I'm confused.

Where—and what—is the South Gate? First it was called the South Gate of Dunburrow, thus implying it was the border of the country, but as the roleplay progressed, it continued to grow closer and closer to Castle Kestrel.

So, now I must wonder, is it the South Gate of the castle, the capital, or the country itself?

Please, please, PLEASE clarify this for me soon so I can focus on getting the summary's fifth chapter up tonight and not any later than that. I'm also not sure if I'll be able to find any responses in this thread, so, yeah, PMs would definitely be better for me. :)

Thanks.

I assumed it was the southern gate in the castle's outer wall -- one that would enclose the bulk of the Knights' guild (all the halls and turrets and such, basically the main building). It seemed to work with most of the roleplayers' posts, anyway.

... Although I think some people may have been confusing "Dunburrow" with the name of our capital city, which probably contributed to the confusion.

For future referrence, and because I do know this much:

Dunburrow is a country. A town called either Falcorum or Palisade (we haven't decided yet, so it would be best not to mention it by name in the roleplay) is our capital city. Smack dab in the middle of said town is Castle Kestrel, otherwise known as the Knights' Guild.

Well. Um. I'd go with the south gate of the capital, myself. That's what seems most likely, though the south gate of the castle would also make sense. I don't know. Choose one.

I've pictured Castle Kestrel being at the center of Dunburrow, and the south gate would actually lead into the village of Dunburrow. I'm not sure if it's accurate, but it's what i'm going with right now. ^^;

Except the capital is a bit big to have a fruit garden like Kit added. At least, that's how I see it. The gates would lead directly to the city, yes, but probably to major roads/sections of it. I guess one of those areas could be a fruit garden, but that's more likely to be by the city gates.

I've actually always imagined the Capital to be set up a bit like Minas Tirith is in the Lord of the Rings movies, with multiple walls coming out of a towering mountain like ripples in a lake, with the castle built into the side of the mountain. However, I think it was unanimously decided at some point that the castle didn't butt up against the base of the mountain, so then I imagined the city sitting at the mountain's base (I've also always imagined the mountain being in the north...rather feng-shuish, if I do say so myself, in the Tortoise position; I think the Phoenix position is on the east, and then the Tiger and Dragon are on the other two sides...but it's been a long time since I studied Feng Shui, so I'm almost certain I'm wrong. In fact...oh, never mind. I'm rambling).

I've actually come to think that the South Gate is somewhat of a village all itself, one that has grown up outside the southern gate of the inner city (maybe the center wall). Perhaps there's a greater wall around it, one perhaps aged and crumbling, like Stonehenge. ^_^ I think something to this end--South Gate being a village on the city's south side--would fulfill everyone's descriptions that I've read thus far, so that could work and is probably what I'll go with.


And...well...I've been pushing the parameters of time a bit in the summary. Although it's implied that Kit sent his message to everyone the same night he's meeting them at South Gate, it makes more logical sense if he's meeting them the night after, as it was already late in the evening when he sent it in the first place. And not everyone can teleport and/or fly down on turbo-charged spacecrafts, so it'd have been a rather narrow-minded plan to only allow people a couple hours' time to reach him, you know? The fact that not all scenes are occurring in real time (thus, some are temporally behind others, such as Shino and Tamia's scene compared to, say, Kit's progression to South Gate) tends to complicate this. If I had the time, I'd make a second summary in chronological order, but I fear the plot holes and inconsistencies of such would too much for my feeble mind to ponder and I'd end up in an asylum, perhaps in the bed next to The Blonde. At which, I particularly loved Evan's line, "Maybe until I'm dead, okay?"

Oh, and, Shino, d'you think your 'ship with Evan could have a third seat for me? xD

Gosh, I miss being active. -_-

Lost internet last night and couldn't post

And I'll be busy for the next few days

So it might be awhile before I can post again

xDDDD I like it when my villain's entrance gets interrupted by three beings and an almost-choreographed chain of attacks.

Hey Zari, your last post was a little confusing, but was it saying that Spacefleet!Zari met up with Zaha outside Castle Kestral? I'm currently assuming that's what happened. If not, please let me know, preferably real soon as I'm about to put it in my next post.

And thanks, Rikku.

*coughs* For your information, I haven't done anything. ^_^

And I'm trying to decide whether to use the dragonpower for starting a miniature star inside Subila to turn her into ashes before she could blink or bringing Vyt back. So far, I like the first one better.

[Omni]

Okay, after that post Zari just made, I'm almost certain I got the situation wrong. Thing is, I can't tell what just happened. Zari, could you please clarify what Zaha just did? It's like he just came out of Castle Kestral when she bumped into Spacefleet!Zari, suggesting that Zari went to the castle instead of the Manor, and then it said that Zaha went and told Knight!Zari that she was going to the manor, which, I believe, is miles away from the castle. So did I misinterpret something you wrote, or what?

[zarikrahia]

I was half-asleep when I wrote one of those posts. And my brother was nattering at me. and stuff

Zaha got very scared, and started running. FROM THE DEATH. Managed to run about a mile, then ran straight into S!Zari. She had a scary fit and ran off, located k!Zari, and did a running jump onto her horse.

I'm putting together s!Zari's reaction at the moment.

[Omni]

Ah, okay. I guess that works.

*goes to edit her post and realizes that half of it is missing* How did that happen?! It cut off mid-sentence! *goes to re-write*

Oh, don't get me wrong, I plan on joining!

Just as soon as I finish the summary, or rather, get current with it. ~_^

I've already planned my entrance and my "excuse" for not being present (nudges location and signature...that are obviously not here since I'm too lazy log in for half a minute before I go back to summarising xD), and I've even gotten a bit o' my first post written up already. 'Tis over two-thousands words, and it's not even the half of it!

Oh, and I love what you've done with Shiva. :) I can't wait to put in Sora. You'll never see what's in store for her. Mwuahahaha...ha. *grins*

Well we wouldn't want to deprive Wolf and I of our dignity, now would we? ;)

If someone could clue me in to what happened to where I was and the short-shorty-short-short version of Wolf's incredible summary I would be eternally grateful. My cold has not been lenient, but finally I can type my replies if I know where my persona and Evan Forest are.

WhA?! 0.0

I mustn't have read/interpreted that right o.0

You're not... couldn't be... well I guess it could be, you do after all spend a lot of time with...

I'll just wait for the post XD

edit: People are going to interpret this in as many ways as Wolf's sneak peak hint things could be interpreted I'm sure XD.
