"Your Father's already had to take your other siblings to task on that, don't make me tell him that you haven't learned from their mistakes."

"I'll stay here, thank you." He sounds so obstinate, as if he truly does want to sink. He looks at me reprovingly. "I do." He sighs, weary as ever. "I've died. It's time I rested with those who've already gone ahead."

"There's enough fear in yer heart for what would happen if ye botched this up. Pray that it stays that way."

My brows draw together. "There's a song... in my head. They want to stop it." Another shudder goes through me. "They keep me quiet for their master. I don't know his name--"
"Don't try to. I already do." The Captain sounds more on edge than he has before. I wonder if he has a history with this nameless foe.

He's paler. Sickly, like Elete. And...
Slowly dying, just like Elete was.

And now for the news portion:
First off, The Peacock King Trilogy is drawing to a close rather soon here. No worries: the story does continue! We seem to have ended up in a bit of a HG2G-type situation, and it looks like we'll be going for a while longer. Like, um, a pretty good chunk of a while longer. As soon as this book (Book 3) is finished, Irk will be taking a break from posting, but we've got plenty of material to carry us through her hiatus, never fear.
Part of the time spent in hiatus will be used to focus more on revamping the site. We're going to be a major overhaul, and hopefully it will be all in the background. Some of that work has already started, which is why the forums are down for a bit. They'll be back up soon, though. I promise I'm not getting rid of them!
Thanks for coming along on this ride with us for so long, and we hope you enjoy the rest of it as well. We're certainly looking forward to it!
