Mae govannen!
Wow, that sounds so cool!
I have the attention span of a knat. Common knowledge. Anyway, this story has been bouncing around in my head for a while, and I finally got around to starting it. Unfortunately, due to the aforementioned condition, my updates will probably be pretty spaced out. I will try my best, however! Onward!
The first few chapters may be shorter than is my want, but I figured everybody would want as many updates as possible. I promise they will get longer.
Kudos to Lor for making me want to start writing again! Hannon le!
Okies, for those who have not read Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Trilogy (and you should, amazing books, though not for the prudish type, lol), the Cassilines are a sect of male warrior priests who take a vow of chastity (following their god Cassiel's example), and are totally kick-ass w/daggers and broadswords. Damn! I wanna fight like that! The Cassilines are the only thing I borrowed from Ms. Carey.
Anyway, reading the books just made me think of Lego, since the Cassiline priest Joscelin relies so heavily on his daggers.
And for anyone still reading this disclaimer who hasn't just said 'screw this' and gone on to the story, this is gonna get kinda long. Not the disclaimer, dolt, the story. I may, in the tradition of Tolkien, split it into several parts if it gets beyond long. I'm gonna try to keep it as accurate to movie- and book-verse as I can, but with OCs, it might get a little difficult.
I know it might be confusing at first, esp. since much of it takes place during an obscure footnote in the Silmarillion, but I will give some history lessons as I go. Just kiddin! Jeez! ::ducks as large textbooks are thrown at her:: Ok, so you get history in school! It ain't Tolkien, is it, people?
::runs out of room covering head w/laptop and dodging projectiles:: I own nuthin! I wish I did! Sexy elfie princies! Yummy!
