To start off, ohmiGod, Pyrae, I love you so much. Yeah, my birthday was in April, but it was a lovely present anyway. "Lovely" doesn't do it justice, does it? Um. It was better than "Soul Music." Which is my second favorite book ever.

You're going to have to wait on being number one until the thing's finished, I'm afraid.

Anyway, I've just realized how completely sadistic I am in my writing. For the first seven and a half chapters of the Trilogy, everyone has been begging me to "make Nick more important." As if the fact that he's the grandson of the most important person in the history of the world wasn't importance enough.

Well, they're going to get their wish.

From about this point on in the Trilogy, Nick will constantly be either "dying" or going slowly insane. Often both.

And you said he wasn't important, Lyra. Shame on you.

This is, admittedly, probably mainly so we can have all the adorable Elliott/Nicholas parts. Similar to the Jack/Daniel in "Lockdown," except that, you know, Nick doesn't quite have the calm references down yet.

So really, it's more like:

Nick: You [shot] me!
Elliott: ...no I didn't.
Nick: You totally did!
Elliott: ...did not.
Seth: We all saw you.
Elliott: ...I hate you.
Nick: You [SHOT] me!

(I like keeping secrets. Can you tell?)

Ok this isn't cool cause I just realized I STILL don't know who the necromancer is... REmember - "ITS ELLIOTT!" "NO ITS NOT ITS JUSTINIA" "WHAT ARE YOU CRAZY JUSTINIA CANT BE THE NECROMANCER! ITS GOTTA BE NICK" "BUT THAT WOULD BE TOO OBVIOUS!"

Actually, we find out in chapter eight. Which is also when poor Nicholas starts going completely insane.

And it is obvious. At least I thought it was.

Yes okay. because obvious to you is not always abvious to us. but technically it is, or so it should be since you kind of revealed it a whole bunch of posts ago. but i wont repeat it. so go searching. and anyways, i did say is wasn't important but i changed it. honestly you cannot hold it against me.

who shot me?
(various looks to the center)

You were shooting up the gate room.

Because that's what it's called.

Well i know that, but than why do they switch from calling it embarkation room to judt the "gate room"?

oh and the other book i got was equal rites. so now i have 3 tp books and 2 garth nix books.

Because everyone who works there has to say it in a hurry. I mean, just try rushing past someone, shouting, "Daniel's shooting up the embarkation room!"

I don't like Equal Rites much, but I guess it's okay.
