Well, Testimonial Midgard is over now. 5 years of the culmination of my imagination has finished. It, admittedly, went out with alot less interest than I would have liked, but I am still happy that I finished the story.

I think the story of Requiem, Revenant, and the AI's meant alot to me. The last few chapters of the story were very much an emotional thing for me to write. The showdown for Revenant was something that took a long time to finally happen, but I think it was a fantastic ending.

The story has grown organically since I started the story when I was 15. It started from a basic server story about a cranky Wizard named Leoric and bloomed into a 10-chapter novel about a grand conspiracy set from the origins of the internet over 50 years ago. While it does have its flaws, I'm glad I had a chance to write it.

I don't want to continue the story as I think it should be ended after chapter 10, but I have written "The Untold Stories" as well, which is a better written set of stories set during chapters 7-9 of the story. I enjoyed writing them alot. I still can enjoy adding to the wiki, but I'm a little sad I can't write anymore on the story.

If anyone else reads TM's full story, please let me know if you have any feedback.
