《(Discontinued) Aevitas - Not an NPC [unfinished]》Discussions: Q&A
Advertisement
I debated whether or not to make this thread, but I already wrote I would in Chapter 7 Author comments so I am.
---
Throughout the Chapters I have omitted various bits of information in order to keep the story moving forward. Mostly, that has been filler information but it has [in my opinion] left a few bits of interesting things out of the story.
On top of that, the comments of readers have led to some developments within the story - particular with my presentation.
-Biggest example being Lucy's Point of View; that was never included in the original version.

Bit of Background information on the story - authors perspective
Spoiler :
I originally wrote the game of Aevitas with no main characters or story. I wrote the world, the magic, the fights, the monsters, the cities, maps, dungeons, bosses, gods, Skea-Tech, etc.
There was no 'Tobi' or Lucy, Lorry, Deedee, Galven or any other character shown in the story.
What came next for me was a main Character from the Beta stages. (Not Lorry who works for Skea-Tech)
He chose to be Racian and I enjoyed his story a lot.
[he will probably enter the story later so not going to give information on him]
Next came a bully victim who chose Dwarf after the games Release to the world.
[will probably also enter the story at some point]
I continued writing various story-lines for characters.
After several months, the game was shut down due to an unprecedented event: A player became stuck in the game.
I then started writing Tobi's story.
After reading 'Master of All, Jack of None' by Mythran - I decided to share Tobi's story on this site.
I originally only wrote Tobi's story from his perspective. Nothing outside of what he did or the outside world. The first 120k words or so were full of filler and events and Tobi's actions. That pretty much led to the end of Chapter 7.

If you have read that far, you will now know how much editing went into the story so far o.0

Here is where you come in you smexy devils.
After Chapter 1, I was undecided on why he actually got stuck. I had written several version of the why but to me it didn't matter to much. What mattered was that he was stuck. So I asked for reader input and was extremely happy with the comments people gave.
So; I would like for you to keep giving suggestions and making requests. Maybe even discuss things among yourselves.
I am calling that: "Reader participation"
Also - if anybody has questions for me, I will see about answering depending on if it is a spoiler or not and whether or not it's a good choice to answer.
---Example Questions---
"What were Lorry's Stats in Chapter 7???"
- [I would answer that]
"What do you think of Lunitans Review of Aevitas?"
- Entitled to opinion, I have no comment.
"What is Vallens Class?"
- Hmm... I will think about answering that.
"Do you know anything about chess?"
- Enough to include it as part of the story but not as much as Tobi.
- Enough to play ...
"What is the title of chapter 8 going to be?"
- I would answer that.
- You should always specify which chapter you are referring to and I will answer if I think I know the publish date.
"How many gods are there?"
- for which race? ;)
Point is, I will answer your questions if you have some provided they are within reason.
Anything that Tobi knows that you do not, I will answer. Originally, the reader would know absolutely everything Tobi knew, but the actual sharing of the story went a different way. Otherwise you would have 40k word chapters to read that was 30k words of filler.

Anyway, if there is anything you absolutely want me to read or answer - post here.
In some cases, I may not be willing to share in the thread but I might be willing to share in a private message.

P.S. EDIT:
Afterthought: Want me to put your Questions into this main thread with Answers in spoiler boxes? Or just answer in replied the way I have so far?
Second: Question for the readers.
Some people don't like that I write in Queen's English [proper English from England]
Want me to switch to Americanized English? It isn't an issue for me.
Examples of Differences between Queen's and Americanized:
Spoiler :
Colour - Color
Favour - Favor
Flavour - Flavor
Jumper - Sweater
Trainers - Sneakers
Pavement - Sidewalk
Armour - Armor

Divine Progress
Progress is a dubious god. After failing him, three people are banished from modern times and sent to another world. Seemingly out of place, Christoph is snatched from his own time and plunged into a world of violence and magic with no deity to lend him support. Instead, Progress has seen fit to curse him with an eternal hunger for magical energy. Branded as a demon, he must fight for survival while battling the servants of the god who sent him there, struggling against the 'gift' that Progress bestowed upon him and the past he sought to abandon. Can he make his way across the lands and gather enough strength to survive without the blessings of the Divine? Or will the gods bend him to their will, breaking him if he seeks to resist? This is not a short story, and the plot will take many twists and turns before Christoph's journey comes to a close. After all, it is not the destination, but the Progress that matters in the end. Like many other stories on RoyalRoad, this is my first piece. Feedback is more than welcome, so please leave a reply if you have a comment or question.

I was a being that transcended even the Gods.I stood at the top, the apex, the pinnacle of power.And yet here I am. Shackled, powerless; a mere husk of my former self.The memento of my loved one binds me to this cursed place.Why, you ask?Why? Because I am. I am the end, the harbinger of demise. It was my quest. To bring end, to be end.The Gods respected that wish and in turn got immortal life. But, oh the irony, the immortal life I gave them made them break their promise.Corrupted by their attachement to their mortal selves they betrayed me.They took her life, one of their own kind and my love, and bound me with her flesh and blood.She, the Goddess of beginning. I would end the cycle and she would repeat it. We were so different and yet we loved each other.My rage burned without stop in sight, however time takes it all. Hate, love, sadness, joy, they are all taken away.But the memory, the memory of hate, to kill the Gods, this stays. Yes, I will end them.They played me a fool and now it will be their time to pay the price. But the price is costly.I can't wait! Their fall is near! My dawn shall be heralded by their deaths. Corpses shall tower to the skies and blood shall form rivers! As I am death incarnate! I am their bane, their RUIN! You fools, you don't play... with DEATH!My new destiny awaits.....
