Earth stones. They're hard to get.

Now if this was a Human Elf Alliance of love and harmony that somehow came to be because an enemy from nowhere ganked Brimir nad Sasha together doing something heroic and there was still a bottleneck you'd have a point.

Or...

Golem crafting is purely a magical craft. We see dot mages creating multiple temporary ones in moments, no manual effort involved. Everything the goes into making a lasting golem comes from a mage, with the possible exception of Earth Stone if you want to grant it some level of intelligence. Those Aviss? Each one of them took a mage a weeks worth of effort to produce, and none of that effort can be handed off to a mundane craftsman. And that's for a gimmicky toy golem.

Hmm, yeah that would make it grammatically correct but still subject to the 'repetition in writing is awkward' thing from my first point. There are ways to do it, and well, but it's something you should tread carefully with.

She paused at the window for a moment, outside Kirito and Klein were seated on the patio overlooking the garden, each sipping from a glass of barley tea. Both had taken the brunt of the treacherous viscount's electrical attack and had only recently completed their recovery.

That was just adorable. Well done, TH. Kirito and Asuna deserve this moment, and many more, besides.

Hopefully the FL will do the morally right thing and sideline them till they are both 21.

Or at least wait till Asuna has had the year or so of therapy she needs before asking them to go out fighting again.
 
Bah!, I'm only siding with you on this one Vaermina because now is the time to re-traumatize the other 16/17 year old girl in the fic.

Bring the feels TH! My body is not ready.

Well, if things go as planned I'm going to try for a more Tarbes-esque arc for the next round. Will contain Argo, Kirito, Sakuya, Alicia and Louise as major characters.

Cause you just know that if Argo asks, Kirito will help, specifically, he'll help to keep Asuna and Yui safe.

Time to muzzle Argo then. :D

No Koko? Thought she was gonna bond more with Louise before the bombshell drops.

I was speaking of primary characters. This one is going to be tricky actually since I have to overlap Kirito/Louise/Argo plot threads simultaneously. Hopefully with one snip for each per update.
 
Minor thing:
"Then I'm sure Yui will be as good a cook as Asuna some day." Klein complimented. "Seriously, Asuna-chan, how did you manage to do this? It's almost as good as some of the stuff you made back in Aincrad."

"Almost?" Asuna asked dangerously, holding an imperious expression while Klein spluttered.

I don't think Klein ever tasted Asuna's cooking in SAO. Asuna wasn't really acquainted with Klein until the 74th floor in Aincrad. Then there was gleam eyes, then the first duel with Heath Cliff, then Kuradeel... I guess you could slip it in somewhere during Kirito and Asuna's vacation, assuming Kirito told him of their whereabouts. They were supposed to be keeping a low profile.

Eh, they managed to have a full damn side adventure with Argo (admittedly by accident), Klein can slip lunch in their somewhere. :p

3) This was stated as a requirement by Brimir himself: that his magic, following his death, would seek out those 'destined' to receive it. Also, (with the exception of Tiffania) every person in canon who became a void mage later became either a royal (or pope) or a potential royal. (Louise, for example, later became Henrietta's heir.)

Well if memory serves, Tiffania is related to Albion's Royal blood line via her father, who was (I could be very wrong) the Archduke of Albion and the brother of King James of Albion. Which makes her Wales' other, other cousin . . . Whose father was killed on his father's orders . . . Damn Wales, sorry that your dad was such a huge asshole. But McDick needed to steal the limelight and brooks no competition.
 
I go off for a day or three to give my arm some time to recover from stuff and you guys eat off about 30 pages.

By the way TH, I'm not feeling anything warm, fluffy, or fuzzy after reading the newest part, that's a normal thing right?

Which reminds me to ask, is Beast Taming a unique thing to Cait Syth or do they just have an affinity for it? Also, if a very big eagle (Like big enough to snatch humans off the ground but not big enough to ride on.) kills a dragon, do people bat an eye when one dragon with a broken neck hits the ground?

Hey TH I was wondering, why did the academy send Eleanor to oversee the Fae zombie autopsy?

Reading over the section again . . . It wasn't the first 'autopsy' that had been performed on the Zae sample. They started poking it pretty much as soon as it arrived. She was probably simply assigned to observe and take notes during a followup examination.

Completely normal. :cool:

It's a Cait Syth Exclusive skill most likely.

I don't know why, but I feel that the whole windstone crisis thing was canon just to make genocide/obtaining living space justifiable for some reason. Would it terribly upset people if it was...err...deleted?

I'm pretty sure that the book of prayers would be calling for elven blood regardless of the windstone catastrophe.

Ah that makes sense.
 
Huh, Sayuka, Alicia, Argo, Kirito and Louise as main characters. Louise had mentioned in the Karin-dere snippet that she had looking for signs of the lost Pixies in Tristania and had found some leads. Could be a followup to that.

Which unfortunately bumps her into Kirito and Argo's investigation. Which results in an oh shit series of events.
 
Onel said:
I think a lot of people are perhaps overlooking a problem of the near future: the windstone crisis. How can an industrial revolution truly get started when in a couple years the middle section of the Pyrenees / Alps mountain chain will rip out of the ground near the border of Romalia / Gallia and become a second floating island? Which may fall in a few months, a few decades, or not for several thousand years. And it will be only the first of many scattered throughout Halkegenia over the next several decades. That will be a tremendous wake up call that - however much they may wish to start an industrial revolution - they have greater problems to deal with first. They can make whatever plans they wish, but in a year or two the windstone crisis will reveal itself whether they are (at that time) priorly aware of its incipient arrival or utterly surprised at that time by the sudden levitation of a section of mountain range.

I very much doubt that's going to be stopping the industrial revolution. Even with mountains ripping themselves out of the ground the Fae still need to make a living. And because of the Fae mindset and cultural context, they will go about making a living in a way that results in an industrial economy.
