Historical Challenge Noa Part 2

Hey everyone!
I changed the link for you, and I really hope it works! Now you got Part 2 without Part 1 before, I will try and change the rest of them too before I update!
Monique, I also found the "blond" and deleted it :) sorry for that, it is always a little weird to have changing eye- or haircolours within a story

And about the names :) yes, there are indeed many, but mainly the lifers are important. There will be a sister, playing a little bigger part in HIS past, but the rest of the family are only names for now. We thought about scripting, but all the work with "give him a sister, another one, another one" and a mother and a father and a nanny and a brother... it would have been to much.
Dorem is her cousin and there will be a few more people on the ship that have names, like the guard and another woman, but they are only to read along and (I hope) self-explaining :) Names are always a little hard to find, because I am trying not to call anyone Kate, Emily, Erin, Sofie, Monique, Kara, Vicky, Jen, Sarah... we have so many people in this comunity :) and of course they somehow had to fit the context.

Well, enough with the talking, just keep asking if there are more questions and I will try to answer. Have fun finding out more about the brave young hostage....

I read two parts today and think is really good work. The persons are explained now and it tells about heroines past that she is rich so Kara was right with the hair long and cut. and now also there betrayel with the Cousin, realy bad man! and he kills the other man and now will maybe kill the Family.
I wanna know how continues. will they found? what is between the Heroine and Mark?
update soon!!

Eeek, that was one chapter with a LOT of information being thrown around lol I actually had to read it three times but I think I got it figured out now.
The thing I'm struggling with most is that there's a lot of names going around. The men that are with Hugh, then there's the bad guys, then there's Shane's family plus nicknames and last names being used.
At first I didn't realise who Dorem was when he was attacking Hugh lol But after reading it again it all clicked. He's a not so dead cousin and he's after my money and property... U-ooooh!
For me, because of all the names it was hard to figure out which ones were the main characters you know.

*puts on scripting-police cap*
Mark makes such a cute blonde *ahem :p* ;)

Also; I had some troubles finding where the second part started (ended up reading it all again, which wasn't that much of a burden really but still lol) Seeing as you don't have chapters going on (yet??) could you do something else to make it a little easier to find maybe? (and if you have a scripting program that messes up scripts when adding changes, you know where to find me ;))

/end of script bitching

So a monk aye... *wink wink* Looks to me that he's made the right choice ditching that profession.

Hey again! Puh, Monique is right there are many names in this part! but I found it interresting how the pasts were reveiled. The monk, the family, her wealth. It felt like getting to know them more.
The Dorem thing I felt as well. at first I didn't know where to put him but then suddenly I saw the picture.
Just one thing about the story itself: Don't you feel that they are too close? It is Nicky in my case I changed it again :) and in there first night they were a little close and I wasn't sure if I liked it when the love story between them starts so suddenly. In the end it didn't look like the rush I had feared so I will be waiting for the next update

All the names, it's not necessarily a bad thing Noa ;) I think that if I kept on reading the whole story in one part I'd probably get into it sooner. Now it ended where it did and I was confused so I read back lol If there had been more story, I probably wouldn't just yet and figured out the most important ones along the way.
You made the right decession I think not to script them. Not only would that be hell for you to do lol it would only make things much more complicated if one name accidentely didn't get scripted lol You've scripted just the right ones, the rest of them I'm sure to get to know better if the story continues ;)

About the blond thing; I always do a general search while scripting. I'd first search for all the browns and change them as they belong, then I go and find blond, blonde, blue, brown, dark, green. The most common ones y'know. But one or the other will always slip through. Scripting is a bitch! hahaha

I am quite intrigued by this story but I can't seem to grasp what is happening. Could be the massive headache/cold going on right now.

It sounds really interesting thus far.
