I don't know... This story is getting rather boring and predictable.. With the General continually being put in different places through predictable bickerings to her predictable nasty repsonses..
The people's continual snivelling ibehavior is getting a little tired and routine as well.
But such is the fate of many a gentle GTS story that hasn't the courage to put trajedy into it..
I suppose this humdrum routine is the eventual outcome of every boring gentle story in the end. For without real drama or trajedy, there's just not many places you can go or explore.
As a result, I do not envy the task of those writers who go down the sad gentle GTS path..
But, the story is not over yet and perhaps this particlar author is going somewhere with all of this kindness and groveling...
Only time and paragraphs will tell.
Author's Response:
Sorry you're not enjoying it. We may just have fundamentally different tastes. I don't consider the gentle GTS genre to be sad or boring. It appeals to me more than most violent GTS stories (which I find just as boring and predictable as you're finding this one). This story is motivated by my personal fetishes so I'm including scenarios that I find sexy while exploring themes and ideas that interest me. Your mileage may vary.
I didn't think that the story was without drama or tension though. The drama comes from the conflict between the two societies, not the violent actions of a giantess. Maybe that's not of interest to you but with the armies now gathering for war, that will come more to the forefront.
If you still find it boring, well, I don't know what to tell ya. I'm writing primarily for me here while hoping that others enjoy it.

I think I'll add this story to my favourites now.
On a somewhat related note, I can't understand why motheistic religions hate Pagans so much... Pagan is loose term and means different things to different people.
For example here's a quote from the Qu'ran:
Sura 9:28 from the Qur'an: "O ye who believe! Truly the Pagans are unclean; so let them not, after this year of theirs, approach the Sacred Mosque."
Author's Response:
Religions often feel that their god and their truth is superior so anyone who thinks otherwise is backwards and primitive. I find that kind of silly, since the other religions they look down on probably feel the same way about them.
That said, monotheism vs. paganism is not really what we're dealing with here. North Piconorea has no gods, while South Piconorea has their Goddess.

The most LOL-ish chapter, yet! :-D
I have to wonder, though, which part of the treatment she liked best. The bikini wax? Or, the shrunken man-icure? ;-)

I'm in love with this story, I've seen it up for a while, but never bothered to read it, you sir or madam, have just gained another fan!

Incredible story. An the details are finaminal. Cannot wait to see what happens next. It's so awesome that they actually had a throne in Vera's size. Can't believe they didn't clip her toe-nails first though lol, but the whole pampering scene was great.(wonder if the 'goddess' that arrived there before Vera was if nothing else a little power mad, because it would have taken the tines forever to build it unless she helled with it) can't wait to see if there will be a little bit said bout that, maybe from the queen.
Hopefully now that her feet are clean she will be given slippers of some kind.
But I wonder if they have a throne in her size, what else do they have?
aaron(sorry for all the ridiculous questions)
Ps how did they get paint rollers , or are they not as primitive as everyone thinks?
Author's Response:
Your questions aren't ridiculous, they're perfectly legitimate. Wish I could answer but I'm still working out some of those details. Heh. I would say that the Goddess did have a bit of a power trip. The fact that they considered her a goddess and she didn't correct that notion is rather telling.

I just finished reading all of your stories. It was a very very enjoyable ride and this one is no exception :)
I love your characters in general, your style and the playful stuff. Outstanding job, you have fans out there so keep on !

Holy crap, all of them?! Thank you very much for your support!

Sought to penetrate THEIR defenses? Fallowmark couldn't even escape from Vera's defenses(lol!)!
Seriously, though: your depiction of the Piconoreans' socio-political dichotomy is quite well done. Ultra-conservative religious fanatics vs. radical rationalists. And, each just as militaristic as the other. Very plausibly rendered!
Author's Response:
Thanks! I knew if I ever did a Gullivera story, I'd want some Jonathan Swift style satire in it. That often seems to get left out of these Gulliver-inspired stories.

Hey this chapter was really interesting. It reminded me of the voyage of James Cook to the island of Hawai'i. The people he met saw him as a great figure and his arrival coincided with the Makahiki, a Hawaiian harvest festival of worship for the Polynesian god Lono and some of the Hawaiians believe him to be the god Lono because of how he arrived at the island.
Perhaps you subconciously based this scenario on that bit of history?
Author's Response:
Well, not that speficially, as I hadn't heard that story. But there are other tales in which someone is thought of as a god by the locals. Glad you enjoyed this in any case.

I hate to say it. But, I think Vera is gradually going to prove Fallowmark right. What Bugs Bunny would call "toining into a terrible Frankincense Monster!"

This is awesome! I really enjoy your use of bombast in the Piconoreans' speech and observations.
Now... if only she would swallow people intentionally... That would make my day.

This story is great. Absolutely love how Vera carries herself. Loved how Vera was walking through the town an had foot her over fleeing crowds but just held it in place so they could escape underneath while bits of gravel wasfalling on them. Then she does the whole Godzilla roar which was very cute.
Felt bad for the poor girl that fainted though.
I'm sure Vera is really starting to enjoy this giantess thing.
Can't wait to see what happens in the south lol.

I have to say I really I really like Vera's playful attitude. She doesn't want to ruin anyone's life, but that isn't going to stop her from enjoying herself as much as she can. I also like the part where she eats the tree. (I guess that's one way to overcome the shortage of food problem ;-)
Author's Response:
Yes, playful but gentle giantesses are my favorite. Just because she's not violent or murderous doesn't mean she's a pushover.

Why did you have to end it where you did? Cliffhangers are so annoying.

Really enjoyed this most recent chapter. Do you plan to make her get drunk with power? Or keep her gentle? Either path you take I can't wait for future chapters! Keep it up
Author's Response:
She will likely stay gentle. That's my preference in terms of giantess scenarios. But as you can see in this chapter, Vera is becoming much more familiar with the little people and more likely to flaunt her power.

Ah, I can't wait to meet the southerners. Pagans never did anything wrong. It's the organized religions (i.e. monotheism) who have forced their beliefs on others. That's just how I feel, though I don't want to get into a big argument about this.

Author's Response:
I agree with you on organized religion. I have issues with it, as can be seen in this story. That said, I'm not sure pagans are completely innocent. Some early forms of paganism practiced human sacrifice after all. All religions have the potential to both help and hurt. It's all in how they are used. Like anything, you need moderation and respect for those who disagree with you.
