    Bonus story on Sla'ik and the ewtes posted.

    This was a little tricky to write, but quite entertaining, as I hadn't yet shown you guys the connection between the Snake and Sla'ik.

    Also, I kind of wanted to get this bonus story out of the way before the next few chapters, as some of the information in there will relate to upcoming events!

    *giggles* I like it.

    Poor Sla'ik. He so got played. But a well-written story!

    You could your taste of ewtes then. Hope you're satisfied!

    And yes, Sla'ik got played. The Snake's tricky like that! :D

    Anna - still has no idea about the whole ewte mating thing.

    <giggle> It was very cool, and I'm satiated. Thank you, Anna!

    I forgot to say: it took a lot of work for me to research for the ewtes.

    I even based their names off of different newt species, e.g.:

    Sy'nop from the Cynops (firebelly newts)
    Li'sso from the Lissotriton (small bodied newts)
    Ri'ka from Taricha (Pacific newts)

    but their colourings don't necessarily match the type of newt their names come from... I kind of picked and chose features I liked.

    (Sla'ik on the other hand I think came out of nowhere...)

    Wow, neat!

    My research is usually era-based. Or etymology... though I left the lion's share of that to Elasmo *smirk*

    *smile* okay, yeah, I can see that. I spend like half an hour reading about Linden trees :-)

    Sorry, I derailed your thread again
