This fic tells the story of Phantasy Star IV if Chaz had been struck by the black wave instead of Alys...

(Hey thoul can you go ahead and delete Phantasy Star IV The End Of The Millenium (Another Story), since the other one was a rough draft and this one is the real one lets take the other one off the boards ok. Thx)

Wow, talk about a leap over the rough draft, Kaleos! I mightily enjoy alternate ending/story things like this where you take one event, change it, and you have a whole new story. The only thing I saw that could really use improvement is a lot of missing commas and some other technical sort of things. If you don't have this already, maybe you should have someone else proofread your work before you post it to help you catch those stupid technical details.

But otherwise, it's pretty well-written, keep it up.

Wow, that is a great improvement to the draft. It was so engrossing that I didn't notice any technical errors. If you continue on this track, you could easily have one of the best Phantasy Star fanfics.

I actually put more time into making this unlike I did with the rough draft..

Wonderful work Trey. Love it. I agree 100% with Thoul. Putting it in the form of a Journal by Alys was a nice touch. Keep up the great work.

A couple minor spelling tics here and there, but I like this story- I can't help but wonder just how it's going to go now that Alys and Hahn are party members instead of Chaz and Rika! Well done, Kaloes! ^_^x

Hmmm...chapter 2...well, Kaleos, this time, you much improved all the technical things as far as I could see. Still a few here and there, but not nearly as many as as in the first chapter. Keep up that improvement! I love the different party, and it's got me thinking if in this draft as the rough one, Demi will actually stay with the party instead of leave after Zio's done. If so....yay.

Welllll, I finally read through this (and I wanna look through other things if I have the time), and I am enjoying the story thus far! I agree with Caged Wolf about the technical aspects that should be looked over like when you mentioned that the group was exhausted from the previous battle -- Demi healed them with her medical power before the fight in the game, but it's up to you if you choose to have that small change. ^_^

Anyhow, keep up the good writing! I am looking forward to the next addition of this story; I have to say, this is one of the most creative ideas I've seen as far as PSIV fanfiction goes.
