Hey Shiri!
Thanx for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the story so far!
You're too kind! ::blushes::

I agree totally, however, when dealing with religious iconography (god, the
devil, etc.) there are no grey shades. People who are religious believe
(except for buddhists whom believe all is as it should be) in the
fundamental "Black" and "White" archetypes, and to emulate many current
religions I try to echo that in my work. I'm trying to set up a history and
religion for these little ABS people, and as crazy as that seems it takes
ALOT of research and "borrowing" certain aspects of existing literature.

Thanx again! Like I said before, it's alot of hard work, but with accolades
from you and the rest of .castle it certainly has paid off. More is on the
way, so stay tuned!
