Poll Question:
The Sylath's Outwatch Project
A while ago I tried to create a storyline bible for Ashan, like the one I made for the old MM Universe (and still haven't finished...  ). It was planned to house the plot, including every tiny little detail in the storyline (maybe even making sense out of some of it), plus the timeline and any official artwork. And it's here:
http://sylath.wikispaces.com/
But after a while I decided it wasn't worth bothering with, since I had other things to do with the limited time I had. Then I played Dark Messiah for real, and decided that there's *some* hope there, if only because it makes an effort at dialogue, cancelling out the cheese-laden campaigns of Heroes V 
A sample article is here, I sort of finished most of it:
http://sylath.wikispaces.com/Raelag
So now that I've remembered this psuedo-bible, my question is: Would anyone care for me to continue it, or will I delete it / let it rot away?

Continue with it, Ceph. I would be very happy to help you, since I'm also a lore fanatic (even tough I don't show it on forums).

Hmm... I see you have a picture for Sareth, where did you get it? I thought you never got to see him. (which was good, imo)
Awesome work anyway, keep it up!
EDIT: Hmm... I just noticed that Dark Messiah: Elements picture, Sareth's not a bit like I imagined him

Cool, a lore database of Ashan. Why didn´t you tell it before.

Very interesting, I could help.
We will pretty much need to get used to Ashan enjoy since that will be the universe the future of Might and Magic and HoMM games will stick too.
But why Sylath and not Shalassa?
Shalassa is the dragon of water and wisdom after all.

Well, nobody's voted against me continuing it, so I will. If any of you also want to work on it, just HCM me and I'll happily help you set up an account to edit anything you like with.
@Adrius - it's from the Dark Messiah HV map.
@DarkAvatar - because.
@Xerox - Sylath (like me, and the wiki) isn't necessarily wise, he's described as the one who gets impatient with everybody else for failing to understand him. It fits

No changes for over one month in the wiki. Is the project dead again?

Actually I'm writing the articles here and planning to add them to the wiki later on, when more of them are done. I tried a more organised approach here than with TST.
Zamfir also has an account now and can edit whatever he likes, but he hasn't done anything.

Ok. Then I shall not bother your work more.

I think he meant he won't question me on what I'm doing anymore, even though checking to see if the project is alive is hardly bothersome.
But thanks for the 'defence' Azagal

Oops, sorry. I was a little caught with other things. I'll add those artworks today, like I promised.
But I'm afraid I can't do more (now). I haven't finished the games yet, so my articles may have flaws.

Oh no worries, take your time. Just wanted to be sure whether you're interested or not.
As for articles, you can post up anything you like and I can easily correct any mistakes. I've (repulsively enough) memorised the storyline.

Sorry for resurrecting this but maybe this thread may help you. I read only the first few paragraphs since it's huge but it looks promising

It looks good. But I think Ceph already has the dialogues.

That's some very good work actually, but indeed I already have all of the game's dialogues. Thanks Ashie
