<title>Credits</title>
<description><![CDATA[Well, that's it. After about seventeen months of this it's finally over. My feelings on the end? Well... they're rather mixed.

On one hand, I want to keep going to the end, but I know the quality would drop even further. I wouldn't be doing it because it's fun, it'd just be a chore that I feel needs to get done, and when something feels like that to me, I tend to not always do a good job. So, while I wish it weren't so, we have unfortunately reached the end.

As stated above, I thank you all for lending me your characters and your support for this. I would have said dollars as well, but nobody donated. Which is good, because I'm a firm believer in if you have a job to do, you do it. EtD isn't a job, it's a hobby, so I can drop it anytime I please. But if I got paid to make a comic, it'd be a job, so I'd have to see it through to the end.

Anyway, thanks again to everyone, especially Rokas for putting up with all the things we said about him in the beginning. If you want to see more form him and me, then just go to [url=http://www.drunkduck.com/Age_of_Ends/]Age of Ends[/url], which, as it appears to me, is starting to bring out some more potential in both of us. By this stage, after 350 pages, we'll probably be so much better than before.

And so, I close one final time and hope you will also join myself and Rokas in our future projects, and find much more enjoyment in them as you did in this.

Until next time

<title>Epilogue</title>
<description><![CDATA[Welcome to the end. And before anyone asks, no, there will not be an Enter the Duck 4.

With this page, I tried my best to wrap up all the loose ends and explain the previous page a little more. But, there are a few things that didn't make sense or were put in the story and now seem worthless because, as I said a little earlier, the story has actually ended incomplete. So, I will now fill you in on what was supposed to happen.

In sprite world, with just under two hours to go through the portal, Aussie sets up a beacon so that most of the virus attacks him. However, this only has an effect on the most base drones. Twin gets attacked by a new Morph and Drazi meets a new Piece. During the fighting, Kagomas wonders where Krisikas and Destined_Light have gotten to. Chapter nine would then end with Twin defeating Morph and barely making it through the portal, before it shuts off. Drazi and Piece, however, at still locked in combat and both die with Sprite World's destruction.

Not knowing Drazi is still in Sprite World, Aussie and Eternity don't make it through the portal in time and use Eternity's teleportation abilities to end up at the place they were in during the prologue. The admin detect a piece of virus, which is Aussie, and teleport to where Aussie and Eternity are, firing without looking. Eternity dies and the admin realise how Aussie got his powers to hack into the site in the first place. Aussie then shows off his true potential by taking off his glasses and from out of his eyes, a dragon of pure light is summoned. The admin teleport away and Aussie takes Eternity's gun and fires a trench to bury her in. 

Meanwhile, all the remaining authors have gathered to discuss how to rebuild the site, when the creator shows them the scene I just mentioned, but without the sound. This gains some mixed reactions from the crowd and a war erupts. Some supporting the Creator and others sticking with Volte and the other admin. Aussie disappears for a while.

The war escalates, until a decision is reached. One final battle between both sides. They arrive and line up, with a few miles of no man's land between them. Just before they charge though, from the centre of no man's land sprouts a whole new form of virus, which attacks everyone. Aussie appears and this giant form of the new virus comes at him. He summons the dragon thing again, but it isn't powerful enough, until Ronson smashes one of the giant's legs. 

The virus retreats and the admin make a temporary truce with Aussie, while the supporters of the Creator apologise to the admins when it's discovered the Creator was responsible for the virus and Aussie is a part of the virus. Volte then reveals a code he had been working on and needs to get to the central temple (Where Aussie went to resurrect the admin) to unlock it. 

Everyone is transported to the temple and they find the virus is there. A full scale battle erupts and it is discovered that only the original virus can enter the temple, due to a firewall created by the Creator. Aussie takes the program and enters the temple, while Volte takes on the Creator in a climatic battle in the clouds. Then, the Creator reveals that all the virus particles are merely the fallen authors, who have been reprogrammed. Many of the authors are unable to hurt the virus drones and the ones that do become overwhelmed.

Within the temple, Aussie reaches the point where he needs to enter the code and is one symbol away from erasing the virus, when V attacks him. The two fight until Aussie manages to enter the last piece of code. The program starts and the virus, along with Aussie, V and the Creator, all die. The site is then rebuilt and everyone lives happily ever after.

---

Why did Aussie have to die? See, as soon as I wrote those last few pages of the first Enter the Duck, I knew that I was in no way a hacker. Therefore, Aussie would have needed help. I could only think of one answer, and that was that he was the first person Dexter Bipley approached to take over drunkduck.com but then Aussie doublecrossed Bipley, took the power and then did as he pleased. That's what happened, and then Aussie spent most of the series being punished for it.

And that's the moral of this story. What goes around, comes around. I hope you have enjoyed this little tale. And on Friday, I'll give you the credits (No flash this time though. Sorry)

Until next time

<description><![CDATA[An update. Are you all excited? Don't be, because this is the second-last page. I'll put up an epilogue next week when I can think of how to wrap everything up, then some credits and then that'll be it. 150 pages of EtD3. 350 pages of Enter the Duck total.

When I originally wrote out this story, it was supposed to go on for at least three years, ending on New Years Eve 2010. The problem with that is, it's just gotten so boring. I was getting into the meat of the drama and then it just lost its charm. And now I was getting back into the action and comedy type stuff, but I think the slow pages just were not meant to be. So sorry to all of you who wish it could continue, but then it would just be a chore and my heart wouldn't be in it. And yes, I have talked to Rokas about this and he agrees.

All in all, it's been fun. I read over EtD2 sometimes and wish I made it longer, since I was always so eager to do that one, but what's done is done and it's good how it is. As for the revised completely drawn version I said was going to be made? Well, I do still have some scripts written up, but that won't be happening for quite some time.

So goodbye EtD. If you want to see more from me and Rokas, go check out Age of Ends. If you just like sprites, go to Golden Gamers. If you hate sprites, check out Warriors of the Night.

Until next time

<description><![CDATA[So my theory is paying tribute to EtD2 will make me more motivated to update and might result in a few more comments, which also motivates me. 

I've been trying to think of why EtD and GG have been less fun for me lately and I think that after two years and five months (Four for EtD) I'm finally starting to grow out of making sprite comics. I mean, I'm 19 and the sprites were just going to be there until I could draw properly. Now... well, I can't exactly, but I'm getting there. 

So anyway, in about a month or two I might finish the sprite story a little earlier than I was going to and then come back to it later if I get a big enough demand. But, if you guys would like more of the sprite realm, just tell me and I might  be able to push it further.

Until next time

<description><![CDATA[And now we get into the Sprite World plot at long last. 

Sorry this took so long, but motivation for EtD has been a problem lately. Whereas before I couldn't wait to do a page, these days... I don't know, but I've just lost the excitement. So, I'm doing something that may help me get back to that point and it should be something you guys might enjoy if you were fans of EtD2 (Which, in all honesty, is still my favourite of the three). Can't figure it out? Read chapter one to chapter nine of EtD2 and then you might get it.

Until next time
