《[Discontinued] Armus : First Draft》Title Change and Reparation Program
Advertisement
Hello my dear readers! :ALLO:
This... is not a new chapter. :boworpushups:
This is a notice to inform you regarding the title change and my chapter reparation program or RP for short that has been ongoing for a while.
Q: Why did you change the title? I missed the damn update because I didn't recognise it, you moron!
A: Hey, I did put the old title in bracket.... T_T.....Armus was a temporary title from the time I had no idea what to do with the story (until chapter 4). I restrained myself from changing it until I've reached a point where my writing could be called 'decent'
Q: So what is this RP? Is it more important than the new chapter? HUUUHHHHH?
A: RP is my ongoing effort to better my previously horrendous chapters. As of 9th May 2015, I have fixed Chapters 1-6 bringing their grades from a D+ to perhaps a B- in terms of quality. Heh, A+ is out of reach for a first time amateur like me.
Q: Wait, you rewrote the chapters? Do I have to go back and read them now? You damn piece of #[email protected]$!
A: Woah, woah calm down! I did not rewrite them from scratch or add any new important information. Come on, that would be a dick move. What I DID do, are replacing awkward sentences, fleshing out scenes (oh god I finally managed to write out decent battle scenes) and changing the format to suit the latest chapters as of now (Chapter 25)
Q: WHERE IS MY NEW CHAPTER?!! GROARRRGHHHH!!!
A: O-o-on the way, please d-don't eat me! Okay, seriously it's in progress. I like to write a large part of the chapter at once so I don't forget the flow of events and my current schedule is not so lenient to allow me those precious long periods to finish the chapter. So, I settled for the less time consuming RP that is suitable with my current time slots.

Q: So... what is An Eternity's Coda? (AEC) Sounds weird, are you sure it's grammatical?
A: Well, that's the real title of this web novel! It has everything to do with this story. Huh, what's a Coda? I guess the most similar words to it are 'finale' or 'conclusion' or let's just say end. You can refer to the story as AEC or just regular old Armus. About whether it's grammatical or not.... I think so, well... at least it sounds profound/complex :D
Q: Why did you choose to launch the RP? Like seriously, why?
A: I realised that the several latest chapters I wrote had a.... different feel to it. I wouldn't call them bad or anything but... it just felt off, like things are taking a lighter mood, too light. I suppose it was an aftereffect from reading about 30+ volumes of a japanese LN (To Aru Majutsu No Index and its sequel New Testament). So in order to regain the earlier mood of my story, I revisit my old chapters and also read some western fantasy fictions (currently reading Mistborn Chronicles, I'm at book 2 :D). I believe that the vast imagination of Eastern Fantasy (Japanese in this case) could be combined well with the detailed writing of Western Fantasy.
Q: I realised the RP: Batch One you stamped in red on the fixed chapters, what do they mean? DOES IT MEAN YOU'RE GONNA WASTE MORE TIME ON FIXING OLD CHAPTERS INSTEAD OF CHURNING NEW ONES??
A: RP: Batch One includes chapters 1-9. Batch Two will include several selected chapters (that I found to be lacking). Yeah, yeah, I know it's a bit cruel to make old readers wait, but come on.... I alternate between repairing and writing chapters.
Q: When are you going to pick up the pace again? The story is hella slow at the moment... what's up with several chapters talking about him picking classes?

A: I've thought so too, and don't worry because I plan to end the arc in another 10 chapters max (this is an estimated amount). Once the second arc ends, heh... comes the tricky parts for me to write.
Q: Well that's great and all, so when are you going to write me that new chapter?!
A: R-r-right now, sir!
Q: Why didn't you answer my question?
A: Forgive me milord, this humble servant of yours could not foresee your question. Please present it in the comments below and I shall etch its glorious wordings unto this unworthy post of mine.
--------------------------
Readers' question(s):
Q: When are you gonna add more chicks around Chase? Come on, that guy is like... an embarrassment to all males!
A: Oh um, I thought about this actually but then I couldn't find what to do with them once I add them in... so they'll turn out into some useless forgotten characters :wozy:. I plan on having a few female characters around him in the third arc. Oh yeah, this story is not a harem so I haven't really focused much on chicks falling in love with him and stuff. He'll get better with chicks soon, seeing female bodies in yoga class plenty of times would get him bored with it.
Have a nice day!

Living In The System - A LitRPG with more story, less text boxes
In the ancient echoes upon it’s great boughs, Yggdrasil holds all the knowledge in existence. Indeed, all of creation swings from its immense branches and leaves. The howls that creep through its cavernous spaces were not caused by the wind. No wind could be powerful enough to shake The Tree, yet it rocked. A great battle raged in its dew drops and amongst its roots. A War for control. For knowledge is power, and power is everything. A furtive glance over her shoulder told the hurried goddess that she was not being followed. That was good. What she had just done would be a great risk. Placing a new thread on a world so soon to be destroyed was costly. She would be greatly diminished, but her work was not done yet. In the myriad of infinite worlds, there lies Genia. A starter world, of very little importance. It is where she will find her champion. Killian never got the chance to see the world. Yet he is given opportunity. Opportunity not just to see the world, but to change it... to change all of creation. There are many stories to tell upon the Tree of Yggdrasil, where all of creation hangs from its branches. The power of destiny fuels all, but destiny is fickle. He can only pray that things will go well. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
