Okay! The previous chapter marked the end of Arc one from Nights of Sambria And the Wish of Light.
I wanted to take a pause between the arcs and talk about certain points.
When I started brainstorming up the plot for this story, I actually wrote a scene where a fantastical race discovered someone in a cave. But, then slowly I realized that I want my characters to be modern, so that it would not happen where the main character is born in a fantasy world and was brought up with big differences between their and our world. So, I took a step back and started writing Calin the way he is now and his friends with him. Secondly, I didn't want to write two or three chapters and bang characters are in a fantasy world, it is weird when I see writers do that, so, I didn't want to go that same route just to get to the good stuff.
That in itself is the reasoning behind how Arc one progressed.
