Questions about a storygame? Thoughts on Eternal? Any other IF you're playing out there?

Ninja did it again. It seems reports of his death were premature.

I know we're all busy with being gay for the rebellion contest and assorted Christmas stuff, but since I'm not sure how familiar the current crop of noobs is with Ninja's work I thought I might as well make a thread to say that a new story from him is usually a pretty solid "put down whatever you're doing and read" moment.

I read it last night and it was amazing! It was just the right length, and I gave it an 8. It was a really captivating pirate adventure and I’m planning on writing a review once I finish the other paths, and work a little on my story for the contest. I really loved the main character and the mix of a religious mission in between the pirate/seafaring adventure stuff. As a member of the current crop of noobs this is my first experience with Ninjas work, and in a word it was breathtaking. If you enjoyed the pirates of the Caribbean movies, you will love this story, it has a more serious protagonist, because after all he’s trying to save his kingdom which is plauged with disease and ghouls, but the same magic is there. It’s also more grimdark, and that made it even more captivating at times
