Hey, here's a fun note.. I will be posting Part 5 *early* -- I'll be out of town next weekend, and probably won't be home to post it Sunday night. Therefore, it'll go up sometime on Friday! (:

Re: Nambese -- totally fabricated, pretty much on the spot. The only conscious decision in picking his name was that I wanted someone of African origin.
Re: ending -- this was meant to be something that is complete in its own right, but only one facet of a larger story. Writing a story about a hero is easy; I wanted to write about a normal person thrown into something much larger than he was, something that he only needed to escape rather than fix. There is more to the world, more stories to tell... whether or not they ever get written remains to be seen.
I just finished reading the prologue. Kinda complicated about the cloning and stuff. sounds interesting. Im gonna have to read the rest and ill tell u how i feel.
wow good stuff coil. how many words does a thesis have to be anyway? and id also like to see the stroy continued another few chapters i think u could do quite a good story from what u have begun. nice work keep it up
