The Island of Lost Ideas (Ramasubramanian G S)

(unfortunately, the original seems to have disappeared off Caferati)

Are you planning to post more chapters? Very engaging writing. Especially the part in the first chapter where he backtracks to ask why they think he is impartial - that he doesn't ask the question right away, but thinks of it as an afterthought. Small fact, but what a huge difference it made - being lifelike, instead of logical made everything that followed it look real as well. We try to order events logically, and it seems stagey, and not natural.

Reading your first chapter, somewhere in the middle, my mind started to go off tangent trying to finish that Chapter as a different kind of story. I don't usually ask this, but would you mind if I tried that and posted it?
