Ksnyatin Point, Part 15
Author's note: I got rid of that... chapters thingie. Ksnyatin Point consists only of parts now. :-)
(I am sure that there was more I wanted to mention, but I want to sleep so badly that I can't remember any of it. Anyway, Chapter Part 16 will be finished tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, so I'll say it then (um, it might be that I simply ( Read more... )

And I love how you handle the morality issue, the "is xxx really a murderer, and all those questions and mystery behind who is bad and good, or if there really is a bad and good, for I think KP is full of grey.
Questions and my opinions :P
- No black, no white, just grey, since Jareth murdered to defend himself, but you know, I don't know, I still think Jareth is sort of guilty, for he sees a man with a gun, pointing at him, and he just shoot at him, maybe this is not a question of morality, instead of a question of what kind of environment KP is? His two reasons of murder is either, he knows that person (or he wants that person), or lastly, that's the way with KP, kill the person first before he kills you, because this is not a really good world out there.
- But, meh, I think it's not the latter, because there was quite a coverage on the murder, which leads to this, what does Jareth knows?
- And I was wondering, the population of KP, mostly all of them are Elders right, and they just want to die in their homeland, and the rest are teenagers? So, I was wondering, where are the adults, since you need the adults to have the teenagers? Did they moved out, or their jobs require them to get out of town? Or do they know something the teens don't?
- Extra, Lucia's mother, I don't know, I just have a bad feeling towards her.
Oh, and sorry for all the qns, though you need not answer them. I just wanted to voice them out, and actually, I have plenty of other qns I want to ask, since, I have been catching and reading on KP since the prologue, but haven't gotten around to commenting, but :P I don't want to spam you with buttload of stupid qns.
And, I just wanted to tell you how amazing you are, the sims fit the world, their facial features make them feel all dead and hollow, and that takes time, even the sets take time, so woah, awesome work out there. :D

- Actually, Jareth has a third reason of murder but it's not going to be revealed soon... However, it doesn't make him "white area" or less guilty.
And yeah, I don't really believe that there's pure evil or pure good in the world, everything is grey. As I said, there's only one character who doesn't do something evil at some point (I don't want to say who that is yet, but clearly it's not Jareth :D ). Others are a bit like Goethe's Faust, ya know, seeking a greater good, but doing sins on their way to it.
- Talking about the teens and elders...
One thing, most of the people who try to move out of Ksnyatin just don't fit anywhere else, they spend their lives trying to but tend to move back there at the end of their lives anyway. I guess that this town simply gives them some very specific experiences and they just can't forget them completely.
Second, Ksnyatin is undergoing some sort of economical/moral/whatever crisis, so things weren't always like that.
Do adults know something the teens don't? Well, maybe. Some of them do, some of them don't. (:
([i] Third[/i], you don't need adults to have teenagers. For example, William was created in CAS, but please don't tell him that, because he still thinks that he was born in game and has parents. Even if he's almost 20 y/o. Poor thing D: )
And thanks for all your kind words. (:

- I love the idea of people being grey, and their grey being affected by the people, their environment and well, just about everyone, and your comment pretty much reminds me of a nice quote, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions."
I think the underlying themes behind your story pretty much encompass the idea behind the quote. :D
- Woah, I wonder what could have made them feel this way towards the town, and lol, I meant the population of adult, as in, in the realism of the story, not in the game, ha, so sorry for my weak lack of presentation, of what I wanted to convey. :P
- Then, I take it, that the adults are out and away from town (and busy working)
- Extra note, I always had a soft spot for William, for he is endearingly cute.
- The economic/moral crisis that Ksnyatin is experiencing, it doesn't have anything to do with the forest, ehh? Ksnyatin is scary, I think I will pee myself off, if I ever have to live in such a town, the idea of trees growing into my room, scares the heck out of me. :P

And well, what could have made adults feel this way... I think that waking up and finding a forest in your backgarden might be shocking enough. :D Lucia is not the first who experiences this kind of thing.
- And I agree that William is cute, but I still prefer Jack. I just love how he always ends up looking a bit mad or evil (or like Pete Doherty - what a heck?), even if he is doing something nice.
- Well, in this case, the forest reflects the whole situation in the town, but there's no relevance between these two things.
Also, economical crisis was important to mention, because if Ksnyatin was a rich place, it would be really strange that things happening there (the murder of a girl 2 years ago, trees, etc) aren't in front pages of national newspapers (and that would ruin the story), but now it's just a place that nobody cares about.
