《Illusion/Core》Announcement 2
Advertisement
Hello everyone! I have two things I want to say.
1. I wanted to let everyone know my new penname, VyStarlit, has launched its first story today. It's a LitRPG called Wayfarer's Guild. I'll add a link in the author's comments for those who are interested. Some people were curious about it so I thought I would make an official announcement.
2. What's going to happen to Illusion/Core?
The short version is that Illusion/Core will be launching under the new pen name of VyStarlit but probably not for a long while
The long version:
Illusion/Core is a passion project of mine. I love the story and fully plan to continue it. Before I do I want to spend time making it a stronger, better story. The story is supposed to follow Raven as she grows into her power and several of the mysteries surround it and the post-apocalyptic world she lives in. When I started writing this story, I was in a tough time in my life and several personal things happened to cause me to take a hiatus. On top of this, when I felt like I would be able to at least start writing again the pandemic happen. I think we can all relate to how the pandemic has affected our lives.
In any case, I decided to focus on writing a different story while working on developing Illusion/Core. I have had a lot of times where I started writing and had to stop because the things happening in my life. So when I decided to launch VyStarlit, I wanted to make sure I had a story I felt I could write reliably with a backlog in case I have tough times. This is why I decided to write Wayfarer's Guild.
Why not Illusion/Core? The story has so many layers to it that it takes a lot more time to write and develop so instead of rushing the story and causing the quality to fall, I rather be patient and develop the story into something I'm proud of because Illusion/Core means a lot to me. In the end, that means that yes I will be continuing Illusion/Core and I will definitely put it on RR but it will be a while before I have enough backlog to release it since I want to make sure it is a quality fic. How long that will take? I'm not sure but when I do release it you will at least know that it won't fall into another hiatus.

I will be keeping this version of Illusion/Core up until the new launch is announced. So those who follow this story, I will make one last announcement on this account when the new version of Illusion/Core comes out but it won't be for a long while. Thank you all for reading Illusion/Core. It has given me so much joy to have you as my readers and I hope when Illusion/Core comes out once again you will find it is an even better story than you imagined.

Arcane Engines: Alchemist’s Scheme
A seemingly chance encounter with an ancient machine and an assassination attempt threaten to disrupt Veil’s education at the premier mage academy of Ithalaan. The bombings and terrorist actions that follow throw the entire region into chaos and draw him inexorably deeper into a mystery involving cults, gods, and ancient mysterious races. These events threaten Veil’s carefully crafted plans, but there are few limits on his ambition. He is willing to do whatever it takes to advance his schemes to become a Magus, including pursuing the illegal discipline of soul magic. While Veil isn’t a powerful mage yet, his spell wrought guns and illicit abilities will help even the playing field. The need to face down his enemies and fulfill his ambitions will send him desperately searching from Forerunner ruins in the Great Northern Forest to ancient abyssal cities within the depths of the planet. _________________________________________________________________ The book is primarily fantasy with a steampunk background. Science fiction elements won't be introduced for quite some time. I currently update my work at a rate of one chapter per week. I'm also in the process of editing chapters 1 - 7, changing the format to make it more readable, and introducing more show and less tell. The reworked chapters will have (edited) after the title. All chapters after 8 have already been written in the new style. I have a Patreon page if you wish to donate. Also, there will be intense situations, some explicit violence, and although it is not an erotic work, one or two sex scenes.

Nighthawk
Ancient tombs hold mysteries and treasures that many cannot even begin to imagine. From magical traps to deadly monsters, mechanisms are established to keep these tombs shut. However, there are brave souls who dare to risk their lives for the allure of riches and glory. Those who rob graves and storm tombs are known as Nighthawks. Lucrio Law, the young heir of Tosa, doesn’t care about graves or tombs. In fact, he doesn’t care about much besides drinking, gambling, and womanizing. But when circumstances leave him ensnared by a centuries-old curse, Luc is forced to walk the path of a Nighthawk, searching for the cure to his curse and discovering that some things are meant to stay buried. Author's Note: - This story will contain litrpg elements like Titles, Skills, and Levels. - MC will not become instantly powerful. I plan for a slower grind with a focus on the characters themselves rather than their abilities. - This is my first attempt at a litrpg story, so please leave any comments/suggestions you have!
