Comments on: From the Archives: No Clue http://InDarkness.darkicon.com/2007/09/12/from-the-archives-no-clue/ All of us... even the world itself... began in darkness.

I owe you BIG TIME! I'd forgotten all about the wayback machine! I'm looking through it now. Trial does *seem* to be unfinished, but the vast majority of the text is still there... so it may be a case of a single chapter missing, or the last chapter IS the final chapter, and the authors intended to continue it in yet another story. More importantly, I now have the complete files to The Unseen and Murder (Murder is the precursor to Trial). I'll be working those up this week and posting them. Thanks, man. DUDE! I owe you BIG TIME!

That comment made me remember a way back machine web page, so I did a search for it and found it. ( http://www.archive.org/web/web.php ) It looks like both Murder and Trial are there, although Trial looks like a to be continued story. I also found the old character summary, and the notes on plot lines. Lots of good memories there. Thanks anyway.

The various episodes of it MAY still exist in some archive of old (ancient) newsgroup posts somewhere, but I certainly don't have them. Sorry. Sadly, Trial is probably lost forever.

I'm glad to see these fragments showing up, and even happier to find out there will be some complete stories. Any chance of the Trial being reposted, or is that one lost forever?

But before this moment I would have sworn that I never posted it anywhere. Oh well, I guess I'm getting old. There's a couple more complete stories I'm gonna put in the library in addition to the fragments I'll be filling out the blog with. Stay tuned.

You had posted in on the Asylum Walls in a category titled Tales From the Hard Drive, along with this description: "Here's the first chapter of *something*. I can't remember where I was going with this, and there aren't any other notes about it on my hard drive. This story fragment pre-dates both Magekiller AND my first Dragons-Inn stories, yet you will find elements of both within it. I guess you could say that Magekiller is a direct but distant descendant of this tale." I'm enjoying the new stuff on this site. Glad to see you're still around.
