Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Did you know that your summary was copied from X?

A: Whether it’s a wiki or blog or podcast or youtube video, I can assure you that I wrote all of this myself and the more likely scenario is that they copied it from here without permission. Some have asked permission, and I thank them for asking, but yes I am aware that these summaries have been spread to other places across the web.

Q: Are you going to do Dawntrail or Later?

A: The original point of these summaries were to help people get caught up for the story thus far. Since Dawntrail is the start of a new story, it does not look at this time like it is necessary and as such I don’t plan on doing a summary for it. Time may tell if that changes.
