Great story man, though I need to ask something.

Ye look very much like a real solider in the army.
Are ye?

Or you just played too much Call 'O duty games? Eh?

I just happen to have a knowledge of what it was like, from stories told by veterans, to games that are based on those very stories.

Review for "A Warrior's Acension" by Demongaming0. Review by Mbtsc/t, reviewer of "The Yanillian Library"

Spelling/Grammar- 19/20- Your spelling and grammar is important in a story for it's easier to read when it's better, and it also shows that there's no laziness from the author. You did an amazing job with this. I'm not sure if you had a spellchecker or what, but it was good none-the-less. There's one thing I have to tell you though. When you make a -- brake in your sentences, you do not capitalize the next word, for it's still part of the sentence, just a big brake in it.

Description/Vocabulary- 33/35- This was great. I saw a lot of what you were telling throughout the entire story. There's one thing I personally hate so much, and I say this to most stories cause it isn't done. That's describing the main character(s). I can't stand that because you have to try to picture the protagonist and antagonists by yourself, which doesn't make it better. I think it makes it a bit worse.

Plot- 40/45- This was a bit different from most other plots I've read. This is showing how the daemons, (didn't know that was the correct spelling :P ) that come out of the portals where you play the pest control mini-game in RuneScape itself, are trying to become dominant. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but that's what it seems, and there were one thing I want to point out.
~ Jarvel saw no way off the island. He didn’t know where to go or what to do. The island was crumbling under the force of the magic, and he was the only living thing left on it. The vegetation died, and the fortress crumbled into dust. The lander was no more, and the sea churned and boiled.
Jarvel saw only one way. The portal still stood there, but it faded into nothing before him.

He refused to die, alone, on this island.

He saw only one way forward, and thus he took it.

He walked to the portal, and stepped forward.

He stepped into the belly of the beast. ~ That was probably the most shocking scene -- in my opinon -- throughout the entire story! No one would expect that and we get to see the inside of those portals. Great job here.

Character Development- 37/40- I liked the way you put emotions in Jarvel after his brother or best friend (I forget) died for the knight. It was so emotional. When Aris and Kagiso spoke was also a time where the characters had really big feelings. A lot of characters are just "there" and seem a bit like robots, so this gave your story a bit of a nice feeling to it.

Organization- 10/10- Nice paragraphing, table of contents, I have nothing else to say here. A perfect 10. :P

Overall- 139/150- 139/150 points means it's a 92%, which means that this story will gain access to "The Yanillian Library." Congratulations. Now my opinions about the story in its entirety. I enjoyed reading this fine piece of literature. It had a lot of twists and turns, and the plot was original, not another one of those Saradomin vs. Zamorak things that most people, including myself (yes, I have Guthix in there), use. I hope to see this story progress to a great success. Good luck with future storywriting.

Oh, I see that you've made your questions for the library. Good job with that, and there's one thing though. You need to make sure your questions are possible to answer, for this is extra credit for those taking classes in "The Academy of Literature," but make sure they're hard enough where you need to read the whole story to get a good grade, but not too hard. Once again, good luck, and I hope this review helps. :) Congratulations again. ;)

Thanks a lot for the rating =)

I've been busy as of late, but more additions are on their way. This is sort of a side-project for me - I have a much longer, [infact, book-length] story on the go to. Unfortunately, it's not Runescape related.
