Here is the comments thread for The Royal Court Follies

This is envisioned as a three part sonnet, and there will be an illustrations thread drawn by the talented Houjun (with assistance from Sammygirl) as well. laugh

Now that is a real compliment. laugh It means the story has a natural rhythm that is easy to follow. I worried about that in a few spots.

THANK ALL OF YOU for the kind comments. laugh

Nice rockmower! I really am looking forward to part 2, and i want to tell you there is no rush, so dont overlook proofreading! It is funny, too! I laughed when the bard (you grin) was scareing the animals and annoying the people with your lyre! keep up the awsome poems! i can now see why you are the master poet!

A three part sonnet?? Please give us time between parts to let our ribs stop hurting from laughing.

That is awesome Rocky and I think you were harshly judged for your singing. I have heard that you have a good voice.

We will eagerly await part 2.

Maybe after the new game is found, the court will have to tweak certain parts, like the storyline wink ?

Part 2 is written, but on hold until the Court Illustrator can get the Illustration thread started in Fan Art. grin
First work held her back, now illness. cry

Thank you for the wonderful compliments 123isolagirl! blush

This was intended to be a funny poem that reflects the development of any new games, but I confess it was inspired with the announcement that they were working on VV4.

I'm not sure I understand the question you're asking at the end.
