Heya! Author here. There’s so stuff I want to say, discuss and share info about the story going forward.
We’ve finished Arc 4 and the Interlude Chapters! The Trailon Regi’s Volus are wrapped up. Yay! Where do we go from here? Arc 5 of course!
But there’s so stuff that hasn’t been sitting well with . It’s to do with how often I update and my writing in general. It’s often that the creator is the most critical of their work and the sa applies here.
Everything I’ve written so far, has gone to my initial plan since the beginning of the story. The plot for the most part, hasn’t changed too much from my expectation.
I’ve reford and changed Arc 4 as a whole even, but the plot is still according to plan; I just changed the execution. While I do think there are many story monts and great monts in Arc 4, I do feel like it can get a little bloated here and there.
While I will go through the previous Chapters to proofread them and such, there are just other things—like Cinder and Gale. I’ve had them planned since the start—sa goes for most antagonists for upcoming arcs.
However, I didn’t think too well on the execution of all the elite soldiers. Those two felt, at least in my view, a little one-dinsional and just sothing to move the plot forward. I don’t think any of my antagonists have this level of value in any arc in the future.
They do have a story, they do have a personality; but there was little to no way to express that without forcing it into the natural flow of the story or dragging Arc 4 out even longer.
While I believe there are many good monts in the Last Stand, such as the fight with Rain, I also find that it doesn’t have the RIWBAW vibe and charm as a whole; even if it does here and there.
Still, it can be boiled down to, even though this was supposed to be an adventure story, Jotou wanted to help her friend and it was still about the characters—nothing was lost entertainnt-wise. Sotis you just have to move through a plot and go with the characters.
I think the story is still good and made for good tension and interactions between our protagonists. I just feel a little inadequate on certain parts of the story. Still, the plot and consequences from it I’ve already gotten now and we’ll move onward.
Anyhow, let talk about so plans going forward.
As you might be aware, there’s been a LOT of delays in my schedule. This is just due to personal reasons and irl stuff such as stress, random headaches, getting sick etc.
Rest assured, unless I’m quite literally dead, this book will continue to update until it ends; and I do have an ending planned. So as many delays or breaks as I take, this story won’t be abandoned and will be complete.
I love my world, story and characters too much to not do that. And if there are delays or I’m taking a break or if sothing cos up, I will announce it or notify it beforehand or during.
As for the story itself, Arc 5 will be delving into Burnetrout, the City of Fashion and Flare! The plots going on there? Who knows? You may have to solve it yourself~
And as for my plans for the story? The ending is a long while away. I have plans and plots prepared all the way up to before the ending. Arc 5 will also host another set of Interlude Chapters before moving on to Arc 6.
The plan’s all already laid out. Now it’s just up to to write them into existence! Will Arc 5 be longer than Arc 4? I can’t quite say for sure; but for the most part, I don’t think so. Feel free to mock if I’m wrong.
I also have the Okod backstory still in the depths lol? Idk what goes on with Webnovel summoning pens, but I don’t think there’s a bonus Chapter function anymore for ? Regardless, I’d still have to write them, they’re just ready to be written.
I also have an Arabella backstory, the CRASH from Daiyu’s perspective, a Kazuo Namora story, a lead-up story of how Anastasia Princely dies, a ’What If?’ scenario if Jotou never ca to this world or arrived in Kria.
Essentially bonus stories that I want to share at so point, but are not particularly crucial. Let know if you want them just released as a Chapter randomly or sothing like that. Which side story would you be most interested in out of the lot? Lem know!
While you could comnt here on these paragraphs... Guess what? I’ve made a discord for RIWBAW! It’s still brand new. You can also find the link in the Synopsis.
sdiscord.gg/NPxPJZKamz
Join the RIWBAW discord and interact to make up a community! Read the rules and verify, then have fun. I’ll announce Chapter updates, any delays and leaves I take etc. there.
There’s also character profiles I intend to expand, a proper list of spells, a q&a section for any questions and you can even give feedback! I may also create polls and such to determine certain aspects of the story going forward. So, join now! (I’ll be looking for mods if the server gets a lot of peeps)
I also made a Buy--a-coffee and Ko-fi page, cause I didn’t know which one to choose. If you wish to support outside of just coins for the Chapters, then these should help!
sbuyacoffee/eletro101
sko-fi/eletro101
You can also find the links in the discord. I may also move to posting map updates and such to these pages and discord channels, so that they’re not lost on a comnt in so random paragraph.
It’ll be more accessible for people to view and easier for to edit the paragraph and not worry about the comnt being deleted automatically.
Is there anything more to say? Oh yeah, at the ti of writing, I’ll be taking a little break before Arc 5 and I’ll return on the 1st of Dec with the first Chapter.
In any case, I know I keep saying it, but thank you all for reading^^ There’s no way this story would continue, as much as I love it, if there weren’t people like you reading and supporting.
I hope for better things for this story if Webnovel could recognize it. An audio version, a comic adaption or even an animation would be great, no? Hah~ I can sure dream.
For now, they haven’t even added the character pics I gave to the ’Fandom’ section on the app a while ago. Delays? Did I send the wrong format? Who knows? I’ve got no one informing about it.
But hey, popularity garners attention; the more it has, the more likely those dreams beco reality. So every person reading this counts and I appreciate you all.
Make sure to stay safe, take care of yourself and keep going forward; it’s okay to breakdown, just make sure to get back up. Bye for now!
