Now that you have covered all the basic characters. it should be interesting to see where you go from here. I like the series though - interesting concept, and not at all that far from what could someday (I hope not!) become reality.

Re: Tales of Pulkritude
Charlie and Eric: Thanks for your kind words. Although I keep telling myself that Im writing for myself, that I dont care what others think, my frequent trips to the message board to see if anyone has posted comments about my stories, belie that assertion. Im glad youve enjoyed Tales of Pulkritude.
Although this is a cut and slash story-to post here someone much lose something, Ive tried to make it something more than just that. Theres plenty of sex, too, but, if boys were raised as Ive described, in an environment where there were no taboos and sex were encouraged, rather than repressed, I think that there would be.
I think that Pulkritude is plausible, given the conditions which Ive proposed, that men must be castrated to live. Would not women possibly regard men as do the women of Pulkritude? Im attempting to convey the despair that the men feel, the loss, of not only their balls, but the love that they experienced for each other while boys in the compound.
Ive come to care about the characters, to feel their pain.

As to where this will lead, I dont know. I enter each tale with some basic thoughts which come to me while riding my bike, or some other endeavor which allows my thoughts to flow. When I sit down at the keyboard, I never know, myself, how the tale will end.

Thanks, Mac. I would have included you in the previous reply, but I didn't see your comments until after I posted it.

Great stories, Slammr!
You also managed to create an interesting and plausible world which I believe is vital to any good fantasy story.
I would love to read more tales from Haawaayee.

Re: Tales of Pulkritude
Slammr,
In your previous post you said:
Believe me, you are doing an outstanding job! the despair, the loss of all that we all take for granted every day, comes out loud and clear.
After reading about "The Queen" today, I sense that the females, even though they are in a position of power, or ownership, aren't enjoying it any more than the males are.
Super job, Slammr!
And as has already been said, the entire scenario is frighteningly plausible.
