Hi! I thought it might be fun to do a Q&A at this point, since we're headed into a new story arc. If you want to ask your questions in the comments of this post have at it. I will answer some tonight and some tomorrow. With it officially "ending" in around twenty-four hours. Obviously I'm still happy to answer questions outside of that window, but I might not be actively setting aside time to do it.
A few notes before we start.
1. I'm going to be trying to aggressively avoid plot spoilers. Even things that just might be spoilers. So please don't be offended if I have to ignore your question for that reason. I still think you're awesome for caring enough about the story to ask.
2. Please be forgiving in the even that I have to confess to the few plot holes and mistakes I've made up until now. I'm sure you scary, eagle-eyed people have found them all. So far there aren't any major ones as far as I know, and the minor ones I'm aware of will all be fixed or sneakily retconned.
3. If it's tough for you to read the convo in this format, I might consolidate the answers into a post or document later? If that sounds like something some of you might want?
Okay! So, I'll start us off by answering a question I made up for myself. Because that's not dorky at all... what kind of arc are we heading into now that Alden has escaped from the moon and Kibby didn't die?
A: Of course Kibby didn't die. You people must think I'm a monster. Just because I murdered Alden's parents and some scientists and Kibby's little sister and Stu-art'h's big sister...oh...
Anyway, Anesidora! For those of you who didn't catch the brief, brief mention of it back in the early chapters, it's located at Point Nemo. I'm so excited to be back on the island. The next few chapters are going to follow Alden during his first couple of months on the island, as he settles in at the intake dorms, learns his way around the city, meets new people, and finds out what the early days as an Avowed are normally like for teens who don't get stuck in a corruption field.
It's less danger but more exploration of a new place, settling some important loose ends, and figuring out who he is now that he's back on Earth. I think those of you who have been eager for a break in the constant tension will love it. I hope those of you who are all about the tension will find plenty to enjoy throughout it as well
Okay! So. Go. Ask. Story stuff. Craft stuff. I look forward to seeing what you're interested in.
