I agree with Pixis ,it does seem odd. Good chapter and as always, happy to see you update! Your stories are amazing.
Author's Response:
I might explain that in the story but incase I can't find a good way to work it in I'll explain this one important aspect. To put it into perspective, look back on the history of slavery in the world, especially the US. Humans were enslaved, beaten, and killed by other humans who could comunicate perfectly with them. All around the world at different points of history this has been shown. So it's not too hard to imagine when you think of it that way, though it does become a great deal more sad.
Thank you for reading Nostory, as always.

i really enjoy the whole gentle giantess aspect that annallya is taking. can't wait to read more about her and hoping that updates will be more frequent. please?
Author's Response:
I try to update so frquently as I can, but it's quality vs quantity, am I right? I write this story whenever I have a second to myself, between school and work, so I'm progressing. Till the next update I want to say thank you so much for liking this

Good story so far. I'm interested to see where this is going and to learn more about Titan culture. How is it that they are aware of humans and can shrink to their size but still know so little about them? The idea of treating a sentient creature as a pet and giving it a new name seems very odd if that creature can speak your language.

But on a less depressing note, thank you so much for reading and enjoying my story so far. And I appreciate your analysis very much. It means I was able to make you think and look into something which isn't something I thought I could do with people. So thank you again

Wow! This is such a great story! Hope to see more updates.
Author's Response:
I'll be updating as soon as I can. School and work prevent me from binge writing like I wish I could. But somehow I progress. Until then thank you for your patience and thank you so much for reading and commenting!

Brilliant. Love the character development. Would like to see stories branch from this.
Please continue.
Author's Response:
I actually have ideas for sequel stories. That's why I love fantasy so much. It's as much a treat to write it because you get to see a new world unfold in front of you just the same as the reader. And I shall continue! Back to work right now!
Thank you so much for your comment

So are there male Titans? So far it doesn't seem like there are any, so do Titan women use human males to mate or do reproduce asexually or something? I wonder if she would be willing to ask Andrill to give her lessons? She doesn't seem to mind shoving aside her pride and asking Andrill for advice, so if she gains enough trust she might be able to shrink to his size and do sparing matches with him...Just an idea. Anyway, this story is amazing, and definitely one of the better stories out right now!
Author's Response:
Nah, I considered having Titans both male and female in this. But I dislike giant males and it didn't work as well with the plot I had in mind. And you're right about Annallya, she's more fascinated by humans than most of her race. So she would probably accept training from Andrill, but I don't know how serious she would take it. Imagine a toddler tried to teach you how to use a sword. And the sparring is a good idea, I may or may not use it . . . you'll have to see what I have in mind.
And thank you so much for the positive feedback for my story. It motivates me to keep on writing, and I'll be writing at my best for all of you guys.

Just read the first two chapters and I really hope you decide to add to this tale.
I don't wanna say I like everything but it's hard for me to find anything I dont like thus far. I cannot wait to see what happens when Annallya learns certain truths about humans and her people or maybe Andrill could be the right kind of instructor for her. You've literally given yourself tons of ways this story could progress and my hope is that you do write more.

PS
Titans being able to shrink and grow back at will is a nice touch as well because so few action/adventure/fantasy stories here ever use that method.
Author's Response:
My hope was that you guys liked it so that I could continue to write more. Now that I know you think it's good, I'll be getting to work as soon as I can. Thank you so very much aaron for liking my writing and giving such awesome feedback

Alright, I'll stick to commenting on the story and its overall quality.
Date: February 26 2016 4:14 AM Title: Chapter 2
Aww, what a touching chapter! I'm loving this story so far, I love how naturally you're developing this world, its not exposition dumps, its through dialog and present action that your world comes alive! And both characters in this chapter were amazing, I'm especially loving Andrill, hes a rugged, torn man who is obviously has been through shit. Also I gotta give you props for allowing your GTSs to be vulneareable, not many people here would allow their GTSs to ever be vulnerable to those smaller than them.
Author's Response:
Yeah, says a lot about Annallya's character doesn't it? And thank you for noticing the world developement. I took a lot of time to figure out how to describe things like that without flat out dumping the info in awkward and out of place conversations.

Finally this is the kind of story I've been waiting for. It's like going to the movies or something. I can feel the potential of this great story. With just the first two chapters. How long are you going to make this story? And will there be others to follow it?
Author's Response:
I can't tell you what that means to me to hear. Because this is something I've wanted to do, but haven't felt good enough to do for a long time. And if you like it in only the first two chapters, then that makes me excited for the future when it picks up speed. I don't know how long I'm going to make this story, hopefully it'll be my longest yet. And yes, there will be others. What I love about fantasy so much is that you make your own world for it to take place in. I look forward to expanding on that world.
So thank you again, for reading and enjoying my friend.

Author's Response:
Sorry I'm so behind on responding to these comments. I plan to have this story stretch out and go for at least a little while. And if it's not long enough, then I have ideas for sequels. This is probably going to be one of my favorite stories to write on this site. And I'm grateful that people like you are enjoying it. Thank you so very much for the positive feedback

Annallya looks like our Titan lead. I just find her reaction to Andrill really odd because if someone beat up my pet,I'd be furious and probably hurt him. Especially since she believes humans to be wild animals, he'd be dead or at least thrown out.
Wyrell is a mystery now and it looks like you are setting up characters in separate scenes first. I respect you trying a serious story like this, its good.
We wouldn't mind the occasional sex scene though :)
One last thing, if Titans are all female, how do they reproduce? Do they kidnap men and rape them to get their seed?
Author's Response:
Well she doesn't know how he got hurt, or at the hands of whom. For all she knows he could havee done it to himself, since he is supposed to be a savage. Or it could have happened in the wild.
The sex scene I've decided to save for a . . . . . rainy day ;)
And I've decided not to answer any questions like that last one, I'll let the future chapters do all of the talking.

A strong start. I'm intrigued. While there was not much interaction with the Titans yet, the description was very exciting and well done. I'm interested to see where this goes.
Author's Response:
Well my aim was to set a mood with this chapter, not do anything yet. Glad to hear it had the desired effect. And thank you for reading and commenting.
Date: February 24 2016 5:28 AM Title: Chapter 1
I can tell this will be a grimmer tale than your other ones. I'm used to lighter stories from you but as long as it is good, I have no issues.
I'm going to guess that Tayell is our hero and he will be the offering. Since he wasn't around the Titans will destroy his village and set him on the quest. The Titan he'll meet may be one of those who did destroy the village and is disturbed by what they did.
Will you be alternating between this and The Year We Went to War?
Author's Response:
Very astute observation.
I'm not going to tell how much of your prediction you were right about, I'll keep you guessing.
And yes, I will be alternating between this and The Year We Went to War, but it won't always be back and forth. Sometimes I'll crank out two chapters in a row of one story, or another. Depends on where inspiration strikes. And as always, thank you for reading.

Pretty good start although the chapter was a little too short for my tastes. And the giantesses didn't really do anything yet, they just kinda walked up and decreed something and then we cut to our hero running away through a forest for some reason. Not much info yet, not exactly the most exciting opening chapter but hey, I'm a fan of your other works so I've no doubt this will be a good one!
Author's Response:
Yeah I know. I have a lot of ideas for how I want this story to progress, however I have to build up to that first, can't rush it. This was just an opening chapter to set the mood.
