RF, I'm sure they have limited resouces as far as posting web articles, and who could possibly want information on the Border Kingdoms when they could be getting quality articles on evil squirrell ninjas . . .  |

Scribes, there's nothing sinister about the delay. Ed tells me that it (and the Realmslore delays) are very likely to be the result of some poor overworked WotC staffers FINALLY getting to take some holidays.
BTW: this same cause MIGHT keep last year's Spin A Yarn tale off the website until after GenCon.
So, as much as we would all like our Realms fixes . . .

All right, well, thanks for the heads up, Hooded One.  |

Scribes, the mighty Felshroun entry is up.
I'm keying this in on a cellphone, and don't know how to provide links anyway . . . Kuje? Wooly? Sage? Anyone?

Milady... as much as I would enjoy any opportunity to rush to your aid, I am inclined to redirect your attention to Dargoth's post above. He's already provided the link to Ed's write-up on the "Free Barony of Felshroun."

It's about time... I was beginning to think they'd quietly dropped this feature, as they've done to so many others.
I was getting worried too, I've been loving this series. |

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Sigh. All scribes, please be aware that The Green Road is NOT part of the Grand Duchy of Shantal. Ed has no idea where that spurious header came from, beyond that it appeared (obviously) after he submitted this entry to WotC.
Let's see if they fix it . . .
Hawkgarth, promised to follow, isn't in the Duchy, either. |

And it's a two-parter! Hawkgarth (part one). |

Not that I doubt your word, Wolly, but that number is official? |

Well, it's officially the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything... But I can't say if it's the number of Border Kingdoms. |

There was close to 40 published as part of the POLYHEDRON series. That number doesn't include the others that Ed never had a chance to include, nor the Border Kingdoms passed "O" since that was were the original articles finished. It also doesn't include the few extra BKs mentioned as part of the entries in PoF and the Border Kingdoms articles at WotC.

As long as there is no "real" official number of BK's I take Kuje's and pass it on until there is no room for debate or doubt left, forcing Ed to except that number as "his" official!
Hail to the 42 Border Kingdoms everyone!

| You know, both this and the previous Hawkgarth columns were downloadable as Word docs, rather than the pdfs that they had been... Ditto for the new Realmslore article. The rest of the Wizards downloads are in pdf, though... I wonder what's up with that? |
