Hi All,

just like some people here, I asked myself how to start with fiction writing. The obvious way would be to read the background stories, the "canon" and then build into it. The goal being that the new story fits into the EVE world as seamlessly as possible.

I did not go that route and just started to write what I felt could be a good story. I therefore deviate from the canon quite a bit. If I continue this project (and that depends on the feedback to some extend) I shall be more diligent with that.

So, with these caveats out of the way, here is the link to my new website and Chapters 1-3. Note that this site is not for you if you expect stories to be exactly EVE canon or if you expect the stories to be short and full of flawless, strong-chinned military heroes.

They did warn him about pain, nausea, blurry vision and memory loss. Then they made him sign a waiver absolving the doctors, nurses, their families, friends and pets from all liability for all eternity.

If they had just taken him under the anesthetic and sold his body parts, they would have walked free. But they did operate and they had not lied about the side effects. The memory loss prevented him from knowing why he was in pain.

And so, when he woke up, all he knew was the pain. He had no words for the pain, had no words at all and did not know time. For all it mattered, pain defined who he was for all eternity. His howl and screams were primal, had no language, showed no hope and only subsided when he had not one ounce of strength left in his body. They could have given him pain killing boosters. But those were illegal and expensive in Amarr space and the small stash was given only to customers with very deep pockets or very powerful friends. He had neither, of course.
