It's now time to start a new thread for Julian of Anvil. Now that she returns to her hometown, it's rather appropriate to start a new thread to celebrate!

Thanks to all who have read and posted input on Julian's story.

For those coming in late, if you've got the time, here are links to the previous threads:

Chapters One through Seven
Chapters Eight through Thirteen
Chapters Fourteen through Eighteen
Chapters Nineteen through Twenty-two

I hope you continue to enjoy this story as Julian works toward the inevitable conclusion!

Okay, two posts to comment on, with very different tones.

Julian's misadventures with Carahil's more...personal...book collection had me in snickering while reading. It reminded me of the shocked reaction my father had when I first tried reading through his collection of the Casca books, at the tender age of 9. He caught me before I even made it past the first page.

Secondly, Julian's meeting with the Countess of Anvil: in it, you write an excellent account of Millona Umbranox's character, as well as some more insight into the politics of Cyrodiil. Her relationship with Count Indarys is well depicted, and her governance of Anvil shows through.

Though I must say, I think Julian's time in the Deadlands has made her something other than fully human. She's now avoided two things that somebody can always count on: Death and Taxes.
