I dont know if you're still working on this story or not, but I will review it anyway.

Chapter 1: Careful of repeating "gatekeeper" at the start. it will stop the nice flow of your prose. I like some of the imagry. the Gatekeeper does seem just like an average joe who was put in that job. not professional at all. i hope that was the take you wanted with him. The girl...meh, dont know if i like her so far. interesting the thing with a gun.

Chapter 2: so far you seem to prefer titles to names. interesting style. interesting that you have this in present tense. "asks" "smiles" instead of the norm "asked" and "smiled." -- "grandfather’s time." - need a quote after time.

Chapter 3: "She had known too many people like herself." i liked that line. also, it was a very good end to this chapter. the details were nice, very well done. kudos

Chapter 4: Careful now of repeating "Storyteller" too much. it gets stagnant.

Chapter 5: Im more interested in Ebony than the storyteller. he kinda tends to bore me a bit. "I daresay you haven’t either, my swindling fraud" - i liked this line as well. maybe i missed it but what is the connection between Ebony and Cathan?

Chapter 6: I thought the part about Fae was interesting in this chapter and it was ended well

Chapter 7: The dialogue in this chapter was natural, with the accent and everything. well done. "likeable voice" is a little vague, however.

Chapter 8: hmm interesting twist with the sudden arrest of our storytelling friend.

overall this was a very well done story

this is a pretty good beginning and i like the direction this is going in. your description of the girl is really good but i was just wondering why she would be so open with the Gatekeeper. if she really were to sneak in to a city i doubt she would just show the first person she meets all of her lethal weapons. how does she know that the gatekeeper will be sympathetic to her and decide not to kill her? i just think it's a little farfetched that she would be so careless. however besides that it's all very well-written and i like the world you've created. good job :)
