So....
I literally just posted two days ago about the chapter renovations and I kept my promise by literally renovating the chapters properly and redesigning some parts by the way it needs to go.
However the more I re-read some portions, it became clear that although I knew the ending that I wanted to have or how awesome I wanted to showcase the characters on specific "That's why she's the main character" moments...
Although clearly knowing all of those, I wasn't satisfied.
And it silently hit me why.
You guys (the very few followers of this story) might not know but I actually make Pinterest boards for almost every character and to some specific groups of people, to remind myself the flow of their personality or reason for being a mage (stuff like that).
But then in almost every board, there wasn't any motive (or not much at least).
Like the villain, I wanted to make her cold and indifferent since its my favorite stereotype but if she seemed indifferent then why does she want to purge the empire with mages (in reference to Prologue 1 story where the Ribbons and 25-year-old Lilith Aurelia aided each other).
What's making her evil?
People doesn't just naturally plot to end the world or a whole civilization just for kicks (not in real life or at least not beings that are humane, and the villain is actually very humane).
In terms of the main character too, what's making her do all these missions without too much complaint? Is it just because she's a child soldier and felt that it was her responsibility to do it?
Was her being chosen as a future ruler of the golden throne something that special to her despite her reluctance to take the offer?
I don't think so. So why?
These questions just kept piling up.
Of course these questions can be answered along the way but I have a specific ending I wanted to reach.
Every chapter (only if needed) needs to have a foreshadowing or a subtle action that would later make sense. Technically I needed to plant bugs here and there to make the ending make sense.
So yeah, that's it technically.
For further details I especially needs to build a foundation to Tabitha Obiel. If truth be told, Tabitha didn't exist as a character right up until I made the Prologue lmao.
The original main character was Lilith Aurelia but I wanted to give her secrets and those secrets will naturally be revealed to the readers if she was the protagonist of the story. So yeah.
Also I would like to add that even if this story is getting dropped, it will not be taken down (unless webnovel does it). I will also naturally join out of WSA 2022 cause (you know) I don't have a story to submit lol.
Either way I would officially like to thank you for staying here until (not the end but) this.
I will definitely post again the redesigned version of the story some time next month probably and if you're still curious about Tabitha and the future of literally her empire's events then please check it out at least once I post it.
Just an early disclaimer though, the characters personality will not be rewritten nor their names will be changed. The events too will not be changed however the perspective leading up to those events will be redesigned.
Characters that were not known much (with the exception of Tabitha's friends and family) has a high chance of being redesigned.
That's all.
Once again, I hereby thank you for reading until here.
Let's meet again with a new notice of the redesigned version of this story.
