"at least seven elbows tall" - world-centric units of measurement always stick out to me. Whenever I'm writing and decide to fall back on imperial/metric units in my own fantasy worlds, it feels like a cop-out; on the other hand, coming up with alternatives requires brain work which (i think) goes underappreciated. "Elbows" is a great way to describe height, especially from the perspective of a dwarf.
I had the same thought process often and this time, I am loving that unique world with all its uniqueness. Measurements like elbows were, as you guessed correctly, introduced by the rather scholarly dwarves. I aim to divulge more worldbuilding, but slowly, episode by episode!
Extraordinary writing. Strange, but I wrote a story of a Black Knight in my Star Child series. But who would dare to ban you from posting notes, commenting on other's posts or restacking? They have feudal thoughts, do they not? ***
Good stuff man sorru so far behind on reading your stories. Crazy that english is not your 1st language yet you master it better than many who only use it in passing.
Bloody awesome man. Ill get into the rest either tonight or tomorrow night. I gotta know how u find the time to write. Im currently staring at a screen trying to make my plot work. I might bring out the hammer to jam it in lol.
Jokes aside I have your stories geared up for tonight before sleep robs me of my conciousness
I don't know! I woke up today and saw I couldn't comment on people's posts, nor restack, or post notes. I appealed, but I know not what I did wrong! I only post my own poems, haiku, and excerpts from my own published books. Anyways, please, could you restack my 2nd Warrior Wednesday post (Slaves of Fear) and tag our fellow wordsmiths?

Would you like some Terran Morale Officer energy? :D
WOW that’s an amazing story
I should be posting episode 5 this Wednesday. Follow the links and read all four.
I will!
I am so happy that I made another reader happy :D
You absolutely do :o)
Good story
I hope this posts. I think I am blocked from posting comments and notes.
Why? That's weird, how could you be blocked? Especially since I'm still subbed to your stack.

I'll go find it, right now.
I worked on it till 4am in the morning... and I had such hopes for Substack.
Can you let me know who's in charge? I'll tag them and ask what the hell
The 2nd part is in the works.
Good
Loved it. Thanks!
Thank you! I will write more episodes :D
I'll read for sure :-)
Let me know.
I am banned from posting notes, commenting on other people's posts, or restacking.
Why on earth is that?
It was some technical error and got resolved pretty quickly.
Thank goodness for that
Substack deleted my comments. I am banned from posting notes, commenting on other people's posts, or restacking.
I am trying to channel my favorite poet, Ivan Vazov :)
