This is Scéal an Ghamhna Bhuí... which is "To Tell a Tall Tale" in the Irish Language. Consider it the Story Telling/Roleplay element of its parent publication, Hibernia on the Skids.
There have been many stories occurring here and there on these journals, my own Hibernia being no exception. Some of them have withered on the vine, some of them I have wished to get back to but find that the pace of life tends to keep me occupied with other items. By moving to a "Story Telling Journal", my goal is to keep things organized and running along various plot lines.
At the moment, there are a few plot threads ongoing, we will pursue them here.
- The Steelhead Adventures: Silver Poison Cycle, in which Hotspur O'Toole plays a small but important part
- The Exile of the Middlesea Fleet and rise of the Wrath Fleet taking up from the return of the battered Middlesea Fleet to the Departure of the Exiles .
- Occasional Visits with the big Darien Mason story.
- The Dark Secret of Pondicherry Castle, a webcomic, ongoing (2-3 episodes left)
- Ongoing Caledonian Story, MI-5, the military, big events, invasions, etcetera
- The Journey to Fusang, a very old thread that may be resurrected here, and also a webcomic.. already this is interwoven with the Silver Poison Cycle.
- The Cosmic Threat, a sprawling epic story set in Antiquity, the Second Life Sailing Federation, Caledon and Artificial Isle, spearheaded by Zatzai Asturias.
(yes, color coding will be applied to subtitles, to help people follow)
Unlike Hibernia, I will be open to other writers posting here, if they have a wish to. I really don't anticipate it as a team contribution story journal, as in the High Tea and Adventure Society, rather a place for people to drop in "connector posts" to posts on their own journals.
Still here? Great! I hope we'll have something out soon!
