This invite link should get you joined up on the Discord server:
This was a great contest! We had 22 entries by the end (which is why it took longer to compile the results), and it was tricky to narrow them down, but we’ve made a decision! The winner is Victor Mornington, for his suggestion of Galene, the goddess of calm seas. So please join me in welcoming Galene of the Gangplank and congratulating Vic!
(Fine print: Winning this contest does not in any way, shape, or form, confer upon or entitle Victor Mornington to any interest in The Gangplank Public House or its subsidiaries, present or future, domestic or foreign, real or imagined, or ability to act as an agent on its behalf or on behalf of its principals, or use of its brand for marketing purposes or slander most foul, from now into perpetuity, forever and ever. And ever. But we still get to come to pool parties.)
Hey Maxwell! Nice video – it looks great! Are you on the New Babbage Discord server? A lot of conversation takes place over there so I’m going to paste a link to your post over there. :-)
I’ve also added the YouTube and Vimeo links to the Resources tab in the menu as well as the main Resources page. I think they’re both the right ones if you’d like to confirm.
That’s funny, my browser still says it doesn’t have a secure connection. We’ll have to figure that out, but I’m glad things look better for you now!
Junie sat on a balcony sipping a glass of fine red wine as Victor’s port boys ambled up Four Kings alleyway toward the Academy. They were loud and brash, bragging and tussling, with no apparent concern for who should overhear. She shook her head and turned to the young man standing beside her.
“Your friends are all so sloppy I barely even need you, but…”
She pressed a small leather satchel into his hand.
“All I need is a key to the gate on the sewers. When you have it, give it to the Squire.”
The young man nodded, and she furrowed her brow in thought.
“Hey, tell me something. Do you and your friends go all the way up to the hotel to drink after a long day on the docks?”
He shook his head. “No, he don’t want the likes of us drinkin’ in the bar and dustin’ the place up on account of his posh guests. Not that we’d drink there anyhow, it ain’t exactly the kinda place me and the lads can cut loose. If you know what I mean.”
He blushed slightly, and Junie grinned.
“Remember where you come from, kiddo. Clockhaven is home. Let’s give that smug ratcatcher a run for his money!”
((The city may be overdue for a good round of Bar Wars – who’s in?))
It started out as a lark though, not a book. I’d love to do it just for giggles again sometime even if it isn’t publishable. Or at least try, because it WAS so much fun! :-)
