Just want to everyone know, first and foremost, that the first edited book of the trilogy is out for free on Amazon. However, it doesn't seem to want to let me run it for a week, only five days tops. So if you want to grab it, now's the chance to do so. (I've placed it at the bottom due to some complications of it turning the entire post into one giant link to the page)
Anyways, I want to thank you all for taking the time to read through my three books, despite them being so bloody dark and full of the ideas which are being frowned upon in this day and age. Especially the abuse and tortures towards those within my own creation. Not only this, but in the six months since I started, I've written exactly 411,077 words. That's 122,195 words for Azzarath, 137,497 words for Terra, and 151,385 words for Abyss. Quite the accomplishment, don't you think?
In any case, if you've been reading along the Author's Note (AN), then you'd know of my plans for the next book. Well, I'm actually pushing that one off to the side to keep the original fourth book. For those confused, I had been wanting to put out a historical fiction called "The Bully Prince" before the original fourth book. However, that one is going to be released before the "Children of Terra" arc in order to show why he is as he is, and what I'll be throwing his way during such a time.
Which simply means that it'll be the "cutesy-adorable" book which will be coming out next, and that'll have its own segment within RRL, and not placed within this one. Yes. I'll let everyone know when that comes out, so don't worry too much. Just be sure to stay attached to this one, 'cause it'll be mentioned under a "new chapter".
Also, this next one will not, and I repeat WILL NOT, be a Dark Fantasy story. For it will be focusing on Nox number two, and his little friends as they go on "adventures" which are simply devised from their own imaginations. Such as climbing a mountain, which will become a pile of pillows; running from a "monster", but it's just a Nanny who wants to give them a bath; or finding a way to grab some treats that are far too high up for either of them to reach. Something along those lines will be within this next one.
Not only this, but I have to warn you that this Nox is a reincarnated being from Earth. However, he's actually from 1950's America, so there's zero chance he'll follow the same template as everyone else. Such as, "Oh this is a fantasy world and I can use magick! Let's increase our mana pool!" or, "I've read about this/saw it on TV that I can cultivate in order to become stronger, so let's try doing that!"
No. Nox will not be following this template, maybe one of his friends, but not him. Which simply means yes, he'll show off what he can do, but that's it. This'll be shown in the beginning, but that's about it, as they are simply children being children and nothing more.
As to when this'll be out? I'll be needing at least a week in order to get everything in order. This is all due to the fact that I'll be rewiring my brain to avoid moving this book into a more Dark Fantasy style of writing.
Ah, one other bit. Here's the titles/series I've thought up thus far, in case anyone wants to know what to look out for in the future:
Origin Point:
Azzarath
Terra
Abyss
Prelude to a series (thus far):
Child of Terra (for The Children of Terra arc)
The Bully Prince (origin for Nox number two; before The Children of Terra arc)
The Family:
Stolen story; please report.
Of Life and Light
Of Death and Darkness
The Sins of The Abyss:
Lust
Avarice
Pride
Wrath
Gluttony
Envy
Sloth
The Apprentice Chronicles (which will appear within the Sins arc):
San'yuu (after Pride)
Siuun (after Gluttony/during Wrath)
These two will be under a diary/RE: format with only Siuun's being told by a caretaker/babysitter for her.
One shot books:
Disc (a collection of stories involving twisted wishes from Avarice to Sloth)
The Black Parade (a collection of stories about what occurred during the occupation of the worlds within the Azzarathean Pantheon)
Journey Through The Universe (a collection of stories involving the Ageless as he makes his way to a meeting point where the other two of his kind will meet with him)
The Children of Terra:
School Life
Terran Pantheon
(may change)
A War of Worlds:
Conquest of Earth
Defense of Earth
War For Earth
Please note, everything may or may not change in the future, but this is what I've thought up thus far. Quite ambitious, if I may say so.
So, questions? Comments? Concerns? I'm all ears for anything and everything you want to ask/rant at me about what went on through this trilogy, as well as for my future plans.
