Good chapter. Zaros  tbh I didn't even know that Zaros was part of the second line of gods I thought there was another between Seren and himself and the elder gods. But yeah the story is interesting I like how it follows with the real story but you add good creative plot lines to the kinda dark spots that are not in the game and your writing is good as well  My prediction is that the story will continue to like where the game is at now with the gods returning and stuff. My plan is to move beyond events that are currently happening in game. I have an ending for the sixth-age in mind, I doubt it is were Jagex will take the story, but it is where my story will end. Oh and Zaros's relation to the Elder Gods is revealed in FOTG... actually most of the stuff I wrote is based on FOTG so far. I figured as much well I'm getting closer to FOTG and ROTM  Will be looking forward to hearing your ending for the 6th age since the current events in game really intrigue me. Tbh my prediction would be like all the gods dying and the world left to the humans, tazhaar, etc. |

I started work on chapter 4... It's written entirely from Seren's perspective. Chapter 5 will focus on Zaros again. Chapter 6 will be set much further in the future and chapter 7 will start off the story of Gielinor itself.

I just finished the prologue, I know that you didn't create Runescape, but it sounds quite interesting in your prologue. I think this will be a nice story of yours I'll continue each chapter now. And write like a mini review/response to each one. |

And write like a mini review/response to each one. If I created RuneScape I'd be a millionaire now But so far a lot of the story wasn't really based on confirmed parts of the RuneScape lore... Obviously the stuff so far is only mentioned in game (you don't actually get to witness the creation of the universe) so I had to fill lots of gaps for myself. The last two chapters are based on a few lines of game lore. |

I just read Episode 1. It was actually really interesting, and awesome. I just love the ideas of each God and how they separate to create individual worlds, and like it said in the episode that not one is perfect alone, but perfect together. Is Gielinor supposed to resemble Earth since Earth is basically all the Gods? But very nice writing and story telling I can't wait to read the rest |

It is the planet where the main story will take place... and it is most suitable for life out of all planets, so you could say in that way it resembles Earth. But there are other planets that could ressemble Earth. Like Teragard, which is the homeplanet of the humans and its description is very close to Earth. |

I really liked the Dragonkin's story. They sort of give me the impression of looking like Trandoshans, but I do like their story even though you said it won't continue. You should send this to the creators of Runescape once you're done and see if you can make money off of this I like how you're finishing backstories, and the before of a game. It's quite interesting. But so far this one is my favorite even though I read only three, but I really liked the story, and plot and the ideas. Good job! |

I am pretty sure I meant to say it will continue... they will actually play a larger role in later "seasons". And I do not think that sending it to the creators of Runescape would make me money. They can get very excited about fan content and they might share my stories (they actually shared a trailer video I made for the game once) but no more than that. Especially since I contradict some of the things in the original lore. |

In that way Gielinor is like Earth. |

So, I was hoping that I could write longer chapters later on, but for this season they will probably stay at about 3 pages per chapter. But once I combine the entire story it will still be like a book. I mean, the history of Gielinor has 6 ages (the fifth and sixth qre very eventful) and all of this takes place before the first age... so the time I finished the 6th age I will have quite a lot of pages in total... even with 3 pages per chapter.

But I can't wait to hear more about them. They are really cool. Least they are nice about fan content, and that's pretty awesome that they shared your trailer. They seem like good heart people. |

Good chapter I never really like Seren much in the game like Zaros, Bandos, Saradomin, Armadyl where all better imo. But you made Seren a good character so far in this story Looking forward to more Zaros though but ultimately Mahjarrat coming into the story will be cool after recently doing ROTM. I'm assuming you will end up getting to like Zamorak and the Mahjarrat |

I'm on Chapter 3 now and Zaros is a very interesting character. Once again the plot/story is excellent. I'm assuming Seren will be in later chapters I wouldn't mind seeing some dialogue from the two. But good chapter I'm really liking these alot, and I like how their not too short and not too long. It's a good length and quite entertaining. |

CBK, since you thought the Dragonkin looked like Trandoshans... here is some concept art from RuneScape about the dragonkin:  |

They are really cool. One of the game's moderators that shared it spent (or still spends, I'm not sure) lots of time in my clan (similar to guilds on SWTOR) talking about the game's lore (I'm in a lore clan). I'm not sure if he knew I as in that clan though, I never really talked to him. The other one that shared it was the one that made the piece of content I based my trailer on. |

You'll see what I mean when they are introduced... or when you do FOTG I guess... that might actually be earlier. |

I have a testweek this week, so I probably won't manage to get the next chapter up until the weekend (if not later). But there will be one more normal episode this season and the final two will be released at the same time as a season finale.

I just read the prologue and the first two chapters. It's pretty interesting and reminds me of a mix of Tolkien lore (the gods and planets) along with Avatar (the elements). Plus I'm sure it's fitting right in with the RuneScape universe. I like how chapter 2 included trivia at the end of it. And I pictured Kerapac speaking like Optimus Prime during one of his movie ending monologues at the beginning of chapter 2. |

I really enjoyed Chapter 4. I liked how it was a "diary" you could say, more like a first person perspective of Seren. I don't know much about her, besides from inferring from the text, but I really like her, she seems like a good character. I hope we get to see more from her, and I like how you portray each civilization/creature/world differently. Good Chapter |

I hope we get to see more from her, and I like how you portray each civilization/creature/world differently. Good Chapter Seren will certainly appear again. She is a character that is pretty central to the story... although not nearly as central as Zaros, who could be seen as one of the main characters. |
