Hello, I am SmilingBlueWolf!

First of all, I'd like to start with an apology. Please forgive me, as I have not been able to update the series as I wanted. I had surgery and other real-life problems and commitments, but I will not bore you all with the details.

However, I have not given up on this series, and I will not. I'm very attached to it. I have other ideas and projects but I will not get to them until I finish Tales, and that will take a lot of time and effort. I'm not sure how long I envision Tales to be, but with at least ~2500 words per chapter it will go far beyond Japanese style Light Novels and into Chinese Web Novels territory, at least size wise.

I understand my English is far from amazing but that will not be an obstacle. The novel can be rewritten, edited, improved and learned upon, and this is one of the main reasons I'm writing here on RR. I'm not afraid of constructive criticism and I even welcome some guidance on my grammar weak points. Such being the case, I plan on resume the novel in the next days and keep the schedule of at least a chapter a week at random intervals. Without some sort of monetary support, this is the best I can do.

Regarding the novel itself, I have been busy at work finishing my proper scene list. It will work as guidance when reviewing and allowing for easier edits, the spotting of plot holes, unconscious foreshadowing, and inconsistencies that will help me improve long-term, including story and grammar wise.

To anyone that wishes to begin reading my novel, I suggest that you read at least until chapter 7 before making your own conclusions. At least the first four chapters should give you a general feel and allow you to understand if my style is good enough for you.

As for the future, my readers can expect plenty of action, strategy, character development, war, politics and base building. I dare to say that if my skills allow me to implement my vision right people will be hard-pressed to find a similar novel out there. By that I don't mean a masterpiece, but I hope it at least will be a very enjoyable read for everyone that like the genre!

To my readers, using their precious time to support this novel, I can only thank you all for everything. I will endure and write the best I can, for as I long as I can.
