《Silver Amelia》Arc 1-3 Afterword
Advertisement
I hope you don't mind me making an afterword so I can speak freely about the story.
Anyway, first, I was recently bored and took the personality test for Amelia, Kanna, and Celestia. I know it's one of the tools in order to differentiate one character from another in stories, but it's the first time I used it for my characters. Anyway, these are the results with their personality in mind. But mind you, the result does not entirely portray who the character is.
Results based on: www.16personalities.com
Amelia's result was: The Protagonist (ENFJ, -A/-T)
This was an unexpected result, but taking her personality, views, and ideals to mind, it made sense. Still, I have never thought of making Amelia as an actual protagonist type. I just had a mindset of 'This is her past. This the result of it. After the things she's been through, this is her now'.
Kanna's result was: The Entertainer (ESFP, -A/-T)
This one was an obvious result. Taking Kanna's personality, and how she often acts, it's an undeniable summary of her personality.
Celestia's Result was: The Executive (ESTJ, -A/-T)
This kinda fits into Celestia's personality of maintaining the status quo in Origin. And taking the rule she placed to protect her kin, and how she responded, Celestia does feel like an executive type.
All that aside, I'll talk about the story itself. So far, I'm glad I did not drop the story despite having the mindset of it for God knows how many times. Yes, I thought of dropping the story numerous times. I had so much to brood about the story especially when it came out until the latter part. Like how I failed to make it into WebFictionGuide, failed to garner a single response in Ficfun, and a lot more that it's too depressing to count.

Still, I kept on writing. I just kept on reminding myself that an unfinished story is not something that my readers would want. Besides, if I stopped now, I thought that all of Amelia's progress would be in vain. Which is actually the main reason why I kept writing.
I love Amelia. I love how she kept on facing her problems despite wanting to turn tail. I love how she developed and how she shows her concern for the people important to her in her own way. She might not be good with words when she's frank, but deep inside, she's still a little girl. Lastly, I love her silver hair (I have a thing for it lol)
My love for Amelia aside, the story is progressing in a crawl, which is on purpose. Sometimes, I wanted to increase the pace, but I kept on reminding myself that building a world is something I cannot rush. I have to place hints. Make reasonable, logical, and plausible scenarios. All to make a world that could stand on its own.
Still, I have to thank the pacing. And with how the story is progressing, I'm sure some of you had an unconscious hint regarding the gradual change of point of view. It was intended to build Amelia and the people around her before diving into the more chaotic part of the story. Like, I have yet to give details about the Divine Assembly. Who are the leaders of the church and their plans? The result of the fairies being missing in action in the war. Ragnell the dwarf. The three other Heroes. The Angels. Amelia's Brother Mark and his Mother Liz.
I could state more, but it might go to the realm of spoilers so I should stop there. Anyway, threads are still progressing and will connect soon. And with the foundations I have built into the story, and ceilings without them, I have so much to write about to fully realize the story. And I hope you're still here to read it.
Anyway, thank you for your support!
Fourth Arc incoming!

Follow your dreams only to get stuck halfway is not something that anyone wants. David Hunter was someone like that, his dream was to play in the first league of the European league. Either with giants of Barcelona or Real Madrid. Some dreams only stay like that, only to dream no matter how hard you try. Or do they? ************************* I write this for my own amusement, if you like to read things to pass time, you are welcome to have a look. Schedule? IDK man, 1 chapter every day if I have enough time. 2 chapters per week!PS: I posted this story on webnovel.com too, so I can reach more people!

Vemödalen: From The Other Side
War is coming - And when it comes - And where it comes - And whence it comes - The living shall envy the dead One to carry their sword in the name of their goddess and lady, to protect their land and people against the threat of the wicked. They know their path to be the righteous one. One to roam the land, hunting for all apparitions, and be scorned by man and beast alike. They know their path to be an arduous one. One to wander the realm in search of power, to protect themselves and what they believe in. They know their path to be the only one. Writers note: The first chapter will set the standard in terms of mood for the remainder of the story. It also comes to no surprise to me that half the people who read the first part stop reading any further. It has quite a bit of the good ‘ol ‘ultra-violence’ mixed with a great deal of realism. As much as I could fit into it from my own knowledge and experience in the elite forces. The first few chapters will be slow, after, but starting from ‘Restless Destroyer’ the remainder of the world will start to open up, and when we hit ‘Adronitis’ the prologue is largely finished. The novel is well thought out and filled with hidden lore, culture, history. So even if my word choice appears random – it’s not. There is a reason why these chapters take as long as they do. Vermodalen is fantasy adventure, with magic and heroics in an as realistic setting as I could fit. Things are rarely what they seem, and the ugly nature of people bleed through the letters at the turn of every page. I hope you can give this story a fair chance, even if it isn’t immediately to your taste. Lastly, english isn't my first language. It isn't my second one either. So, if you find errors in grammer and spelling, wordplay and sentance building, do let me know, and you will be rewarded by a surge of dopamine that will be released inside your brain for helping someone whom you haven't even seen or heard.

A Merchants Tale
Legends rise. Country’s fall. Empires wage war. But what supports these great powers, allowing them to function as a single organism. Is it the common man, Farmers and Millers forming the backbone of the land? The Soldiers and Guards keeping public order? The Wives and Widows supporting from the side-lines? The Nobles from their seats of power? Or the elusive Sorcerers who wield power untold? And what maggots crawl in this great creature, all trying to get a piece of its slowly decaying flesh. The gangs of the Underworld hidden in the shadows? The Bandits and Deserters hiding at the edges, ready to pounce on any weakness? Witches and Warlocks working their dark art? Or other Nations clawing at their neighbour’s, salivating over the riches they stand to gain from another’s demise. There is one group that belongs to neither group. They thrive on others misfortune and bring with them salvation and destruction in equal measure. They can raise a kingdom up or tear it down screaming and kicking. These are the merchants, the lifeblood of kingdoms, because what is the one thing above all else men crave. Is it Love? Power? Destruction? All these things can be acquired with one simple thing. Wealth. Wealth is the true power behind the world. Wealth can buy army’s, strangle kingdoms, and turn even the most devout man from his faith. Merchants come in many forms, shapes and sized, some gaudy, bleeding the people for all their worth, some tricky, preferring to make contracts and debts to trap men. And some desperate, doing all they can to sell even the most worthless of junk. This is a story of one merchant who goes against all a merchant stands for. He works not for profit but for some unseen goal, a prophesy aeons old. He comes and goes like a ghost, bringing with him hope and victory. All pray for his arrival to spare them from despair. But what about when he doesn’t show? What about the people he doesn’t save? For this man is no angel, no saint sent to save the masses. His goal was never to deliver hope. It merely isn’t time for their destruction yet. For nothing is eternal. And all things must end. But what comes after? Quick disclaimer in response to the review I got, this is my first story and somewhat of an experiment for me, hopefully my writing will get better the more I practice. Thanks for any helpful advice :)
