Alleran Tan Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Wow. An extremely well chosen topic- my mind is already buzzing...I was going to do a Trill creation myth. I don't have a title yet, but I have several ideas.Congrats on the winner, by the way. I liked Commander Thelev's story, but Tel-Ar's was extraordinary as well. A wise decision. I've taken the review of own story to heart- I'll work on making things a mite less... predictable... this time. Oh! Do people mind if I post the alternate ending to last round's story, simply for curiousity's sake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nimue Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 (edited) Wow. An extremely well chosen topic- my mind is already buzzing...I was going to do a Trill creation myth. I don't have a title yet, but I have several ideas.Think anyone will realize if I repost my Trill creation myth story? cannot wait to see your version - I started a myth-buster type of story, maybe this time I actually finish it. This last round kicked me in a head, I had more than a half of the story finished and started to work on finishing it.... a day too late!It was about a young man who was kidnapped as a little child and spent whole life in a "family" that kidnapped him and have a problem integrating back into his real family and community and is asking his right to choose - and his choice is to return to family he loves and care for. The whole story is a scene between him and a lawyer supposed to help him with his case and when they set everything and lawyer ask about both families he told him he's Liberated Borg.I wrote intro and end and had a part of conversation, but needed more discussion, it was too dry. ::shrug:: Edited August 31, 2010 by Nimue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nimue Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 Can anyone tell me where those old stories are stored now - I misplaced mine and cannot find it anywhere. So tried to find it here and it's not in Mar/Apr '10 and cannot find it in Beta Antares Shipyard. Hope it's not just deleted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chen Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 (edited) Think anyone will realize if I repost my Trill creation myth story? What you've done there is you've revealed your evil and nefarious scheme before actually doing it. You're not by any chance a Bond villain, are you?
