain official and Loy Al tew deBone will be to let the cat out of the bag.

Up till now, I have been inputing my stories into the little screen on the PBW site. There were a number of problems with this, the most current one being there was no "save" feature. With the family crisis, I didn't have a large enough block of time to write the next chapter of the story.

So, I am going to do something different and write in Word and then post it here. I will also post it on the PBW site, but as you know there is the problem of the PBW site messing up the punctuation. My plan is to provide a link from the PBW site(if it can be done) to this site for the readers who look for the story at the PBW site.

I am hoping this will work. Consequently, my next chapter will probably be quite short as a part of its purpose will be to test to see if this will work.
