Melody & Macabre

Trying out a few things...

I decided on a layout change. Hopefully you can still see everything alright. I decided upon a pre-made template, because I still SUCK at coding.

Fortunately, this one, I know for sure you'll be able to comment pages. Which I like. Go ahead, leave some comments. I appreciate any thoughts and opinions. ^_^

For those who have been wondering about the Latin phrases found throughout Scene 21, I've compiled this list (thanks to Wikipedia, haha).

PAGE 1 - "Amor Fati"
Love of fate. Basically, being happy with your place in life. Nietzsche apparently believed it to be more life-affirming than "memento mori."

PAGE 2 - "Autoritas"
Authority. Wikipedia says it referred to "the general level of prestige a person had in Ancient Roman society."

PAGE 3 - "Dura Lex Sed Lex"
The law is harsh, but it is the law.

PAGE 4 - "Nomen Est Omen"
The name is a sign. In this case, it refers to the names fitting the characters, and the assumption that the same goes for Melody.

PAGE 5 - "Exempli Gratia"
For the sake of example. Often shortened in colloquial speech nowadays as "e.g."

PAGE 6 - "Carpe Noctum"
Seize the night. Basically the nocturnal version of "carpe diem."

PAGE 7 - "Nil Nisi Malis Terrori"
No terror, except to the bad.

PAGE 8 - "Nihil Ad Rem"
Nothing to do with the point. Worse nice for that page. OR DOES IT?

PAGE 9 - "Cor Aut Mort"
Heart or Death.

PAGE 10 - "Flagellum Dei"
Scourge of God.

Final Note: I apologize to readers, but I'm going to take another week off. I need to catch up on comics, get a good cache going, so I don't keep stressing out with before-the-day work to finish a page. Plus, there are some personal issues I have to dwell upon. Erm... let's just say it has to do with Mel&Mac's overall theme.

EpicSaga will still update on Wednesday, since it's pretty freakin' easy to deal with. But Scene 22: The Key of Solomon will begin on April 12th.
