Indefinite Taciturnity

I'll be taking a break from posting Eldawn related developments while I work on the actual writing for awhile. It's time to channel all these ideas into the actual prose. I haven't revealed much in terms of the actual characters involved in the story, partly because they aren't fully fleshed out in all aspects.

In other respects, I'm attempting to devise a believable hydrological cycle that does not require precipitation, and yet leaves maneuverability for a deluge. I'm also trying to characterise the second era of Eldawn, post Deluge and the collapse of the first cities. In a time when the stories that I am crafting now have turned into legend and myth, and the original creation story recedes further into the myst of memory. Not to mention language development, scripts; pictorial or phonetic?

One thing is for certain; I've a slightly better understanding of the hardships of world-building, and in the process of my research, a better understanding of this world. Meanwhile, I'll still post Vignettes, Thoughts and Perspectives as and when I feel motivated to do so.
