This story was sort of the first "game like" story on the site that was actually completed in a timely manner. Morathi also took the time to actually illustrate all 255 rooms. Definitely not a task for the impatient.

The writing isn't bad its just sort of "meh" and bland. Plus you're not really traveling too much, most of it is in the town, and you're not really fighting tons of monsters so the "epic" feel really isn't there.

However the main purpose of this story was to be a "game" and a lot of effort was obviously put into that goal, so I'm judging it more by that and it gets a respectable rating.

I enjoyed this story very much. The writing quality was nothing special but the use of images was very nice. It must have taken a lot of effort to get all of the images in to really bring your story to life and I commend you for that. The use of conditions was interesting to, it kept reminding me of visual basic programming langauge without a compiler.

DEP, I felt like you did at first. I don't usually like these types of stories.

That being said, I didn't follow the story's 'rules'. I just explored.

And I actually, the further I got, the more fun I had. The story is actually quite funny and clever.

DEP, you need to re-read this one. Shame on you for giving it a 5, you non-poop eating bastard!

Everyone really loves this story, but I absolutely must disagree. I don't think this this was much of an epic at all, though it was definately visual. It read like a MUD with pictures, and I guess I'm just not hip to it. I recognize that a lot of work went into it to make sure it worked, but I would have greatly appreciated more description. Morathi, I've seen you put together stories that are a lot better than this. I was pretty disappointed here.

Great Job, but the fighting goes on for way too long. Why not have a smaller amount of HP, or have a simpler/different fighting style?

I think a better rating would have been 7.5 but as you can't choose that... This story obviously took some brains to put together and everything in it seems to work. It's cool but it didn't hold my interest for that long (This isn't really favorite type of CYOA). The pictures were also really nice.

Truly, as the title states, epic. The author must have taken weeks to write this story. Very commendable

Since the ratings were reset I wanted to make sure that I came back to this story and re-rate. This is by far my favorite story. I had so much fun reading it!
