This is very intriguing so far.  I like the diary format as an opener... and now I need to move on to the next chapter to see how this diary was discovered and translated, I think/hope.  The editing and grammar was very good.  I don't read much online anymore, but I have enjoyed this story so far and I hope you continue it and that this message leaves you much encouraged.  More people should be reading this and giving an opinion.  So says me, and I'm the bar wench... I should know.

thank you Black Rose.  Corvis and Mandorin helped me alot.  Corvis did the editing.  I owe them both a lot for all their help.

Thank you, Triton.  You give me too much credit and too little to yourself.

Nice so far. I like the style of dialogue, and the discriptions. You may wish to at some point consider adding a tiny bit more discription about the beast here, just to further invest your readers. While I'm drawn in to read the next chapter I could be completely addicted.

Good job so far,

I'm glad that you liked the prologue of my story.  I hope that you like the next 2 chapters too, but I might need to do some work on them to make them better.
