    Fawn, I don't think I've ever told you how awesome is that Frost Moon poem, but golly gosh.

    Aw thanks Rancid! It was heavily inspired by Tolkien's rather famous poem about Strider! I did my best to make sure it flowed just as nicely as that one did, though this obviously pales in comparison to Tolkien's, haha!

    UPDATE:

    No chapter this weekend, just too busy right now, and a section of it needs rewriting and fine-tuning. So expect a chapter next weekend for sure! =) Finishing up some classes, afterwards hopefully I'll have plenty of time to devote my attention to Frost Moon and the Vault.

    Now that you mention it, I can definitely see the resemblance in metre! I'm far from an expert on poetry, but I say completely sincere, I think it doesn't pale in comparison to Tolkien's at all.  If it turned up in LotR, I wouldn't find it any different in quality than the other poems.

    I'm glad you decided to give this update a pass rather than push yourself despite your classes. Biology is super tough - it is definitely a good idea to commit your energy to it and get it out of the way.

    Chapter Twelve is up, and TOC has been updated a little. I added one new image.
