《What Is It Like To Be Eternal? (Completed)》ForeWord [Edited]

A few things to know about
Eh- so hello guys. This is my first novel. I don’t know how good it is but I hope that it’s to your liking. The start might be a bit crude but I think that I was starting to find my style in the later chapters. The world building is intentionally poorly described in the early chapters, but as you keep reading it, you'll find the story to be more descriptive. About the world about, about the feelings, about reasons, about people, about everything as they are going to have more interactions etc.
The viewpoints aren't going to change unless I state it otherwise in the chapter, but that's going to be marked clearly. I don't want to annoy you with the ever changing point of views, so I decided to write my novel in this way: Alice's, Hiro's, Alice's, Hiro's... I'll change POVs only in each chapter, which makes it easy for you to understand whose pov you are reading from.
At the start, I intend to leave quite a lot of questions to answer in the future so don’t be surprised. It’s to make it more mysterious... If you read you will find out, but just to be clear about some things. Firstly, I’m NEVER going to remove the heroine. I hate how XianXia novels always push aside the good female characters so the reason for POV changing thing isn’t that either. It’s something good. >.<
At first, you might think that the story progresses way too fast but I’m going to be more and more descriptive of the whole universe and they are going to progress slower and stay in each realm longer. The first realm is only 4-5 chapters, while the second one is about thirteen, and it's only going to increase. :D So what I want to tell you, is that this isn't going to be a short story and I'm going to finish it for sure.

I've read many novels here and I've always hated how they are never finished. This one isn't going to be one such novel. You might say that maybe I’ll run out of ideas then leave like the others did but I have so many ideas that it’s not going to be the case. I mean when I started writing this I’ve been writing this for weeks without even stopping or thinking what should I write about. Even if I would run out I’d just think of new ideas.
I still have a shit ton to write about. :D I have many chapters in stock. I'm not going to have a schedule, but I’m writing in every moment I can. If there is anything happening, and I can't post for some reason, then I'm going to post a notice about it or note in the author's note, so you are going to be kept updated.
To be honest I don't care how many of you are going to read this because in my opinion writing is an art in itself which is wonderful for communication. I think that as long as there is even a single person reading it and maybe understanding the essence of what the Author (in this case me) wants to convey through these text blocks, it's all worth it. I hope that I can show some of you a world you might have never seen before. Be it this or fictional.
The last topic is about criticism. I don't care about criticism so you can come at me with REASONS! If you downrate or criticize without pointing out anything or at least writing a solution, then I won't care about you. If you write a constructive criticism, then I'm going to read it, and if it's within my abilities, then I'll try to change it.

I'm reading every comment, it doesn't matter which chapter you do it on because it's shown differently for authors. We can see the newest comments in a straight line, and I'm always checking it out. Now about marks.
To be clear: | “Spoken words.“ | Thought words. | Normal narrative and storytelling. | "Talking by using Mind Powers." |
When you find a mark like this: ~
I use this ~ mark quite often I think... That means when there is a change of tone while speaking. Just as how you change your tone from the start to the end of a word sometimes.
That’s all I’ve wanted to tell you. Now you should proceed and try out if you like my novel. I know how it works. I’ve done it so many times already. I hate the most when I left a story then later by other means it turned out that it was a gem! This may not be like that XD but who knows. Depends on your taste.
P.S.: My favorite color is green so don’t be surprised if you see some things that are green. They say that green is the color of will. Well, I’m quite a willful person. Hehe~
P.S.S.: The cover picture is my possession and is the result of my commission to Shizen on Deviantart.
