《[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!

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!

Reaching for One's Desire: Kane's Ascension
After living most of his life as a worthless orphan, Michael Kane only desired for the chance to make something of himself in this world of monsters and magic. In a world where only wealth and power mattered, he was literally at the bottom of the food chain. He fucking hated it. Always having felt that he was destined for something greater than what was essentially a beggar’s life, Michael held hope that things would change with the arrival of the Day of Gaia’s Gift, which happened exactly halfway through the year. It was the day in which everyone that was fifteen years old was given access to the System and was given a ‘Class’ depending on your aptitude, two if you were exceptional and lucky. It was his hope that he was given at least one class worthy of becoming an Adventurer, which would help him start his path to a life of wealth, fame, luxury and pleasure. Being an orphan that never knew his parents and having no one that he cared for nor that cared for him, it was not surprising that these were Michael’s goals. Little does he know, that he is destined for even greater things.
