Z and J, P and F, G and K, these all tend to get mixed up.
Like the Maple Kandiva (level 64 bow), it's supposed to be "Gandiva" which is a legendary bow that belonged to Arjuna (whom the level 100 overall, the "Arzuna", is supposed to be named after) in Hindu religion. But they mixed up the G/K and the Z/J and the meaning was completely obliterated. It's like 95% of the time when they are given these choices they pick the wrong ones.

And one of the most popular, L and R.
Anyways, I can't wait for CWKII to come out so we can get the story!

I remember reading somewhere that the Black Magician casting spells without a staff or wand was a sign of his great power. Yet, Firebrands seem to do the same quite easily. It's not as if they are very powerful; they're only 90, after all. Hint?

I personally find it funny how player translations are better than the Professional Nexon ones, why can't Nexon use someone else's tranlations? Magatia would be more complete.

Since Crimsonwood Keep is now complete, are there going to be any storyline updates about it?

I'm going to use a combination of the original "Anecdotal" method and the standard "Traveler" method. This will hopefully convey the parts that happened in the past and those that happen in the present clearly and easily.

Isaac,
I would like just to thank you for this Maple's Story =D
I'm currently translating all the storyline to Hebrew, for an Israeli MapleStory' forum. I hope to finish it before the passover (3 more weeks)..
Keep on the good job!

Isaac, did you stop writing the story or what? I'm really curious to read the other parts like the Grandmasters' one. Even if I've done all the quests, after a while, I can't really remember everything, and a written summary would be great.

It takes a long time to write, especially the crimsonwood parts since I have to go through hundreds of screenshots rather than just look at some raw text. Just haven't had much time to work on it as of late.

Oh, I see. Well, that's not a problem, just please don't forget about it! =P
And my congratulations for your other work anyway, all the Maple's Story is just great and it must have taken a lot of time for you to write it!

Is there a part in the GPQ where it gives a approximate date for the destruction of Sharenia?
