Ack! The story is really heating up! I can't wait for the next update!!

How sad! Is he dead?!

I can't seem to tell who is the protagonist and who is the antagonist! You are quite skilled indeed!

I am curious as to whether it was really Nial who aided in the capture of Miss Bradana. Other than my own mindless questioning, excellent.

Interesting. Guild of Theives. Nice job.

Intriguing. I am in envy of the way you develop your plot. Subtle and sophisticated. Excellent.

Artfully mysterious. Dark... I like it.

Hey there Mr. Robert sir. Tis Chris Kottong. Love your story.

Good grief, I guess you took that "convoluted" comment to heart. O_o
Still, great stuff, I'd kill to have your knowledge of how to devise Guilds and guards and all this pseudo-political intrigue. I'd also kill to have your vocabulary. >_>()
*cough* Anyway, you definitely have a gripping way of writing. Even with the many details, I very rarely see places where the details don't pertain somehow to the plot. I have to admire anyone who can make something so detailed without making it boring to read.
You have an amazing talent for confrontational scenes. I noticed this in the first couple of chapters, but it just keeps showing up again and again. It's what keeps you reading, the successive meetings of different thieves and unknown characters.
I'm a tiny bit confused about a couple of things, but I'm guessing they'll come to light as you write more. I figure, as long as I'm grasping that everyone's using everyone else, I'm still mostly on top of things. :P
I only saw two spelling mistakes, "furniture" and "creaked", both in Chapter 6. That was it for grammatical stuff.
Keep writing. I have to check this more often, now that I'm back from vacation. :)

Loved the dexcription of the lighthouse. Endless posibilities there.
And loved the cliffhanger at the end.

That was a great prologue! Following your thief's movements was thrilling and I now need to know more about that scroll and the shadowy figure that brought it there. Good work.

So far it is extremely good! I love the level of description and characterisation so early on. There's not really anything negative I can say about it, which is odd for me.
Anyway, I will undoubtedly continue reading when I have the time. For now, keep writing!

Loved the story. Well written and detailed. This coming from a fequent reader, you use details most would think of as not needed and a waste. I don't. I love them. And the plot...I can't wait to see it develop further.

Whoa.
I wasn't sure I'd like this when I saw the very straightforward, deliberate description in the beginning, but you hide things behind what seems straightforward. Wow. Your talent for description is one that most do not have. Others may excel at imagery, but you excel at what is not told...
This is an intriguing plot. I love stories about thieves, but this is so delightfully convoluted. Great stuff, great twists, and I've only read a prologue and two chapters. ^_^()
One grammar mistake: "...and there still many old artifacts..."
I think you're missing a word. But other than that, I see nothing else. Good job. :)
I'll have to check the rest of this out later when I have more time. This is great stuff, all around.

Your prolouge is really good. I haven't read the other chapters yet though.
