Post seven, a few paragraphs down you call Reynolds "Reynlods".
Paragraph two of post seven page eighteen. "She was afraid of she opened her mouth," I think "of" is a typo of "if" in this situation?
Third paragraph, post eight of page eighteen, Lucas says "Happy Saint Valentine's Day," which was almost enough to make me stop reading the story. I know it's a small thing, but just having Valentine's day in a whole different world from ours is odd, since I do believe there is history behind the day, and I really doubt that history from our planet Earth would have been important all the way in Gielinor, which is likely a far distant realm. I continued to read, but this was like a barrier that I had to climb before I was able to take in any further events.
Post six, page twenty, first paragraph, you say "were he to fall was heroically as Martin had," I think by "was" you meant "as", you also say "saving his life," which is greatly confusing, as saving ones own life is in a way impossible, though I guess not getting themselves killed counts. This is one of the many things it makes it seem like you're trying to say, "were he to fall heroicly, saving his own life." I know that's not what you mean, but it's just hard to understand, and I haven't got a clue what you DO mean. In fact, after re-reading it, I'm not even sure if the "was" mentioned above was a typo.
First paragraph, post three, page 22 has "when I just thinking how", I think you meant to add "was" before that "I"?
Paragraph three, post three, page thirty. Lucas writes "I a man named Martin," I think you should remove the "I", as that seems like you're implying he made friends with himself, Martin, and Gavin.
Last paragraph of post two, page thirty-one. "By now the horse and slowed", I think you mean "horse HAD slowed"?
In post three of page thirty-three, James says "should warn you, I will I have to spend " I think you accidentally added the second "I"?

Post under, Justine says "long enough to fashionably late." I think you mean to put a "be" after "to"?
Post eight, paragraph three, page thirty-three. "dancer., and" I think you mean to remove the full-stop from there, right?
Down under that a bit, "agreed with met that" you have Lord Val'Lyese say. I think the "t" on the end of "me" was a typo?
First paragraph, post ten, page thirty-six, you spell "beach" as "beah", just a typo. :P Same page, post, last paragraph, you say "Lucaus" rather than "Lucas". First paragraph, page after that, you say "the sinister crackle of hundred of feet", you meant hundreds?
Last paragraph, post four, page thirty-seven. "caldrons that simmered" Typo? I think you meant cauldrons. :D
Post below, paragraph two. "opportunity wave his sword at the Kandarin," That's sort of confusing. What's it supposed to mean?
Post six, page thirty-seven, paragraph two. "only be the time he ahd", I think that's a typo of "had"?
Lower down, you say "Lucas felt powerful and relatively save up on the wall even so;" I think you meant "safe"?
Paragraph below. "he glaned at the hole", I think that was a typo for "glanced"?
The next post, first paragraph, end of the third line of text, "The sword was knoced from his hand", another typo, meaning "knocked" this time?
In the largest paragraph of post nine page thirty-seven, you say "tormented with guild", I think "guild" was a typo of "guilt"?
In the fourth paragraph of post one, page thirty-eight, you write "and let go her to run his fingers" did you mean "let go OF her"?
Post two, page thirty-eight, when Justine says "Ok. I'll go," it should be "Okay, I'll go." As the proper way is to say "okay", but she, as a character, can still say "OK", but in this case, it must be capitalized.

Post nine, last paragraph, last line, page thirty-eight. "steadier than every before." I think that's a typo for "Ever", right?
Paragraph one, post eight, page thirty-nine. "notched and arrow," I think you mean "noc*ed an arrow", though notched is suitable, but "and" in place of "an" is not. :p
Paragraph under that, it says "at it looked bad," what's that supposed to mean? Did you mean "at least"? (That came to me while writing this.)
Last paragraph of post nine page thirty-nine. "He hands were shaking terribly." I think you meant "His" rather than "He".
Page fourty, post four, last paragraph. "they wawant to retreat." I think that's a typo for "want"?
In the largest paragraph of post ten page fourty-one, you say "piece" in place of "peace".

Errors done!
Sorry, I do that with all of the stories I read, I hate having to point out errors in such a great story.
However, it truly was a great story, and I thank you for making it! I suggest you continue to add. Every day. NOW! HURRY! I'm hooked! I might die without it!

Wow. Thank you, so much, for that review. Seriously. The first part, with all the praise, makes me a very happy Smeeze. ^_^ That really means a lot to hear, since that's totally what I'm going for. As for the second part...that makes me sad, I like to think I'm not that messy, but clearly....Usually, once I write an add, I don't like to proofread, I just wanna post it and be done. I'm one of those writers that can't stand to look at what they've written. But, I probably should. That list is really helpful, and I will certainly go back and make those edits. I was doing really good with editing in the beginning, and I've gotten lazy. I'll go back and start fixing those...now, since I have a free moment actually and can't figure out what to do with myself XD
Anyway, thanks again for the review, it's incredibly helpful. As for adding...as of tomorrow night, I will hopefully officially have applied to college. I still have other applications to do, but once all the early action ones are in, I should hit a lull...and if I get into Northwestern (I'm applying early decision), well, then, I'll be done, and life will be so much easier, and then I will sit down and get writing. In the mean time...I write random scenes for this story when I'm bored in class, but I've hit writer's block for this current part, they're all future scenes (I have the future all planned out, just have to get there...).
Sorry, I'm rambling. I'm really tired and high on caffeine and it's not been a combination that's worked for me at all today XD My point is...don't expect a whole lot from me in the near future, because my life is insane, but once I get into college (but maybe not until after basketball is over) my life will be VERY relaxed and I'll be able to make lots and lots more adds. So, I ask for your patience. But I'll try to churn out something in my Anatomy class (we don't do anything)....so. Yeeeahhh. Thanks! :)

You're very welcome, I love the story.
There are only a few things I think you really should fix, just parts that make it more confusing for the reader. Smaller typos and such can be figured out more easily.
Good luck with the college thing, hope you get into a good one. (If that's how it works, I'm homeschooled, you see. :P )

Awh, c'mon Bryana...forget about college, forget about school, forget about life, and continue this story for NaNo!
:D
Well, you know I'm just kidding. (I hope) Good luck with Northwestern. Hope that turns out better than all my Ivies.

If only I could...
Well, the application is in. I submitted my NWU app, so now I just have to wait...I hear by December 15. I'm still doing other applications though so I'm not all chilled yet...not until I HOPEFULLY get in. :P
Anyway, I made a good amount of edits. May try to do some more tomorrow night. I don't know. At some point. ^_^

This is my first post in stories, and I never knew Runescape had so many talented writers. The stories are so long though, some of them are hard to finish. As a noob to this forum, is there anything I should know?
