Othaglot and Cane - Story Thread

[dogscoff]

Dammit I hate it when I do three Posts in a row, especially in my own thread! It makes me look like a right sad muppet.

I've just finished writing chapter 11, but I won't be posting it now because it's late and I'm too tired to put it into HTML.

Anyway, there are things I'd like your opinions about:
-Early in the story ppl said that Othaglot was useless and Cane was doing all the clever stuff. Has that been turned around now? I want it to swing back and forth.

- Did Cane's "Pretend Diplomat" revelation make you lose respect for him? Did you even notice it? Does he seem more like a rounded character now he has a few weaknesses?

-Is there too much emphasis on "background knowledge?"

- Is there anything at all in the story that's confusing or nonsensical or unrealistic?

It's really hard for me to read the story myself and answer these questions, but if I can get some answers from you lot I'm sure I'll be able to make the story a good one. I'd really appreciate it if anyone who has read it so far could comment on the above points.

Thanks very much.
