Epilouge

“So, that is the tale of Ea't s'Quid. Now go away.”

“No. You didn't answer everything. How did you end up in the bar? And how did you manage to meet and marry F'ght Fr'm R'ng?”

“I told you. I was young and foolish. And she's quite the beauty. More so when I'm drunk. Woke up married, got divorced, got broke.”

“Bad lawyer?”

“Split divorce simpler. Wife get all stuff, Husband get to live.”

“Sounds unfair.”

“Split do anything to get out of marriage.”

“Oh, I see.”

“Eh. Sometimes it works out okay. Parent's not kill each other. Try hard, but never quite succeed. Must be True Love.”

“Or poor marksmanship.”

“Entirely possible.” Ea't shrugged. “Mother never very good marksman when sober. Worse when drunk. Excellent Jatra Duelist. Teach sister.”

“Sister? Oh, right, the limp.” Ea't winced.

“Don't remind me.”

Tremendously so, in particular the final crawl through those four sectors. It's a long bloody way from Ceo's Buckzoid to Kingdom End. Particularly at 67m/s.

The worst part was the waiting for the jarheads to finish so I could take the Akuma.

And yes, it is the end. I didn't feel as bad about ending this, because I know his story continues on in From Nothing.

Thank you. I kind of wonder where _Zap_ has got to, since he did such a fantastic job on APR, I was kind of hoping to have him do this too.

That would explain a lot then wouldn't it, eh?

I can compile this into PDF if you like Triaxx? I've been steadily adding my progress on PoE to a PDF file since it started, so I've had a little practice. Open Office has an export to PDF function that works quite well.

That would be cool. I have Open Office, but I don't have anywhere I could host the file.

Hey guys!
I'ts been a while since I was active on this forum except for checking news and stuff, but that might change just now

I'd gladly go and do the pdf, provided you Kirlack haven't already done it.
In the end I'm using nothing but the OpenOffice pdf-export function too.

Triaxx2 · Post by **Triaxx2** » Fri, 28. Sep 12, 04:48

No, he hasn't. I've tried, but for whatever reason, my PDF's just don't work as well as yours. Mostly because I end up with pictures that are all bunched together.

I'd be happy to have you do the job.

With great shame I've noticed two days ago that I never made the promised PDF of this story. This has been rectified, and the product of my efforts can be downloaded here:

Instead of the OpenOffice export function I used another software this time and it works quite well.
The document also contains a couple extra pictures that Triaxx couldn't upload at the time.

Hope you enjoy!

Oh. Oh dear. I am so sorry Triaxx, I completely forgot I'd offered to do that

*beats self with bat*

Triaxx2 · Post by **Triaxx2** » Wed, 15. May 13, 23:25

Now, now. No beating. You need those cells to keep writing. And besides, until he sent me a PM letting me know that he'd forgotten, I'd forgotten.
