-I killed him, and took his stuff, remember?
-And, he continues to spur my advances to recruit him into playing D&D with us.
-That said, concerning the theoretical DRAGON article, Dan did say he'd give me a copy of anything that he wrote, to proofread, check for accuracy, and so on, and being as that he never did, I am assuming his idea never got off the ground. |

« There is no overriding « epic » in the Realms, but rather a large number of stories, adventures, and encounters going on all the time. [...]. Each creative mind adds to the base, creating, defining, and making their contribution to the rich diversity of the Realms. [...]. But Ed built the stage upon which all the plays are presented. Thanks Ed. » -FR Comic no.1

Any time some part of FR lore - pre-spellplague - gets some kind of attention, I would be very interested in reading it.

There is no indication the article was finished. |

"Caring for afterwards ...? Ker repeated this without understanding.
"After action, afterwards," the dragon said. "Choose the afterwards first, then the action. Fools choose action first."

Ahem, go for it!
(And maybe you send the odd inquiry about the "true" history of the Ilythiiri. )
I'd rather expect bald-faced elf whitewashing. And not from GothicDan.
