[Torg] Future of "Storm Knights" Site

This came up in a discussion over on the boards, and I wanted to touch  
on it here.

I haven't updated the Storm Knights site in over 16 months. This is  
because I have fallen ill with a pretty weird disease that has, to all  
intents and purposes, crippled me. I haven't been able to write, or  
even read more than a paragraph or two, for the last year (which is  
why I've become a lurker).

There is no treatment and no cure. Fortunately, it's never fatal.

This disease lasts 2-12 years, then goes away. I'm on year 3. So, for  
the next 0-9 years, I'll be unable to do much of anything.

(That seems a long time, and it is, but I've been a member of the list  
for 13 years, and Jim, Saxon, and Smooge for 18. Somehow, time passes.)

What does this mean for Storm Knights?

I will be unable to do any further work on my projects, completed or  
uncompleted. What there is now, is probably all there will ever be. I  
regret this more than I can say.

This means I won't complete my "21" axiom rewrites, my Magic system  
work, my Tharkold rewrite, and parasitic Orrorsh (among many other  
things).

I have two articles that are essentially finished: Cosm Design and the  
"21" Magic Axiom. I hope to post these sometime, but as of right now I  
am unable to complete them.

Unfortunately, even after I return to normal it seems as if I will not  
have the time to devote to designing/writing new stuff for Torg, so  
even then I will likely not be able to contribute anything to the fan  
community.

There are many projects that I was working on, all of which are  
uncompleted to various degrees. I cannot add to them, or refine them,  
but some are finished enough to post them, even in very raw form.

I anticipate posting those fragments I am most excited about, when and  
where I can. Perhaps, these will prove of some use to someone. If  
nothing else, they will surely be conversation fodder.
