《Beyond the Veil》End of Volume 1
Advertisement
Whee! I managed to finish a volume. Go me!
I'm in the middle of editing the second volume. The process took a lot longer than I hoped, mostly for external reasons. It has about the same number of chapters as the first volume, but each chapter is averaging about twice the length.
I'm unfortunately not the quickest writer, at least compared to many others on this site. If I start publishing the second volume straight away at the same pace, it'll be finished long before I'm even half-way done with the third and final volume.
Here's the plan for the moment:
1. There'll be a break, as the next month is crazy busy for me. Not sure exactly how long the break will be, but I want volume 2 more or less finalized before I start publishing. I may throw in an interlude or two before volume 2, but no promises.
2. When I start the second volume, I'll publish one chapter a week instead of twice a week. Sorry to disappoint.
3. Hopefully by the time the second volume is published, I'm close to done with the third volume. We'll see.
I want to manage some expectations before we go on:
- The next volume is not a Harry Potter magic school-type arc. In fact, there'll be a significant time skip before the start of the second volume.
- The story may go in... unexpected places. I just hope no one will blame me for not taking the story in the direction they were expecting.
I'm not sure that warning is helpful or harmful. Time (and comments) will tell.
Finally, for my curiosity, I'm wondering which of the characters you like, based on what you've read so far. "Like" as in "find interesting to read about", not "want to befriend". For example, Darth Vader has a lot of fans, but I'm not sure all of them want to have him as a roommate. You may select multiple or even all of the options.
If you have thoughts, good or bad, on specific characters, feel free to share them in the comments.

Candor: The Forgotten House
*** Please read note below *** As a 16-year-old mage from a powerful family, Jayce Candor had known from a young age what his future would hold. As the fourth son in his family the possibility of him becoming the heir to the household was very small. But, with his talent as a mage, his potential accomplishments in the military could lead to titles of nobility and political power. However, on what would otherwise be an unremarkable night, everything he had ever known, the only people he ever cared for, and all of the plans for his future were destroyed. House Candor, one of the six great houses that helped build the Eldoran Empire had been erased from history. By imperial decree, all those bearing the name Candor were hunted down and executed as traitors of the Empire. With no home, no family, and only death waiting for him, Jayce decided to escape north to the uncharted Northern Territories to begin a new life. Forced into situations he was never prepared for and trying to cope with his past, Jayce tries to find safety in a place spoken about only in legends. There for the first time, he will make true friends and find people he will come to see as family. He will encounter strong enemies, build powerful alliances, and become a person his ancestors would be proud of. But surrounded by creatures he thought only existed in tales and pressed by the Empire’s constant expansion, Jayce’s safety may be only an illusion. To survive a world fraught with danger Jayce will need to grow stronger with each new experience and rebuild his once forgotten house. ********************************************************************** Note: The story starts slow. Although there is more action as the story progresses, there is a fair amount of introspection and character introduction in the first 30 chapters. Jayce is the main character, however, other characters play a large role and the story is seen through multiple POV's. This is a draft, it is not a finished work. This is not a story that focuses on an OP MC who beats up on weaklings. At times there can be a fair amount of internal monologue. Some of that may be edited out when I rewrite the story. I decided to keep it in the draft because I think it is better to have too much material rather than too little when I edit. Constructive criticism is appreciated as it helps in the editing and rewriting process. Check out my other story Shattered Mind here
