Planning Ahead / Future for the Story / Authors Message

This story contains a plethora of content already.

And I'm here to say that this is just the beginning.

As of now, I have planned out the entire story of Truth and Family: A God's Journey (Adtraic Verity) from the beginning all the way toward the conclusion

From main conflicts involving family operations, to unimaginable scenarios such as fights against factions, blood, war, and alterations of the world; all of it has been planned by me accordingly.

I don't exactly know when this story will end. But just be aware that it is the journey that matters most, not the destination.

After all, it has been only two years since I have begun writing this novel.

Now to express and share my thoughts and problems with outside factors interfering with my novel.

Firstly, beyond Arc 1 Chapter 18 is a mess that CAN be fixed. You may have noticed that chapters of Arc 1 contain grammatical errors, incoherent dialogue, and an absolutely disorganized plot, containing elements that may or may not be suitable to the rest of the story.

I plan to fix this once all of Arc 2 has been fully written and published. I came to the realization that I did not desire to simultaneously work on multiple arcs. It became a hassle for my memorization and mental health. However, despite this, I still have some sort of plan for the FINAL rewrite of Arc 1.

Second. You may have noticed similarities to certain titles and projects (copyright) unrelated to this novel. I plan to change these concepts entirely and even replace them with original thoughts of mine so that way it would make sense with the plot.

Third, From this point onward, art for characters beyond Asahi, Aletha, Aiyana, A://:/, A://://, Akwan, Sadiki, and Telos will serve as "concept" art until I create finalized versions of their characters. Meaning, one by one, OFFICIAL and ORIGINAL art will replace the concepts of many characters until all of them have been made official… similar to Sadiki.

Fourth, Publishing times may be inconsistent. This is due to the fault of outside factors limiting my time to write. I won't go into further detail about it, since it is personal. But just know that if I haven't published any chapters for awhile, it may be related to the cause. That brings me into my fifth message.

Fifth. Please, do not assume that I will drop this novel. I have invested so much time and hours trying to perfect and create beautiful ideas. As said in the synopsis, this is a PASSION project. Meaning, that I have no care for the income. But… to satisfy my editors… I will have to turn to premium someday. So here's the plan I laid out for the future.

Content from…

Arc 1

Arc 2

Arc 3

Arc 4

Arc 5

Arc 6

…will BE FREE to READ! Meaning, that you will NOT have to pay to read any chapters within these arcs. The remaining Arcs…

Arc 7

Arc 8

… will be premium. As for the reasoning that it will be The End of the novel. And you having gone this far, traveling through the journey Asahi and Aletha will take, it only makes sense that the Ending will be premium locked. But I promise you, there will be no difference in quality on both free and premium arcs. I will treat them the same as every other arc.

With that being said, I appreciate all of you who have collected my novel and understand the problems I have been facing. Each one of you has motivated me to keep on going and follow this pursuit on something my old self never would have dreamed of. However, there is a lot more ahead of our main characters. It will be only in the matter of time until something plot-twisting will be revealed…

The sheer scale of this project is huge for one person. If you haven't already, read "Wanderer's Dream: Storyline Preview" to see my planned route for this novel. Other than that, enjoy my story!
