Re: OOTS #913 - The Discussion Thread
Well, there goes Nale.
Spoiler
So the song runs on, with shift and change,
Through the years that have no name,
And the late notes soar to a higher range,
But the theme is still the same.
Man's battle-cry and the guns' reply
Blend in with the old, old rhyme
That was traced in the score of the strata marks
While millenniums winked like campfire sparks
Down the winds of unguessed time. -- 4th Stanza, The Bad Lands, Badger Clark

Re: OOTS #913 - The Discussion Thread
What just happened?
Nale can't be dead... He was such a good recurring villain! I doubt Elan can take both Tarquin and Laurin though.Last edited by Clarkson; 2013-08-21 at 12:25 AM.

Ah, crap. Here comes all the Tarquin fanboys/Nale haters. I hope he comes back somehow, just to spite them...

I... I wish I could say that was unexpected. But I saw it coming when Nale and Tarquin went for their private chat.

Wow. Guess there was only room for one family member arch rival for Elan.

Sabine has just flipped her lid, I suspect.

Elan wasn't very happy with Tarquin's actions.
That's... Interesting. After all Nale's done, Elane wasn't one bit happy with this.Last edited by Porthos; 2013-08-21 at 12:28 AM.

Re: OOTS #913 - The Discussion Thread
I laughed. Finally, Nale is dead. I am so happy, I can't even begin to express.
Good-bye, Nale. You'll be missed. But not by me.

To kill your own son is such a cold manner.
I think I see what Tarquin is truly made of...

Re: OOTS #913 - The Discussion Thread
That was...
I did not see that coming. I don't even know what's going to happen now. Sabine will freak, for sure, but would she be willing to join up with the Order to get her revenge? Is Elan going to attack Tarquin right now?School Fox by Atlur

Re: OOTS #913 - The Discussion Thread
It's a sad day for Nale's fans. So, for me too.
In which threads did people consider my responses to be readworthy? Why, a good question, here's an answer.

Caaalled it.

Re: OOTS #913 - The Discussion Thread
Holy crap! I'm stunned. Tarquin is one cold-blooded S.O.B.
*edit*
Also, what does this mean for Sabine? Her storyline was heading toward a choice between her bosses at the IFCC and Nale, or so I thought. Or do Sabine and Nale's soul now get to hang out at IFCC headquarters?Last edited by Darkefang; 2013-08-21 at 12:33 AM.

His own son also killed his best friend in a similar manner. I think familial ties get dropped at that point. Originally Posted by Jabberwok

Well...huh. That's definitely something Tarquin would do, and done in style. Fare thee well, Nale.

Re: OOTS #913 - The Discussion Thread
And this WAS a test for Nale. Just not the one half the forum thought.
Gotta admit, I have to wonder just how much Tarquin pissed Nale off as he grew up to hate the Old Man so. This went beyond 'disporpotionate retribution' to out and out hatred.
Living in his shadow much have been far too much for Nale.Concluded: The Stick Awards II: Second Edition

Re: OOTS #913 - The Discussion Thread
Wait, I think I know why the Giant was tight-lipped about Nale's alignment. We're going to see where he goes. If he is LE, he might go straight to where V and Sabine are.

Re: OOTS #913 - The Discussion Thread
Ok then. I believe this removes the Linear Guild from the storyline as a major force. It will be interesting to see what happens now between Elan and Tarquin.
I'm mostly here for Warframe and a tiny bit of RWBY.

Re: OOTS #913 - The Discussion Thread
Did not see that coming. I did not see that coming.
But what also really surprises me is how Elan reacts. His arch nemesis just died, but still Elan reaction sounds more like his dearest friend got killed.

Well, it seems T's team didn't know Malak was dead. And Nale got quite the talking to.
