That wasn't even the best reference though. I gave a shout out to dear departed Arya. It was basically that line in Seagal movies where the camera just zooms in on him and the music goes DUN DUN.
Honestly, it's like SV isn't sending me their best. I mean some of you are good people - I assume - but the rest of you?

Query: Four Year Anniversary?
Four months from now on February 27, 2017, ADOTN will have reached it's four year anniversary. It's a long time to have run this quest with you buggers, and I wouldn't trade a minute of it for anything in the world (Well, maybe the Banner/Sigil Wars that @Tel Janin just tried to raise again in the Valyria spinoff).
Four year is a hell of a run to have, I think. There's marriages that don't last that long. University degrees, that take less time.
A hell of a run.
Which is why there's a part of me wondering, if I shouldn't hold off until February, to drop the last update of ADOTN-
Put down the weapons, and hear me out.
Just hear me out.
Four years. That's a hell of a run.
A run that deserves the biggest close out it can get, a titanic 10,000 words long update detailing just every bloody moment of the Final Battle For The Dawn.
A run that deserves the epilogues to drop right after the final update, instead of waiting around for weeks as I write them.
I'll of course still be writing in between February and now. ADOTN: Valyria is up and running for those unaware. Paths Unwalked has been waiting on me for a while to fulfill some particular requests. And of course there's Leech Lord, which is just waiting to see how Droose walks into another disaster of his own making.
All good stories, I think.
I think Leech Lord can come to it's own end soon. Valyria is a shorter quest than ADOTN. Unwalked is serials as requested. Closing out all those chapters by February 27... there's a certain appeal to it.
But this isn't about me, or just me rather. You're the players, you're the readers. The saga of Jon Stormcrown and the shenanigans of Droose McCreepy wouldn't have come about with you all.
So I want to take an informal poll as it were, ask for your blessings or hear your misgivings.
Should I do this? Would you be happy if I did this?
Let me know, guys.

Can't believe it has been almost four years. I have mixed feelings about this quest ending.
I wouldn't mind having a mini hiatus. This quest deserves a proper send off.

As long as Jon gets off the god damned boat in the end, I'm happy with waiting. It'll make the grand finale that much grander.

What's this about a boat?

Ah, a reference to Berserk and the author's twenty-something year hiatus wherein the protagonist was on a boat for plot reasons. Fans of the series often refer to hiatuses as being boat trips.
> doesn't get Berserk boat meme
> complains about people not getting his memes/references
Droman, I just have one thing to say: git gud.
On ADOTN's anniversary, I can't lie and say it won't sting to wait so long, but I'm aware you wish to make it a fitting end for your opus magnum. So go ahead, no one will begrudge you.
But please warn if or when you'll hold the last rolling session. Because I'm sure some people would like to partecipate in our last offering to the Dice Gods.

Ah. I thought it was a reference to Gendry from the show.
I think I'll occasionally pop into Rolz and ask for mystery rolls, to keep the suspense high as to how it's all actually going.

On an unrelated note, is that adorable pup in your avatar yours? And is their name Ghost?

Just a random pic on imgur I thought was adorable. I'm both too poor and too irresponsible to care for a puppers.On an unrelated note, is that adorable pup in your avatar yours? And is their name Ghost?
