Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit

[Chagum12]

On this auspicious night when Moribito is finally returning to our airwaves, I wanted to let everyone know that I've finished my Moribito story.  Thanks to all who helped me with feedback on the way.  I hope you guys will read and enjoy it, but I must warn you that it's spoiler-heavy.  If you haven't finished the series or read the first book, you'll be spoiled big-time and some things won't immediately make sense.  I'm going to re-post it when all 26 eps have aired (we hope) but I know there are some on the boards who've seen the whole series so I thought I'd post now, too.

On the story itself...  It's not a short one, but focuses pretty heavily on character development, with lots of action too.   Which pretty much describes the series, really.    In any case, I hope some of you will give it a read and let me know your thoughts - I poured my heart into this one and it all comes from being inspired by this incredible story and loving these characters.  I hadn't written anything of this consequence in years, but I loved Seirie no Moribito so mucthat I was compelled to write this story.

Thanks - Dan

Now that the series is concluded, I hope you'll indulge me if a plug my Moribito story once again.  In addtion to the links below it's also on fanfiction.net:

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5064905/1/Beloved

and there are quite a few reviews there for you to check out.  I'm not being immodest if I say it's not a traditional fanfic - I really tried to do something in the style of the original novel.  It's novel-length as well, of course, but I had a lot of story to tell.  I do know pretty much what happens in the remaining novels of the series, and I incorporated some of those elements into my story (without being too specific).  While the plot takes place after the close of the already-translated Volume II, the story is my own interpretation of the events that might have immediately followed.

I hope you'll check it out and let me know what you think.  Thanks.
