Acknowledgements

I have had a lot of help putting this together, and would like to thank everyone who has helped me. Such as everyone who has read over my outline and made comments and everyone who has helped with research. I have received comments of unintended interpretations, which have actually been interesting and beneficial to the story.

I will try to put up the lists of the people who helped me and the sources I used. This is barely started, and will probably still have a lot of issues even when I am ready to make this public.

• If you have helped, and want to put your name up, put what you want to say somewhere (probably in the comment section here), and I will put it up. You can help site any of the other references as well.
• If you have information which would be useful you can list that here as well.
