A dramatic & intriguing intro to what I hope to be a series. Fabian has some big shoes to fill, & quite a quest on his hands.
Hey Cryptic Hybrid, I left a message on your YouTube video as well, but thank you so much for doing this! I'm glad you liked this first sampler of the Erdien Chronicles. :-)
Hi. I'll check your YT comment next. I'm sold on the world and the Chronicles, bring on episode 2! :)
