I'm going to start with a huge thank you for your incredible review. It's just amazing to me to have someone who isn't familiar with the fandom dive right in and tackle this monster of a story. It's not even until Chapter 9 that I actually begin on game content, these first chapters being my notion of a back story to help it all make sense.
As I've said before, it's hard dealing with game fandom characters who are often expected to be somehow larger than life to cope with the plot line. I tend to think it's the flaws and how a character copes with them that can be more appealing, and that's where I have tried to go. If I've succeeded, then I'm delighted, but if I haven't, I know you'll let me know and that's even better.
I'm even happier that I am managing to make the fandom intelligible. I really did want to try and avoid the huge infodump that can occur, and there's the corresponding issue of being so familiar with a 'verse that I can forget to mention certain things. Obviously, so far, so good, but do poke if I get vague or overly informative.
And again, thank yo so much for reading and reviewing.
