.·:*¨¨*:·. .·:*¨¨*:·.The Beginning….·:*¨¨*:·. .·:*¨¨*:·.
This is a small summary of a premise of the story. If you are joining now, please read this so you can understand an important part of the plot.
The man rubbed his face, looking at the chess board in front of him. Krelin sat across from him, his legs crossed. He knew that he was just waiting for him to mess up somehow. Instead, Krelin got up and walked to the corner of the space.
“Strange…things seem so….quiet right now,” Krelin said, his voice hoarse.
“Certainly.” The man said with a grunt. He didn't care much for Krelin's psychological views. The humans caused their own trouble, why should they determine their actions? The man also got up and walked to the ridge next to Krelin.
“Do you sense danger ahead?”
“Of course..” Krelin hissed. “May the power of our stars protect them.”
So, let me explain this scene a bit. (Prior knowledge, this explanation does include some spoilers) Krelin and “the man”, plus many others, are technically gods. They live in the stars and are deeply respected by mortals. They used to be living beings.
Here's the overall plot I'm hoping for (With some tweaks later):
A group of people (To be determined), selected by the highest of rulers, journeys out to find the Star of Time. They need to find the star to travel through time and prevent a deadly war from happening.
NOTE: This plotline will be challenged and changed over time.

.·:*¨¨*:·. .·:*¨¨*:·.I'm joined, how do I start?.·:*¨¨*:·. .·:*¨¨*:·.
First of all, the studio for SoT is here: SoT Studio
In the studio is where the magic happens! It's our workspace. Here the thinkers will be discussing ideas, writers will be posting drafts, and editors will be well…editing those drafts.
You may have some questions, and I will answer them here.
BASIC QUESTIONS
Q: Where do I start working?
A: Right in the studio above. Please be sure to read the description and listen to what people say.
Q: What is the story about?
A: The plot I am hoping for is listed in the section called “The Beginning” above this post.
Q: When is the story based in?
A: It is based in a medieval-ish theme, and has nord influences. This means there is no major techonology.
Side Note: Any forum related questions can likely be found through exploration, and if you still can't find out, ask me on my profile.
ADVANCED QUESTIONS
Q: When do you think SoT will be done by?
A: That I can't answer right now. It all depends on how fast it grows, how long it takes for an idea to develop. Be patient, padawan.
Q: Where will it all be published when it's done?
A: Likely scratch, of course, in some form. Probably some other book websites too.
Q: I have no writing experience, can I contribute?
A: Of course! Moral support is always appreciated, as well as an occasional idea. We also may be looking for artists in the future to make a book cover/back cover.
(More questions to be added in the future.)
