This is the English translation of the very successful tale of the adventures of a megalomaniac warlock: Synapse. Originally written in French, the story is currently a few hundred pages long. At first, it was just written for the fun of it, but as time passed, it became increasingly popular, and turned into a fully grown tale, and is now arguably the most popular WoW-based fan fiction on the French forums (60 page long thread, about 85 000 views). As I came across it one day, I thought that it was a shame that something as silly as a language barrier prevented this tale from being enjoyed by people around the world.
So here it is in English. While I’ve learnt my English in the USA, I’ve tried to keep the translation’s English as British as possible (for many reasons, but they aren’t really relevant here).
About the story itself: I am posting the seven first chapters. They aren’t very long, and are mostly about Synapse – the main character – and her very, very, very, VERY special demons (you’ll see what I mean as you read on). It’s not very long, so just sit back, relax, and enjoy. I’ll be posting more in a short while, so as to catch up, little by little, with the French version (which is now well over 30 chapters and approximately 400 pages long – 400 pages of pure delight).
Last, just to avoid any confusion: all credit goes to the magnificent goddess Synapse, who wrote all of this great stuff. I’m just a translator, so keep your cheering for her!
And now, time for the story.
Edit: I'd like to point out that you can also find the most recently posted chapters here : http://tribulations.synapse.free.fr/en/Synapse/Chapters/Chapters.html

Three cheers for Nävis who hosts the website :)
Oh, and horrible of me to have forgotten it, the Warlock's Den also hosts the Tribz (http://www.wowmb.net/forums/showthread.php?t=17321&page=1). Thank you Warlock's Den too :)
Edit again: The French thread has just hit 100 pages, and is well over 140k views (keep in mind that as it is read only by the french-speaking community, this is relatively insane). ALL HAIL THE GODDESS!
