TA'AVEREN 1/2: TALES OF THE RONIN
---
by John Walter Biles (rhea@maison-otaku.net)
 and Jeremy Blackman (loki@maison-otaku.net)
{munch!}
Somewhere in all that, T1/2 got lost and I never really found the
motivation to restart it.  Every few months, someone would send me a note
asking if it would ever get done (usually White Wolf) and I'd give them
some sort of brush-off.  I got a bit creative at the brush-offs.  (White
Wolf also got creative with some of his threats, as I recall.)

Finally, I decided it was time to sit down and rewrite the fourth chapter. 
I really don't like some of what I have as the draft right now, so I'm
tossing part of it.  I'm hoping to have chapter 4 finalized within the
next three weeks or so, pending proofreading by Biles in his position
as coauthor.

Additionally, I went back and rewrote chunks of the first three chapters;
I corrected all the places I could find that the originals had mistakes,
cleaned up some of the scenes in the second and third chapters, and
changed John and my e-mail addresses to current ones (albeit not ones
we're on the list under).  When I post chapter 4, I'll post the revised
editions of the first three chapters, as well.

I figure if Kimagure Orange College can lurch back to life after
God-knows-how-long between episodes (wasn't that originally considered one
of the signs of the apocalypse?), I might as well *finally* get the next
part of Ta'averen 1/2 out.  (Stop gloating, you two.  And you know who you
are.)

Thou'rt wise, sirrah! Ne'ertheless, thy name shall be added to the growing 
ranks of the Taskmastered authors!! HAHAhaHAhahaHAhaHAHAha!!! ^_^
