<This is Naomi, but I am building up to a Pervinka-like fit of temper>

If anyone happens to care, I may post up the Elemental calendar system. If you ask nicely. Leave a comment if you give a rotten phoenix egg about what we do.

omg, finally... AN ENTRY!!!  
Yea, yea, I finally started working on our little project, after a very, very long haitus. Only because I was losing to Naomi in chess today.
Anyway, as far as the whoel story itself, we didn't accomplish much.  I'll begin typing as soon as I finish updating here.  But Naomi and I did come up with the name of the race of Has's people [I still have to make a new name for him] and we completed the whole God/Goddess chart.  We also came up with how each race was created.

Okay, in the beginning, there was the God of the Sun and the Goddess of the Moon.  They had 3 children:
Villiara [goddess of war], Ranomo [God of Ethics] and someone I have yet to name, haha. [God of Trade and wealth]
These three children decided to create a world for them to rule together: they named this race the Falinasta.  The only thing was, this race was TOO perfect, because they were the exact image of the gods themselves.  The race had no need for one god, let alone 3.  So the siblings decided to create races of their own, so that each sibling had their own race to protect.
Villiara created the elves, Ranomo created the pixies, and the god who has yet to be named created men.  he siblings made an alliance between these new races, vowing that each shall live in peace and harmony [however, men break this alliance, in the Withering War.  I don't know how this is significant just yet, but don't worry, it IS significant]

Villiara married Amalo, the god of fertility and peace, and had 2 children: Liani, the goddess of learning, and Elistan, the god of the Sea.  However, Amalo and Villiara began to disagree a lot, and soon, each went their seperate ways.  Villiara kept the elevs who were more aggressive and carried warrior-like traits.  Amalo took with him the elves who were more peace loving and fought only weeds.  The elves that came under Villiara's rule became known as the Silvernians, while the elves now under Amalo's rule became...uh... well, they also have yet to be named.

Ranomo married Apara, the godess of love.  Together, they had 4 children: two set of twins [twin girls and twin boys]: Lisana, the goddess of innocence [who later marries Elistan], Metamika, the goddess of the underworld, Tamel [a washout in the family because he was dim-witted and mind-boggling stupid, he was cast out of the family, and he started his own race that was also dim-witted and mind boggling stupid: the fairies] and Lusan, the god of masculinity. 

Elistan and Lisana had one daughter, Kenoa, who was the goddess of courage.

The god of trade and wealth married the goddess of craftwork [still yet to be named] and they had a daughter named Seraya [the goddess of culture] who later married Lusan.

This is the story of how Dwarves were created:
When the god of trade and wealth created man, he was very pleased with his work.  At first, they seemed to be very similar to the Falinasta.  But the similarities endend beyond appearances, for men turned out to be greedy, sneaky, coniving, etc etc.  A good certain amoutn of men created a smuggling conclave, looting the homes of women and children, and they only cared about money.  Their greed consumed them, and their god became very angry.  So He cursed them for eternity by casting htem away inot the mountains, where for eternity, they searched for gold and other riches.  These men were known as the Dwarves.

there you have it!!! it may sound confusing now, but once this novel is done, and the one I'm going ot begin about the Withering War, I'll write ANOTHER novel concerning the gods of Elementa.

Re: Ancalpora Xanga Entry

AAAAAAAAH! I HATE TECHNOLOGY!! STUPID COMPUTER JUST ERASED MY WHOLE MESSAGE TO YOU!!!!!
now i have ot start over!!! awwwwwwwwwww man!
Anyway, sorry I haven't been writing in the xanga or working on the story in general- too much work and studying.. I promise to work on it again once the SAT and the regents are over!!
Okay, so I saw your xanga entry, and I had a few things to say.. I think you're starting to complicate things again
 
-Okay, I don't really like this new explanation of yours.  I think that the whole strong-weak thing is a cool yin-yang affect that will explain the whole not dying thing a lot better. If this pair of twins have such a close bonding, then it will be assumed by others that if one dies, the other does too.  It just makes it easier.  The strong-weak thing will explain why Pervinka doesn't die better than "The reason Pervinka doesn't die is that twins are not connected strongly enough to ensure that both will die at the same time." That kind of just complicates things again.
 
-At first, the translation thing confused me, because wouldn't younger generations just catch on to the COmmon after centuries and centuries of using the spell?? Then I came up with something to tweak the idea a little more: what if the only people ALLOWED to use the spell (like let's say everyone in the native country are strictly.. um, what's the word im looking for? oh yea, traditional, and like to keep their one language to prevent mass culture) were the younger generations preparing or going to school, which is taught in Common? That would explain why no one else can translate, they never recieved the spell. Do they all still lose their magik? Because theat would explain why they can't just USE the spell on her. Yea, i think that makes the explanation stronger.  And that would explain why the Pikstilana teacher cant translate, ALSO, it should not be a "translation spell" per say.  That would mean that younger generation could catch on to Common if they heard the translation long enough. Let's say the spell allows the pixies to speak in Pisktelana, and allows those who understand COmmon to hear it in common, and those who speak common sound like pikstelana to the ears of pixies.  Pervinka just happens to mention this detail, since she's so used to it? We need to stregnthen this idea a lot more.
 
--"We have to cut the part where pervinka understands them but not vice versa. That makes no sense. We'll just have to make Laedella slightly more competent if we want any actual conversations to take place. Maybe she's good at speaking Piksilana but seems not to be because early on Pervinka is still in shock and not making much sense."
I absolutely agree with the first part- it goes with the whole Translation thing. BUT NO!! LAEDELLA MUST BE STUPID!!! IT's a gut feeling i have about the next story line, and besides, she has to be stupid for Ataralas to HATE HER MORE! Ataralas MUST hate Leadella, Aataralas MUST be able to think Laedella is a stupid, idoit, and she can't be mean enough to say that leadella is an idiot if she is in fact, not that stupid.  Ataralas is not cruel, she speaks the brutal truth, as all Elves do. But Ataralas MUST hate her for furture reference.. what it is, exactly, I don't know. It may have something to do with when Ataralas visits her godesses temple and is the True Warrior in a future book (Which will model off the Elvish prophecy "Victory will come to the true heart of true light")  So Leadella is dumb. Remember... the "Lost City" is a metaphore, Laedella's too dumb to know that. It's crucial!~
 
okay, gotta go, im exhausted, I slept for over an hour this afternoon, so ttyl!

<Naomi>

It's official; nobody cares. So I am now going to post my ideas to revise some of the plot for the the sole purpose of making sure I don't forget them.

-Forget the stronger/weaker thing; twins have equal power. The reason Pervinka doesn't die is that twins are not connected strongly enough to ensure that both will die at the same time. She definitely passes out, and she comes close to death, but eventually she makes it.

-Pervinka does not lose her Common because of brain damage. She loses it because she couldn't speak it to start with; her undertanding of Common was due to a translation spell, which pixies from wealthy families (i.e., all the ones at Ancalpora) often use. When all pixie magik was canceled due to Pervinko's murder, the spell died. This also explains why there are no pixies at Ancalpora who can translate for her--all of them are in the same boat. (Pervinka is known to speak Piksilana on occasion because there is an element of choice under the spell as to what is translated; also, swear words always remain in Piksilana.)

-We have to cut the part where pervinka understands them but not vice versa. That makes no sense. We'll just have to make Laedella slightly more competent if we want any actual conversations to take place. Maybe she's good at speaking Piksilana but seems not to be because early on Pervinka is still in shock and not making much sense.

I've given away the ending. OH WELL! NOBODY WILL EVER KNOW IT, BECAUSE NOBODY EVEN READS THIS!
