I'm absolutely loving this combined idea. It'd be perfect.

Portia could be a Hunger Games referance, but judging by her occupation, that seems unlikely.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Season 4 Discussion
The Legonater replied to XimenaPaulina's topic in Culture & Multimedia
I meant I was confused as to why people act like it's such a mystery that they're not in Episode III. It's not. As I've said, there's some pretty obvious reasons they wouldn't be there. Yes, they are great charecters, and yes, I'd like to see what happens, but if they end the show without stating exactly what they're doing during RotS I won't lose sleep over it. -
Usually used. But at the time I couldn't think of anything else Considering the translation, the phrase seemed fitting anyways. Still, farewell just the same!

I disagree with this. Though it may be true with Lucas, Filoni has shown clear interest in EU, from the Nightsisters to simple things like knowing Plo Koon's species. -

I don't see why people are so curious on the fates of Rex and Ashoka. Sure, they're good charecters, but it's not like it's some big mystery as to where they are after TCW. Ashoka likely becomes a Knight and moves on to lead forces- perhaps even Rex- and likely gets shot during Order 66, and Rex simply is away on a mission. Unless one or both of them dies by then. -
Two. The first was a brief one for the Hinckwells, attempting to reclaim a forest that had been ravaged by criminals. As for the second... we were told that Wren was corrupting a city, and that rebels had sprang forth to combat these forces. Our party was called to assist these rebels, destroying Wren's factories and uniting groups together in a fragile alliance. When all was said and done, we charged our so-called enemy. It was a bloody mess, full of confusion. Hoke and Haldor's elf, Jess, had gone missing, and we had no leads. Meanwhile, the grass beneath us- at least what we could see through the bodies- was stained a sick red. To make things worse- it turned out the commander we had followed into battle had a double on the enemy's side. The two were each convinced they were the real one, and that the other was a corruption of Wren. We had to choose- go with the rebels, or the city. We went with the city. It turns out we were right, but the battles worsened still, and the sights sicken me to this very day. We ultimately won that battle, if you can have victory agaisnt chaos itself. I won't be able to forget that quest. Words can barely describe the awful scene that had been before us, the stench of rotting bodies and blood that covered the battlefield like a cloak. That's why I haven't signed up for another quest, yet. I need... I need time. My whole life I have encountered horrors, and always I've ran straight into another one. This time... no. This time I'll take the time.

Dyric takes note of a lonely rogue-ish looking fellow at a far table. He seemed worn, but Dyric did not recal ever seeing him before. With nothing better to do, he goes to sit beside Hybros. Hey, my name's Dyric Rone.

Apun first watching it, the 2009 Star Trek was confusing, until Leanord Nemoy came in. What gets me is that people ignore the fact this wasn't technically the real Star Trek universe and claim that everything is ruined.

Frankly, I found the ending okay. It wasn't exactly mind-blowing, but in my opinion it's better than you're making it out to be. As for Troy Denning... that I agree with. I found Tempest's plot was okay, but I've never been very impressed with Troy Denning's writing. Though he seems to do good at space battles (The Hapan Fleet battle in Tempest and the torching in Inferno were both amazing) and 3P0 dialogue (Yeah, I know, that's a small thing, but it's just something I picked up on). The only one of those I've read is Millenium Falcon, but from what I've heard of the plot, Crosscurrent sounds awful. Seriously- Star Wars and time travel just don't mix.

What was wrong with Millennium Falcon or Tempest from Legacy of the Force?

What I've said is based wholely on the comments I've seen to give an explanation as to why they might think that way. I, personally, try to remain neutral on anything to do with The Clone Wars until I've seen it myself. -

Mainly the codes. Once or twice I've tried feeling, to no avail. -

Frankly, that is how they ruined him. Now, I haven't seen these episodes yet (or this season for that matter), but what I do know was Darth Maul was the Boba Fett of the Prequel Trilogy. He was dark, mysterious, and didn't say a whole lot. That was his charecter. With him now being a psycho-maniac who aparently won't shut up, his charecter is drastically changed, and thus ruined. -
Well that's stupid. I can't say I'm the biggest fan of FotJ either, but at least it was okay for the most part. Now it just seems stupid, and has a direct connection to TCW. I guess it had to happen eventually... As for your other note, I totally agree. I miss the days when the books where about simple squadrons defeating the Empire, rather than mystical forces no one seems understand- including the authors.

Out of curiosity, am I the only one finding the Roman Soldier impossible to find? Everywhere I've checked, I haven't been able to find it. -
Wow. I must say, I'm actually surprised. It's definitely sad to see you go, but it's great to hear it's for a good reason. "Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la" -Mandalorian phrase, 'Not gone, merely marching far away'

I attack from the back row with my chain whip.

I have to say, I was hesitating in reading this. I'm surprised at the quality, for it being such a modern-book. I do have a few complains- the first have was too fast, with very little description- but other than that it was a good, interesting read. I still have yet to read the other two.

I actually had a similar idea for my story, which I might as well post the plot of here. Canada and Russia begin talks over ownership of the ice caps (an idea from my friend when I asked him for a plot for the book I had until then only had an idea of). Meanwhile, a Secret Service Joint Team combining agents from Britain, Canada and the United States' Secret Service groups is formed in order to track down a Russian terrorist threat which could destabalize the UN. In the White House, Deputy Communications Director Samantha Chetenski begins to recieve death threats from elsewhere in the US. As the talks slowly intensify, the SSJT captures the terrorist, who turns out to be an ex-US Military commander. This causes him to go on a JAG trial, which eventually rules him guilty. In synch with this, terrorist assaults resume, nearly killing soldier Reg Terrel and his girlfriend, a White House reporter. The SSJT again goes into action as the CIA finds the location of Sam's threats- a Russian politicion. The SSJT's investigations find that this politicion, and the terrorists are connected. When Canada approaches them of this, Russia decalres war. However, both countries have been preparing for this for months now. Basically, the rest of the book follows the ups and downs of the coming war, fought largely in Europe and Russia.

Sadly, there is not. In time, though, I shall return. Welcomed or not.

Duplovia is beyond the sea. It is a paradice, and yet a wreck. Many dark secrets are hidden beyond it's glamouring walls. The King is corrupt. Quite. He exiled me for continuing the family business of being a rogue. He executed my father, and prutally killed almost everyone I knew. One survived in secret, and is now in his military. This... this is only the beginning of the horrors I've faced. And yet... sometime... I must go back.I must redeem myself to the corrupt ruler. I... I must return home. The land beckons me. All that I have from there are my clothes and my sword. My brother... he is still in the service of the King. Directly in front of his rath. He hides it well, but it is there. Things... things are happening there. Duplovia has long been at war, but if what my brother tells me through his letters is true, they are coming to a peace... though one which may be even more fragile than war. Only time can tell.

At the sound of his friend's voice, Dyric's head whips around to face Jess. You're awake! You're- how? But- ...This is something that needs to be explained... in backstory. The Dark One, Wren- she... well, I don't pretend to understand her arts, but she did something to you, and you... erm... slept? It was a long time. Haldor and Tensi and I were beginning to lose hope. That Wren... she's nasty. She feeds on the very choas we sweat. We can't let it control us. If we do, then she shall control us. And I've had enough of hierarchy control. Of dark powers in places of position. It's not right. It's not right. Wren, the King... they're all the same. Thriving on our fear. Our dispair. They'll die. They'll all die. Dinuir balac ni pirunir sur'haaise val an! Suddenly, Dyric seems to calm down, blinking rapidly, and looking around. Um... anyways. What was it like for you?

I listen to Helm's Deep voice, then nod briskly. I was a foreigner too. My home land is Duplovia, but I've since been exiled, and declared a traitor. Dar'duplovyaim.

Another foreigner? I mumbel to myself. I then aproach the newcomer. Su'cuy! My name's Dyric Rone. And who would you be?
