I was trying to put some pure acetone which I just bought for 5 dollars for 32oz into my car

As a writer, I don't make things up as I go along. I make things up, and watch to see how they go along.
I guess so.
When I start something, I just write until the storyline runs itself out. I don’t go in with a page limit, because it just ‘limits’ your progress.
Oh, I know how that goes.
An undead story? lol
I just looked up "necromancer" in the dictionary.
necromancy (nèk´re-màn´sê) nounFor some reason, I started thinking of John Edwards.
1. The practice of supposedly communicating with the spirits of the dead in order to predict the future.
2. Black magic; sorcery.
3. Magic qualities.
.
(Either one.)
There’s the rules for the living, and the ghosts have to follow rules too.
The Eternal has some plan for Karsh, though he doesn’t tell him what that might be.
And in their initial encounter, what the Eternal doesn’t tell Karsh is that he didn’t die when he battled the Archon.
(Karsh doesn’t know that bit, nor did anyone else.)
Karsh has near godlike power, reason being is that he is this skinny short type, and there is a bit of prophecy (Abilene wrote it down way back, and kept it in mind) that says that “The greatest power is hidden in the weakest vessel”.
Growing up, Karsh was shunned, excluded, and feared.
As well as envied for his extra abilities.
This also makes him a target for the Archon, as well as that world’s version of the devil, Balk’ell.
(Balk’ell often mimics the likeness of Karsh.)
Karsh was buried with the KLing’s crown on his head, so he has been wearing it for a thousand years in the crypts.
While he can take the crown off, one could swear they hear him speaking from within it.
(This is normal, both crowns do the same thing, but only certain people can hear the Shining Crown speak. The Shadow Crown can be heard by even shennites. This is yet another way in which Karsh is seen as unnatural by his own people.)
I write until Karsh, Arselen, Abilene, Rathe, or somebody storms off.
Yes.
The Archon also creates ghouls, chauggoth spiders, Torban, orbeck, nordali, and a whole host of shuffling dead or undead creatures to plague the world with.
I somewhat based the Archon off of AlGore.
I would assume the Archon is preparing an army of soldier/servants to do battle with another powerful entity.
One problem for the Archon may be that the nature of the battle and the ultimate battlefield may be unknown until the battle is joined.
Even the role of Karsh may be unknown in the battle.
I can see that the battle is not going to go well for the Archon, but it might turn into an opportunity for Karsh.
I can also see that the telling of this story might require six books.
Ah, stream of un-consciousness.
Don't feel bad, sion. It actually has nothing to do with YOU. I was at a point in CFIDS where everything familiar had become alien, including the pride of my brain: my ability to spell.
But some days are like that. Others are blissfully "normal," and those are the days that get me through the really bad ones. ;o]
Good morning!
*pant-pant*
Good morning to you!
How are things in ... um...wherever it is you are?
(I woke up at 2:00 this morning, extremely sick, so I’m not sure how long I’ll be here. I’m just waiting to see what will happen...)
Oh, I’m very sorry you’re not feeling well!
Things are okay here. (North Carolina)
My parents are arriving in a couple of hours, so I need to clean!
I feel OK, actually. I just awoke in the middle of the night as sick as a dog, and aside from leaving me a little weak and puzzled, I’m not too bad, right now. (It’s slightly reminiscent of food poisoning....)
I, too, have to clean house. Mostly dishes and floors, but I will wait to see how I feel before tackling either one.
*eyes go to pinpoints, D-sheare falls over*
Six?
The Archon, as you guessed is preparing a vast army.
Far more than he needs for the job, actually.
His goal, as it was ‘back when Karsh was a kid, is to wipe the Realm off the map.
And claim the thrones and crowns for himself in an odd belief of his that they will increase his power.
If I could do animation, I’d be tempted to try and animate the entire tale instead.
Whoa! Got up this morning thinking the house was slightly chilly. Turns out it was — windows wide open and 52F outside. Good thing the furnace was off.
52 in July? Ick.
