Put a semicolon instead of a comma after "ripped faces" and a period after "lethal screams," starting a new sentence with "These spirits sing an infernal song."

Oh, and while "near" is not technically incorrect, "nearby" would be better.
Okay, I fixed the Banshee's scroll, edited chapter 2 alredy with it, thankyou very much Dezo

Ha! So something did happen to Karil! Vivio's in trouble... again... and I sooo think this is just starting. I wonder who the great evil is this time. Or what happened to make all these monsters suddenly appear (again).

Also,

Your friends have noted the typos for you so I have nothing to say. By the way, it reminds me of Doom in a certain way. When it involves a lot of demons and people getting killed and the main character (or maybe her friend) in trouble and so . Keep it up.

Oh, man, that was hilarious! I swear, I laughed through the entire roller-coaster of a helicopter ride!

Heh..."meatlike substance"...I swear, good meatloaf is hard to find! Vice and Shamal should do a cooking show together.

Though you definitely saved the best for last, since the single best line of the story is the Chapter 5 title.

You realize, however, that you've officially left yourself wide open for a great deal of epic-level nagging for getting the next chapter out...

Hey, thanks for the coments, all, also, thanks for the grammatic support, I think that chapter 2 is clear now

Well, things look really bad at this point, not only Vita looks unstopabvle, also it seems that Due & Jail beated the Mild Cha & Terran forces

I think that the Mexican and German soldiers are quite funny

This chapter remind me a line from the Intro in Mortal Kombat Armageddon

"Armageddon... has begun" O3O

PD: Hey Terran, I think something's wrong with the Musical theme video... I can't see it

Grammar Question: Hey people, I have a doubt on grammar, when the verb ends with a "y", adding the auxiliar "ing" wouldn't replace the "y" with the "i" on the verb? Like Play -> Plaing

Err... That's wrong...^^;;

You do not replace 'y' from the verb. You simply add '-ing' to the end.

Here are some examples:
  • stay -> staying
  • play -> playing
  • buy -> buying
  • apply -> applying
  • spray -> spraying
  • cry -> crying

Hope that helped. :3



Oh, and something has been bugging me too. As far as I know, the verb 'die' (meaning to stop living) is spelled as 'dying' in present-tense. But I've encountered the word 'dieing' here in FFT for a couple of times already.

It feels weird to me. But even the spell-checker of Firefox seems to indicate that it is a legitimate word. My MS Word and my trusty old dictionary, however, don't. How did it come to that? A mere variation in spelling between English-speaking countries...?^^;;

Damn you, now I will go around thinking about this all day. I didn't find anything other than that some regard it as a misspelling but I don't know if it's official. Wiki and google sure don't want to correct it.

I don't like it personally, even if it sounds the same. Someone figure it out before I go insane.

As far as I know, "dying" is the correct way of spelling it. I don't know why "dieing" doesn't set off spell checkers, but none of my references having an appropriate definition for "dieing." They all redirect to the correct way. Even Google gives no definite conclusion, beyond articles with bad spelling. When in doubt, just use "dying."

Ah well... It was really stuck in my mind so I went ahead and did some searching myself. >_>

Here's what I found. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/dieing

It says here that the verb 'die' should turn into 'dying' indeed.

However, 'dieing' also turns out to be a real word. O_o
The description says "To cut, form, or stamp with or as if with a die."
It corresponds to the noun 'dies', which is a metal piece used in pressing designs into softer metals.

Huu~...

I guess my old Webster's Desk Dictionary is no longer up to date... T_T ()

Dying is definitely the correct present continuous form for 'die' as in 'cease to live'.

But watch out for dyEing as in 'to dye my hair'.

As for dIEing i.e. cutting/molding, I'm not sure if it's now a neologism. I'd have thought you'd use 'die' as a noun only but then again, it's not everyday that I have to deal with that industry :P

fyi: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die_(manufacturing)

So please, your martyrs with life debilitating hero-complexes are DYING, not DIEING.

@EvilRickRick, I think it's a good idea to get more exposure to well written english while you're writing. Pick up a novel or whatever interests you - the more you read, the better your own grammar and spelling will be.

Three words almost exactly alike with three different meanings? English and their silly language.
