    Source of Inspirations

    Most of our inspirations on creating something interesting are sourced from either personal experiences (involves travelling to certain locations to gain insights, accumulate new ideas by doing something that you possibly seldom do etc.) or material resources (like online research or books)...

    Using "Eras" to Differentiate Major Events in Fantasy History

    In my thread Wars and Revolutions - Do You Have Them in Your Stories, I came across a reply by Antaus which intrigues me to discuss an interesting topic. From the excerpt of my reply to him, I have shown my approach to categorize major events in my WIP. I called each division of historical...

    Wars and Revolutions - Do You Have Them in Your Stories?

    The periodization of your fictional history does resemble one of the Elder Scrolls, simply love the way you put epochs to differentiate major events one from another. I also have a similar approach to this, but the events were somehow metaphysical in nature for the first two known periods...

    The Storytelling of Role-Playing

    Wow. Well, I did not realize that suddenly there are many replies popping out a few days after my opening of the thread. I am indeed surprised that people interested in this field. I may say that writing a fiction sourcing from role-playing games is one of the means of "rediscovery"...

    Noted. Based on the suggestion by DragonOfTheAerie, Skylake will do pretty well for now. Thanks for your feedback. :)

    Post songs that best represent your writing

    For some scenes in my story, I prefer Morrowind's "The Road Most Travelled".

    Combining Words to Create Interesting Words

    My skylake was not made up of buttery substance after all, despite it was actually made up of magical salts which properties flourish the strange ecosystem inside the skylake. The chemical composition of the lake made Lovecraftian-esque creatures like floating worm-snakes, ugly yet cute...

    Wars and Revolutions - Do You Have Them in Your Stories?

    It sounds like the world of your story will get to be reshaped completely after these three massive wars, both physically and ideologically. I see. Perhaps someday I will chase for Game of Thrones series (or its more delicate novel series) for this type of politically dynastic warfare for...

    Quite. Still I endorse it well, since the skylake has features resembling spiky cliffs, steep structures and deep skylake bed.

    How about "Wind Crater"? Because of my main concept for the lake is described as very deep below and have unusual large rocky spikes which normal lake does not possess, is there any other words besides "crater" which can describe such?

    Pretty cool! Although somehow it bears similarly with "Skyrim" a little.

    This is my alternate set of vocalized musics which almost make me stunned.

    Post songs that best represent your writing

    This is so far the best vocalized music to represent my recent work. I am unsure of the language used in the music, but it is very tempting to listen.

    Wars and Revolutions - Do You Have Them in Your Stories?

    I have been intrigued by conflicts in stories, specifically real open conflicts. I love how wars or revolutions can reshape society and bring unprecedented changes to a story's setting. It is interesting to think out a series of events that can influence how characters interact with the world...

    Thank you :), it is indeed sounding more natural. Alternately, I have also thought of the name "Wind Crater", but I am unsure whether if it suits my story's location or not.
