My story is located here.

I have had this story floating around in my head for quite awhile and I finally am having one of my writing upswings again so I am able to get more than normal down for a while. I may or may not have the next part up by the end of this weekend, so keep watch!

Any positive critique is welcome!

Edit: Added prologues 2 and 3. That covers the prologues now so on to the real stuff.

Added chapter one to my story. The Dragon of Time begins to set his mysterious plans into motion, Kor begins the long walk to the ruins of Tibattleonia, and Zarmak is our eyes into the new villiage and has a run in with an agent of The Dragon of Time.

I did not expect it to take this long, a lot was distracting me for a good portion of the week.

Any critique would be appreciated.

Just posted Chapter 2. If I can keep this pace up, one every week, I feel I am setting a fairly good pace. I was partially experimenting with format during this chapter, mostly with the Dragon of Time's dialog when the narration is not focusing from his point of view. Chapter 3 will have the characters finally showing off their newly acquired time magics and we get to see a bit from The Dragon of Time's perspective on what he has done in Chapter 2.

As always any critique is welcome!

Prepare for incoming read-through and suggestions! *Offers Kors a chocolate chip muffin in her stead, promising to return soon after dinner* ^ u^

Chapter 3: How Quickly Everything Can Change is up! I changed my plans a little but otherwise I got quite a bit in this chapter, once I get going I just pump out more and more in shorter amounts of time. I have a feeling a writing crash is getting close but I have enough of an idea of where I want to go with Chapter 4 that I may be able to put it off for another week or two.

Once again any critique is welcome.

Got the next chapter done but won't be able to post it for a while(until about 6 P.M. tomorrow if I can't wake up early.)

Edit: And Chapter 4: A Moment to remember is up. This was one of the first times I have done something like this(The wedding and large info dump) and I am kinda playing with how I write the fight scenes, so any critique for that would be much appreciated.

Here is Chapter 5! Kor starts his first history gathering in a dangerous area, and gets his new weapon. Until it goes far from planned.

Now I based this new character on a real life friend, although it is more general description for now. I may not make another chapter for a while as I do the next part of An Unexpected Letter fort he Truphma Camps collaboration.

And here is Chapter 6. Things only get more mysterious from here. A God is pulling the strings, but who? And just who is Kor's attacker?

I admit this one is kinda short but it just felt like it needed to end there. Lots of Dialog, little action but we get a return of the Dragon of Time and the Oikea Hetki. More will be revealed when the next one comes, probably in another week or two(Yay finals and the ACT too ).


Well this chapter has annoyed me for quite awhile now, finally got a chance to actually get to this done. I will be redoing this chapter and hopefully it will come out better...

I am thinking of rebooting this. With the details of the Reset being clear now and my recent improvements in skill this just does not feel right to leave some rather sloppy stuff like this on here. I'll leave it up till I actually get some of it done(probably after I finish my story for the upcoming Paxia war in AQ).

I thought i'd just point out that there are two different types of fanfictions: the type that fits the character into the existing universe, changing basically nothing except living there; the type that explores the "What ifs" and "Could haves" of the universe. As result, i don't see why you would have to reboot your story unless you're wanting to stick to the first type. Just a thought. :D

The main reason I am is because of how every time I try working on Chapter 6 I have an incredibly difficult time with doing anything with it. I originally planned for the character introduced to be based off of a close friend but with some of the stuff he has gone through recently it kinda feels wrong, and considering I have yet to even talk to him since I made that plan has thrown a bit of a wrench in that plan too. It's been a month since I could even get a word down on the document I have it saved to, and at this rate it will be like that for longer yet( I normally could work on two or more stories at once with little issue). Another is exactly as I said in my last post, I feel I could write it better with several changes that would go along better with the stuff I know now and with some of the changes made to the original plans I had for this one. I want to try harder to make this more than just a little hobby project that never gets beyond the planning stages, that actually goes somewhere and does not end in either a badly done cliffhanger or after a string of overall bad writing. That is why I want to do more than just rewrite my story, the larger premise is okay as it is but the premise of my early chapters needs to change if I can be happy with it. I am sorry if it seems rude, but I felt like I needed to explain why I felt like rebooting my story. It just is not good enough to for me to continue on with it when I feel it is inadequate.

Its not rude, i was just wanting ensure that you weren't planning to rewrite your fanfic simply because of AE's story-line releases because that would make writing a story kinda moot of your situation/universe keeps changing beyond your control. if you want to reboot it because its not working for you, thats perfectly understandable. I just had gotten the impression when you posted the "reboot notice" that it was because of new AE storyline info from releases. :)

It was really the final nail in the coffin for this story, I had been considering it for a week or two before as I went to try again on 6 and just failed to go anywhere with it. If I had ever managed to talk with my friend before he bothered to drop off the face of the earth than perhaps I could have gone somewhere with it, but all things considered if he has come back I feel he should have time to get himself back in order before I bother him with such things he is now utterly uninterested in(he was the guy who introduced me AQ and DF back when those were the only two, so I felt that I should at least find some way to honor that by having him be one of my key characters).

I am starting to get back into the groove of writing some now. I have just been to occupied with the new Etrian odyssey game and a few other more pressing things that in the end mean me doing little on my free time to continue my story but I am starting to go into one my writing phrase again so I might have some in another week or so.

I definitely like this story, but who is the opponent of the game? Or is that yet to be revealed?

Got the rewrite for the prologue done, gonna try and wait for the 4th(an important date for IRL me and two important numbers for the story itself. I likely will be quite busy then and may wait for Friday instead.
