REPOST THIS EVERYWHERE ON ANY AND EVERY ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS PAGES, OR ELSE THE INERNET WORLD WILL COME TO A CYBERBULLYED, HACKING HAULT. EVEN IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE PERSON, POST IT ON THEIR PROFILE. NOW.

FOR THE GOOD OF YOUR DA ACCOUNT PLEASE READ THIS!!!!!!!!

OK, so many of you have heard this already, but there's a hacker going around on DA, he's getting into peoples accounts, and even worse, he deactivates them completely. There is a way to avoid this though, if you ever get an email from nobody@Da.com or something like that, asking you to change your passwords, don't do it, it's a trick to get your account hacked, just delete the email as soon as possible.

and now onto worse matters, below is a message (from microsoft I believe) that is warning people of a massive hacker, and the steps you need to take to stop him from getting you. I would like to thank for getting this info.

IF A PERSON CALLED SIMON ASHTON ( SIMON25@HOTMAIL.CO.UK ) CONTACTS YOU THROUGH EMAIL DON'T OPEN THE MESSAGE. DELETE IT BECAUSE HE IS A HACKER!!

TELL EVERYONE ON YOUR LIST BECAUSE IF SOMEBODY ON YOUR LIST ADDS HIM THEN YOU WILL GET HIM ON YOUR LIST. HE WILL FIGURE OUT YOUR ID COMPUTER ADDRESS, SO COPY AND PASTE THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE EVEN IF YOU DON'T CARE FOR THEM AND FAST BECAUSE IF HE HACKS THEIR EMAIL HE HACKS YOUR MAIL TOO!!!!!...

Anyone using Internet mail such as Yahoo, Hotmail, AOL and so on. This information arrived this morning, Direct from both Microsoft and Norton. Please send it to everybody you know who has access to the Internet. You may receive an apparently harmless e-mail titled 'Mail Server Report'

If you open either file, a message will appear on your screen saying: 'It is too late now, your life is no longer beautiful.'

Subsequently you will LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR PC,

And the person who sent it to you will gain access to your name, e-mail and password.

This is a new virus which started to circulate on Saturday afternoon. AOL has already confirmed the severity, and the anti virus software's are not capable of destroying it .

The virus has been created by a hacker who calls himself 'life owner'..

PLEASE SEND A COPY OF THIS TO ALL''!

Thanks for the feedback, it will be a lot of help in tweaking the story

The stuff you mentioned about not revealing the character's motives and lacking exposition was intentional, actually. I don't know if you've read Stephen King's Dark Tower series, but I was somewhat inspired by his style when I was structuring the story. You don't really know much about the main character until 2/3 of the first volume (the Gunslinger) and it stuck with me cause I felt in suspense about him (wasn't sure for awhile if he was a good or bad guy until the 2nd book/volume); and, it made me relate to the other supporting characters in the book (appeared, altogether, in the second volume: The Drawing of Three) who were thrown into a situation without much knowledge about the situation or about the man they're helping. Basically, the Dark Tower's main motif was about destiny and how faith plays a big part and how as human beings we are thrown into situations without any knowledge but we make it through by following our instinct and faith.



Too anybody who wants to be kept in suspense about what happens to The Stranger next, please avert your eyes from this point on:


****************************Spoiler Alert*************************************************



However, I do agree with you on the prologue. It wasn't originally part of the story, it was something I came up with while I was structuring the story and thought I would throw it in as a prologue and see how it works with the readers.
But I had alternative plans of using it as either a a tag line/gimmick for the back cover, and/or bring it out later on in one of the other volumes as a reveal about his mysterious ties to the apocalypse (for example, in a later episode I was planning on having him sifting through the ruins of the Smithsonian or Vatican (some place with archives that have mounds of hidden texts stored) where he finds an unpublished manuscript of a famous philosopher (maybe Nietzsche or someone along those lines) that basically states what you read in the prologue.

Also (this is in reference to the first part of this reply, but because it contains kind of a spoiler, I'm mentioning it here), his past won't be dwelt on for much longer (at least not with as much detail you saw so far). This is the first volume out of God knows how many lol, but the story will switch back to present day about halfway through this first volume (around chapter 6 or 7, which the subsequent chapters shouldn't be as long as the first one was) where we first met him standing on the plateau before going into a town to accept a bounty mission.

As you can probably tell by now, I'm trying to be a vague in the beginning to keep the story as suspenseful as possible (without losing the reader completely). But, I'm working on the second episode/chapter now and hopefully certain things become a little clearer (thinking about releasing 2 chapters next time though instead of one).
