I am a big fan of gothic and I must say this was a very nice explanation of xardas's life before the player comes in the game.

REALLY COOL! You described the events so well that I actually relived them after I've finished Gothic I. Really COOL? Can't you do another thing like this for Gothic II?

I'm happy to finally see a Gothic storey. Other than the occasional error it has a nice, if brisk, pace. I look forward to more.

That was good ^^
