This story is a work in progress, and as such will not be updated regulary, and before I begin to write it, I must give a foreword of both influences and to dedication.
This story as it lies in my head draws it's influences from many different works of writing. From ancient poems such as the Illiad or Beowulf, to great classical plays and operas such as The Tempest or The Magic Flute, to high fantasy settings, such as the Lord of The Rings, or The Wheel of Time, and even all the way to modern day science fiction, such as the 2001: A Space Oddysey, or Dune.
And, this being the case, I dedicate this story to you. All of the you, the uncrowned kings and queens of writing, great people such as Shakespeare, Arthur C. Clarke, Frank Herbert, J.R.R Tolkien, Terry Brooks, Homer, etc. etc.
I dedicate this -amateur- story to all of you, my inspirations.
Secondly I dedicate this to AWR. For both putting up with me(barely) and for providing me with a haven for my serf level writing skill. I love you guys.
And finally, and, perhaps most of all; I dedicate this to the one person who gives me light where there is darkness, who gives me joy when I am depressed, even though she doesn't know that she does.
I dedicate this G.A.H., my muse, and perhaps the one person that I can talk to about anything, no matter how personal or embarrassing.
Yes I realize that her initials are kind of hilarious, get your laughs out ladies and gents.
To all of you, I welcome you to read and enjoy, as Alexander Sawyer presents.
