[Story] Dig In: The Jericho VII Conflict -- Final Edition (COMPLETE)
Eric Nylund's [i]Fall of Reach[/i] touched briefly on the Jericho VII conflict, but it did not bring to life the struggle of the average Marine. With its original release four years ago, [i]Dig In: The Jericho VII Conflict[/i] brought you down into the trenches in an all-out battle for survival against the numerically-superior Covenant. [i]Dig In[/i] told the story of a squad of regular Marines struggling to fulfill their duty in the face of death. It told a mature story. It told a story no one had ever read before.
[b]This is the final edition of this story. It is the best version to date and posted in time to get caught up before you read the sequel, [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=47298771][i]Entrenched[/i][/url].[/b]
[url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=47298771][i]Entrenched[/i][/url] will be my final work. With that in mind, I hope to share this series of stories with as many people as possible.
[quote][i]Dear Reader[/i],
I began writing fan fiction stories back on the Halo 2 forum in the first days of Halo fan fiction six years ago. After a long hiatus, I started writing this story four years ago. I finished the first four chapters and entered a contest in which I came second place on a now defunct Halo website. With Halo 2 having passed and Halo 3 far on the horizon, I stopped.
Two years ago I revisited this story and finished it by adding another six chapters. I released the story on the forum and in private groups to praise and positive response. Now, two years later and in advance of the coming sequel, I present to you the final edition of this story. I have gone through the entire piece to make edits and to prepare for you the final and best edition yet.
As always, I would like to thank all of my readers over the past six years. Thank you for your support and your enthusiasm. It is much appreciated in every way. Your [url=http://www.bungie.net/Online/Halo3UserContentDetails.aspx?h3fileid=32743215] maps[/url], machinima projects, and comments never cease to amaze me. Thank you and I hope you have enjoyed following Tom and the squad through thick and thin.
I'd especially like to thank [url=http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page]Halopedia[/url] and [url=http://halo.bungie.org/]Halo.Bungie.Org[/url] for their great resources. That being said, I still couldn't have done it without the support of the members of [url=http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/mjolnirbattletactics/Group/GroupHome.aspx]Mjolnir Battle Tactics[/url], and the members of the fan fiction community--[url=http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/fanficfactor/Group/GroupHome.aspx][i]wherever[/i][/url] they may be now.
I hope you all enjoy the story and look forward to the sequel, [i]Entrenched[/i], available now in [url=http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/mjolnirbattletactics/Group/GroupHome.aspx] Mjolnir Battle Tactics[/url] and on this forum.
Enjoy,
