Awesome as usual! I like your fig choices and that sea-monster is pretty epic!

Whoa, that tree is so Kaliphlin... very nicely done! Reminds me of all the irrigation pipe I have to pick up each year...

Remarkable similarities! "I say, good show!"

I like that color-scheme! So tans are not limited to Kaliphlin.

Very Mitgardian. Nice work!

I really like those figs!

Hmm, Mitgardian architecture and Nocturnian landscape... looking good!

Hurrah! Ulandus lives! Now I must revive the High Council...

Very impressive as usual! The size and scale credit you well!

This is just perfect, Jacob! The feel is spot on. I love the angled section of the one wall as well! That reminds me, I should start forming my HSS list...

As always, your builds are an inspiration, and down-right phenomenal!

Thank you, BrickOn! Glad you like it! Thanks, Graham! Thanks! Yes, this story is mostly narrative (though I dived into omniscient POV pretty often. ), unlike my GoH story, but I'm glad it turned out well! Thank you, Noel! Yes, I still don't like the trees, and I here you on the coastal thing. This one was meant to be slightly inland, but only about a kilometer so. BTW, who's Joseph?

Very, very large. And very well done! The layout here is awesome!

Love the buildings and layout!

Amazing posing, as usual!

Lovely aestetic here! I'm loving the smoothness of the rockwork and the overall layout of the fort! Good show!

I like the road a lot! Great work!

Grisly, apt, and altogether very well built!

Love the feel of this one!

The screeching of a Seagulls echoed noisily through the uncanny silence surrounding a solitary tavern, causing a few of the men standing on the road to jump in fright. One of the men, a uniformed marine wearing a wide-brimmed hat smiled sardonically. “A fine lot of soldiers you all make.” None of the men responded. Most of them were dressed in civilian garb, and there were few that did not show some sign of agitation. “Is it true Captain Mortimer makes his victims cut off their own fingers then eat them?” a mustached cloth merchant asked. “Quiet!” An elderly man holding a torch shaded his eyes, staring down the road. “I thought I heard something.” They all heard it now. The thud of boots on the road, the coarse laughter. The very air seemed to smell saltier. There could be no mistaking that noise. Then there they were. roguish a band of pirates as could be found in the northern seas. Their leader, a red bearded man in a bicorn hat, smiled cruelly at them, eyeing their force with contempt. The marine's hands started to sweat despite himself. His words came out in a hiss. “Fire the cannon.” The elderly man jerked out of his frozen state and raised the torch over the cannon's fuse. He was too slow. Before the marine's eye could register what had happened the lead pirate was pointing a pistol at the old man and there was a report. The man fell dead, blood pouring from a wound in the direct center of his forehead. And then the pirates were upon them. The marine lifted his carbine just in time to block a blow from the lead pirate only to feel fire and ice in his side. One of the peasants was down and the others were running. The marine's compatriot, a big fellow with a pike, had skewered one of the pirates, but had his pike knocked out of his hand. Then the marine felt the lead pirate's blade enter his abdomen and he knew it was over. For a moment he stared at the blade in his chest, then he was on the ground, choking on blood. This was it. He hoped he died before they could torture him. The pikeman dove for his pike only to find one of the pirate's pistols in his face. He moved back only to find the inn wall behind him. His breathing was ragged, and not from over-exertion. Captain Mortimer smiled his cruel smile again. “What made you think you could beat me, royal dog?” The pikeman spit. “We will never stop trying to beat you.” Mortimer stared at him for a moment, then shrugged. “Off with his fingers.” The build. I actually started building this over two months ago, and put three Bricklink orders into it, so you could call it a masterpiece of mine. I tried to combine some of the cleaner/smoother styles on Eurobricks with the more textured style of Mocpages and Flickr, hopefully to favorable results. Also, off the record, but this is literally the first build I have posted in the online community in which I have used yellow heads. The back. So I guess that's it. There's looking to be some pretty tough competition for this contest, and I'm honored to have participated! Good luck to all the contestants! ~Adair

You can use mine if you want, though they probably aren't very descriptive of Kaliphlin. Oh, and the next instalment of my series should be up sometime soon, hopefully, in case anyone is still interested.

Estolad will never yield! Send no emissaries to our town if you at all value their lives! Nice wrap-up, Ska.

Awesome entry! This should be an interesting contest...

Did I comment on this? Awesome work! Love the interesting mushrooms and almost every other aspect of it!

Nice build, Gothia! Keep it up!
