@Angry Words

I don't know if you are going to come back to this forum but if you do I have an answer for your question.

"I mean like, how does it take three days to walk from Falador to Taverley??"

Scale Theory is the idea that RuneScape is a fictional world being viewed on a scale. The world is, in its fictional universe, logically designed, as the storyline suggests. The version presented in-game is much smaller than the actual fictional world of Gielinor and has been scaled down to make gameplay possible. Essentially, the world of Gielinor is being viewed through a filter that removes most of the details from the world that are not necessary for gameplay, and condenses all of the world's features into a reasonable size for playing.
Time is another part of Scale Theory. Time could actually go much faster in the "game" then in the real Gielinor. Every second could actually be an hour or even more. This is supported by the fact that during farming, plants grow up very fast. However, officially it has been the year 169 of the 5th age since the release of the game despite the theoretical time that would pass and events that occur within the game further increasing the disparity.

Been waiting for this for a while now, and I've got to say that Church certainly doesn't dissapoint. Despite his J. K. Rowling-esque kill everyone complex, I really enjoyed Legacy of Blood. Honestly the worst part about it is that I don't want to wait another year to see what happens next! I'm a power reader, so this was a one sitting read for me :P

Congrats on the new book BUT THE NAME SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE CREATIVE.
LEGACY OF BLOOD IS ALREADY A BOOK THAT IS BASED AFTER ANOTHER POPULAR VIDEO GAME. It's just a bit awkward to once again see another game-based book come up with that name. Other than that; it's all good, unless of course the content of the story coincidentally happens to be similar to Richard A. Knaak's Legacy of Blood (which was a totally bad-ass novel).
Orgone / Orgonite :O

Bought the third book within the minute of its release on Kobo/Amazon, and just finished it. Another breathtaking novel by TS Church. I love your work, Mr. Church. Each and every one of your novels thus far have been of immaculate wording, and impressive character and story development. Kara-Mier's inner struggle and your way of describing it was of such perfectionism. Coming from another fiction novelist- i look forward to reading the rest of your career's work.
