    The Great Account!

    Wow, it's been quiet in here!

    I've been working on this off and on for several months, but never got around to posting it. Figured this forum needed another thread, so here we go! Basically this is an overview of mythology and history I developed for all my bajillion fanfics.

    IF YOU HAVEN'T READ MY FANFICS AND YOU DON'T WANT TO SPOILED, DO NOT READ THIS STORY!

    It's inspired by the fantastic work by our own Mosquitor and General Stingrad.

    In this first installment, depicting the earliest parts of Eternia's history, we see the rise and fall of the Eternian gods; the construction of Castle Grayskull; and the tragic hero King Grayskull.

    And just who is the mysterious Wun-Dar?

    Section One: The Unknown Days and The Era of Preternia

    Tales of Masters of the Universe
    The story of Masters of the Universe - spanning from Skeletor's origin to the final fate of He-Man!
    Masters of the Universe: New Legacy

    Never told you this, but always had your stories in mind when I was writing my He-Man romances. Didn't have the patience to create an elaborate backstory for my stuff, so I just wrote them as if they were organically growing out of your vision. Love the way you have blended the Filmation stuff with darker fare, 40! I will never forget your support back when I wrote Mountain six years ago because it was so experimental. And yes, its been six yrs...can't believe it either!

    Gosh, has it been that long? Where are your fics these days? I'd love to do a re-read?

    Section Four: The Third Age is up!

    In this installment, read about the Horde Incursion that led to Teelana becoming the Sorceress! And see once more the fall and rise of Keldor; the courtship of Marlena; the Horde War; and the Council of Evil!

    Plus: Vikor, Oo-Larr, and Mo-Lar? How do they fit into all this?

    On Section One and the fall of the Eternian gods...uh-mazing! Lindy? Tundaria? Obviously, homages to Linda gary and Thundarr the Barbarian, and I loved these touches. For even some small mention of the Bitter Rose, which I am mad for and wrote THREE stories about (my Bitter Rose Trilogy), I would follow you into the Fright Zone for more of these tales. So respectful of Lou Scheimer and so evocative of classical myth, I am blown uh-way!

    Between you and T. F. Cooper, so much cool stuff to rip-off...hee-hee...kiddin! Write more! Please!
    Yes, luckypoo,..I am the famous Full Fallen Moon! Yes, 'Mountain Of Hyacles' should be required he-fan reading!
