Is th battle at mount doom going to be added or is that going to be book 3? Knowing it won’t be the same as the first one.

Question is because I also read v2.

[The Author Guy]

That is still up in the air.

My sort of preference at this point is to put in book 3

1) because it will delay the book quite a bit more to add it; it’s another 70-100 pages
2) the time passage will sort of take the other “cliffs/wrap up points” past their expiration date in terms of time.
a) if I go through the battle, Hilda will have to explain herself to Jenn
b) Damien/Gastrope’/orcs will have to sort things out and there is a lot there as Gastrope’ finds himself on both sides of a conflict (the elves are not going to play nice with anyone in Mount Doom)
c) Talarius and Ruiden will be reunited and either (try to) kill Tom before the battle, or join him in battle or just sit there and sulk

Looking for feedback from you guys on this.

See Rosver’s comments on this as well as others.

Rogues & Asmeth are gone from beta 3[/quote]Ah, started with 2, endet with 3 (went back and read the ending of 2).
[quote=The Author Guy;2619]6.1) Bingo. They go back and forth/they take turns. No one knows this. And they are very close.[/quote]Good. I did not imagine things.

[quote=The Author Guy;2619]But it’s basically a very powerful magical warship capable of inter dimensional travel. Think of it as a “magical” nuclear submarine that can impose Oorstemothian Law around the Multiverse, the same way US nuclear subs and carrier groups do around Earth. Same game plan.

They could, for example, cruise up next to the Courts or Mount Doom and open fire, much like US ships do with Tomahawk missiles and such.[/quote]I wonder how the safety features are handled in that ship. Could it be acquired/boarded?

[quote=The Author Guy;2619]Wish from a djinn? We start to explore that in beta 2, see Randolf and Crispin. We are just getting to know them and their rules.[/quote]So far we saw two bonded Djinns, both to rulers. Is that an coincident?
Also: Limits to wishes, would be the first thing I asked an Djinn if I got one, just saying. And with Tom wondering about the TV-Series he would not be out of character to ask.

[quote=The Author Guy;2619]>Avatars and lies. Yes, this is a big issue that is coming to the fore; it’s all going to get tested as both Hilda and Talarius will have to reevaluate their allegiances over the course of the next couple books.[/quote]Hmm, at the moment it only sounds like there is one bad Avatar…

[quote=The Author Guy;2619]Tizzy has a book that he used to write in (a lot). He has misplaced it; but fortunately it’s very hard to open.

There is a book in Astlan that had been lost, but is now found, but very hard to open. It has something of interest to both Demons and Conjurors in it.[/quote]I would still like to hear (in book) what Leanamare thinks he has. So we can later see his face when he knows what he exactly had. (Somehow I don’t think, the book is exactly what he is thinking. Unless Tizzy’s written word is for some reason better to understand than his spoken word).

[quote=The Author Guy;2619]Sentir Fallon/Egyptian guys:

See [url=http://www.astlan.net/Home/History/Timeline.aspx]timeline[/url]

-630 Post Vargosian (currently we are in 440 PV) so Rangers of Torean first show up on the doorsteps of the Egyptian guys about 1070 years ago. You can follow that in the posted timeline.

Orcus was slain in Etterdam (different calendar) in -3587 PV or 4027 years ago. 500 Years or so before the website timeline starts. Ragnarok happened several centuries before that.[/quote]
So the treatment of the Egyptians could have been because of the corrupting influence?
If yes, do the Egyptians know? If again yes, do their revenge plans include Lilith?
