I flicked through it on my way to buy Winter Masques about an hour ago. It's a bit daunting, so any advice you can offer regarding that process will be much appreciated. The goal for this next campaign is that all characters, locations, and major plot arcs must be mapped out before the first session. My goal for the first (an Everway game as well) was that it must finish rather than petering out. I'm prepping the second campaign I've run since I was inspired to try my hand at GMing again after reading Long Road Home.

I'm also particularly looking forward to your discussion of chronicle creation. That's probably a naive description, but it seems like a fun metaphor for those trapped in the fallen world, unable to perceive a way out of the lie, moving backwards through their lives.ДЄnyhoo, wonderful to be here at the beginning of this thread and looking forward to experiencing it in real time.

I was told as a child that lobsters get trapped in lobster cages because they move backward and can't find their way back out. Being originally from Maine here in the US-a state well known for its shellfish-I'm particularly struck by the stanza describing the tortured souls trapped in lobster cages. I've never heard the Sting song referenced in the opening post before, but I love the fantastic and grim imagery it evokes. Huzzah! Glad to see the new AP has started and very much looking forward to your discussion of chronicle creation, and the chronicle itself!
