*takes a deep breath*
Okay, I'll give it a shot. Try everything once and the fun things twice, eh? Anyway, what I wrote first for the Prompt was basically the dialogue with stage directions (*he sits,* she follows, etc.). I went back and tried to fill in enough story around it to make it half sensable to people who don't live in my head. It actually sparked an incident for some characters that have been wondering around in my imagination and I started to see how they might fit together. Anyway many thanks to
poetigress for hosting the prompt and
vixyyfox for encouraging me to give it a try. The good you see is probably inspiration from such wonderful people. The parts that suck are mine :p

Manacle has been wandering around in my imagination for some time, and I'm sure I'll write more because I'm interested to see where this goes myself ;)
I'm working on the first part of the little adventure that this piece starts in the middle of, but it has been slower going -- less talking and more action to keep track of :P That and I keep finding such wonderful gems and shiney things in other people's galleries to read . . . . :)

The history of the Quarentine and how this world came to be seperated from the other Realms was in response to the prompt, but some of the rest, especially Manacle himself, has been wandering around in my head for some time. I always had trouble figuring out how, in a fictive world where tree-igniting, lightning-calling and shape-shifting magic still existed, even in a stunted form, I could find a reason for modern "mundanes" to be so world-wide ignorant of it. ( Obliviate! *grin* ) The prompt gave be that keystone, and the rest is working itself out as well as my fractured time and attention span allows . . . .
