“It’s a record. Dharin and Lytt were here until an hour ago.” The man with the long coat tapped the page, then turned back to Lytt’s entry and handed the book over.
“Just an hour?” Virtus asked, shaking his head. He quickly noted that the man carried many strange apparatuses that looked like they could be used as weapons. (?) Best be caref…[Read more]

Virtus took the book from the lad, noticing the insecurity in his eyes. This one had a past that troubled him. Just like everyone else on the planet, Virtus thought.
“I was looking for any maps or clues about this place. The most effectual means of finding a way out would be to accumulate resources and systemize a strategy based off that.” The l…[Read more]

Wow. Thanks for your feedback! It’s very helpful. For most of your questions, I can only say that it’s a simplified version. The real version has more details and much more flowery language.
Oh, I see! Thank you! And whoa, your real version must be super long! 😀

Virtus smiled softly, glancing over Nithel and Alessio. “Nice to meet you. Sorry, but I don’t know the meaning of Nithel. Does Virtus really mean virtue? I was always told it meant strength.” Virtus shrugged, not waiting for a reply, though Nithel could have given one. “And yeah, Fidus means trustworthy. Or stalwart. Or pretty much everythi…[Read more]

The man’s hand was raised just above shoulder level, palm outward. Virtus took it as a greeting. “Virtus, Virtue; son of Fidus, Trustworthy,” the man said, and Virtus furrowed his eyebrows as he sorted through the string of words. “I am Nithel, son of Father.”
Aren’t most people sons of their father? Does his father not have a name? Or is he like…[Read more]

“I’ve never had a friend before,” Alessio said warily “how does it work?”
Nithel’s chest ached in a yawn. His jaw tightening the smallest bit. How awful.
I will not leave you. But before he could say it, and so much more, Alessio’s gaze was focused behind him.
Nithel turned his head, neck stretching and following. It was a man. Virtue[Read more]

“It seems the lad answered your question for me, my good Virtus.” The man turned to him with a smile. Virtus was still puzzling over the young man’s outburst. Caution would probably come in handy here. He sighed. He hated caution. “You are indeed in my uncle’s castle,” the man continued. “I am, as you presumed, ‘in charge’. My name is Comma…[Read more]

Alessio stared at Nithel a bit. As if he couldn’t believe the man didn’t know what writing was. Nithel’s brows furrowed moreso. Perhaps Alessio came from a place where the leafed squares were common, and the symbols on them.
Nithel felt a strange feeling wash into his heart, and he rinsed it quickly. I don’t need to know everything, if Alessio…[Read more]

Cathy: “Muslims not being as bad as they’re made up to be”

Ok, sorry that took so long but I’ve (finally) compiled some of the reasons Catholic priests are celibate. One of the reasons is, like you said, to focus more on God than a prospective wife.
