Pictures aside you can be doing so much more with your writing. I won't go into detail or discuss the building blocks of storytelling but I think you can do better.

Mate, I challange you to do what I am doing, Go to the Worlds Edges and travel along its Invisible Wall, where there is little to see, little to do. And write a Novel. Yeah I could Write something interesting, Yeah I could write it from the Hearthlings POV, but in truth, Most Travel logs showed little or spoke of little. Heck I think the Oregon Trail Travel Logs spoke of things like....

"Manthrid was able to Kill a Bear, we eat well tonight...."
and
"Suzy caught something, we don't know what, but I think she will be ok..."


Novilists normally leave out Travel in their stories, have you noticed that. Because Travel is boring...





Anyway...

How about a Vote cause I am gonna call it a night tonight...

I hit the Corner of the world. Which way should I go...

North Or West???

No need to be so sensitive.

I ain't, just pointing out the truth. You ask for something, when told it can't be given you act like someone who knows better. And heck you try to then hide behind posts like that. Mate, you should know that its hard to write a story about Travel, and its hard to keep to everyone expectations anyway...

The majority of the Readers here that have posted requests for me to continue are just enjoying see what others go through on doing things that they don't. 80% prob never leave their small little Village or Claim in the middle of no where, and even if Half of those that DID, they prob only go out as far as the first few Level X Bears. They don't go on World Covering Wagon Rides. Nor do many go prospecting as much as I will be. Granted I am not expecting NOR Actually Looking for a Mine myself, just doing it will prove to those Whiners that there are still mines out there if they got of their asses and clicked at boring images for a while...

Well I must roughly be where you are at. Southern edge of the world, more east than west. There are no fucking mines out there and I am close to become one of those whiners myself, although I judged them quite hard in the past ;)
If however you discover a mine at the southern edge and you decide you don't need it, just let me know.

I'm personally enjoying reading the story. So very few people do this in this game and your story has me thinking about doing the same.

As for those who don't like your style/lack of images/etc... I insist that you remove the shackles forcing them to read your story. It's just unfair to chain people down and force them to read what you've written.
