That's right, boys and girls, the next chapter of Sword of Fire, chapter 11, is finished.

As per my usual custom, I just logged onto IRC and sent it to about 7 people hanging out on #sennadar.  One of them will come along behind me in a while and post up a link to the chapter.

Hopefully, anyway.

I hope you like it.  I know it's been a while since you've had an update.

Sorry it took so long.

Amazing, great.. and the last part is making me a little sad.  I don't know what to think, it sounds like Tarrin is going to kill himself or something after everything was settled.  It's probably nothing as bad as that, but just as sad.  I can't decide which story that I want to read more, Subjugation, or Firestaff...  Both are at a very exciting part.

I love the stories so far, keep it up.

THANK YOU!

I'VE TRULY MISSED MY TIME WITH TARRIN AND WAS JUST GETTING OVER THE POST ADDICTION JITTERS. LOL

THIS WAS A GOOD CHAPTER, REFRESHING AND ENTERTAINING.

WARNING ALMOST A SPOILER

I DISAGREE WITH THE PREVIOUS POST. I DON'T THINK TARRIN IS CONTEMPLATING HIS OWN DESTRUCTION. SELF EXILE PERHAPS. BUT I CAN'T SEE NIAMI OR ANY NUMBER OF OTHERS ALLOWING THAT EITHER. SO ONCE AGAIN I AM EXCITED TO SEE WHERE FEL TAKES TARRIN AND US ALL IN THIS.

THE ELDER GODS BETTER WATCH OUT OR THERE WILL BE ALL KINDS OF "MOTHERS" RUNNING AROUND WITH WOODEN SPOONS AND OTHER HOLY AND UNHOLY WEAPONS....

MY SMILE IS BACK....

Thanks Fel. I was expecting more action with Tarrin being the helpless Kitten :o, but great chapter.

SPOILER?

To need this many characters, there must be a big blow-up/fight planned :o

Well, Tarrin has to survive for another book (Demon's Bane, from http://www.sennadar.com), so I don't think anything nasty will happen. ;D Though that might be where he exiles himself to. Tarrin Demon Hunter. Goes to their home plane, and permanently kills demons or is that too D&D?

Christmas in June? Perhaps not, but nonetheless a great gift. Thanks Fel...

When you are faced with the fact that you are the biggest danger to those you love, you leave.  They might try to stop you, they will probably even come after you.  All you can do is say that it has to be and walk away.  They will be depressed, they will cry, they will curse the gods.  But they cannot argue with you when they know the reasons why.

It hurts like hell when you have to do that.  And the pain is not that easily overcome.  The best you can do is to work through it, and to better the lives of those around you.

That is the decision that Tarrin made.

Of course, we've already got the problem of Tarrin's a half-step away from ascending because he has a follower with true faith in him.  *cough*Zyri*cough*

no, I don't think so.  She loves him.  Adores him even.  She would do ANYTHING for him... but she wouldn't ever WORSHIP him.  Her love is a romantic love, not a religious love.  Just my thoughts.

That was my thought as well.  Mist started out madly in love with Tarrin, before he got his divine powers.  Zyri never knew any difference, and she sees him as a much more benevolent god.

Hmm, that makes me wonder.  If Tarrin does stay on Pyrosia, since he wouldn't have any family or what not to hold him back you then he'd finally accept his godhood and ascend and become something like an Elder in Pyrosia after he blows away the One?

Um, Isn't that exactly the type of Love Tarrin has for Niami? Also why would Fel go into details of how Mist's soul is connected to him if she wasn't a "worshipper"? Maybe not in the "classical" worshipper sense but she is.

Oh goodness, I hope not.  Having a romantic love for someone you call "mother" is kind of creepy...
