《KING OF BEASTS (ON HIATUS)》Update - Writing. Life. Future.
Advertisement
Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well.
I decided it's been a while since I really updated everyone on the state of King of Beasts, my writing and such.
King of Beasts has surpassed 300,000 words, which is mind blowing to me. Every so often I'll check and think about what I have actually achieved.
I went back to read my first few chapters and I didn't realise they were that bad. I expected them to not be great, but... it was a shock to be sure.
I've been writing in between a number of other projects as a way to put ideas to paper, so you may see even more from me soon. I did have another project that I was hinting at in the last update, but I've started a few more and I'm not entirely certain which project I want to post up here yet so I'll think about that more often.
I think it's a good idea to mention that I am going through some health issues and have been for some time now. There may come days where I miss a chapter or two so i hope you'll bear with that.
In terms of what the future holds for King of Beasts, I'm not sure. I'll be editing some of the earlier chapters since they were that bad and I can see why so many people have dropped off. I won't be changing any of the huge plot points, but some of the easy stuff that I was going to go back and edit I'll go and edit, and I'll work on my prose too.
I hope that everyone is having a good time with my work, I'm really enjoying my time writing it. I've ntoiced that I've focused a lot on slice of life, and I think it's gotten to be a little too much so just you wait and see what the next few chapters hold.

Thank you for everyone that has been reading, I will continue to do my best with my writing. If there are any questions that you have about the story, or anything you want to criticise, go ahead and let me know in the comments.
All the best,

The Undead Revolution
This was my first attempt at writing a story, in hiatus indefinitely. This story follows Silvy, half-elf, a rare race despised by both humans and elves. Having never met her father, the first years of her life were spent together with her mother, who had to leave her native village because of the blasphemy she had committed by giving birth to Silvy. At the age of eight, Silvy became an orphan and was left to fend for herself. Her mother had died of illness, Silvy’s life turning upside down: the child went from living in a modest but cozy home with poor but daily meals to live outside the walls in the slums, where crime was commonplace and food was scarce. Luck had yet to abandon her completely though, because a group of orphans like Silvy decided to help, integrating her into their group and teaching the tricks of the trade; that is, stealing and swindling. But fate had not yet finished playing with her. Kidnapped and frightened, her life will turn upside down again when she awakens as undead, but still able to think clearly.

The Guardian (The Legend of Little Red Riding Hood & Her Wolf)
Ever wonder what happened to Little Red Riding Hood after the big bad wolf ate her granny? Well, let's just say that was only the beginning. Somehow, those who know the Event got to calling me Little Red Riding Hood, a moniker I hate to this day. I was there. The blood; the smell—it still haunts my nightmares. A Timber Wolf killed my grandma. And then... a little cub saved me from the same fate. She became my best friend from that night on. That was years ago. This is now. Within a world of magic, mystery, and rich history: a man searches for purpose and freedom, a kingdom teeters on the brink of a hidden war destined to shake the foundations of the four worlds, and a common girl and her wolf remain at the heart of it all. Aria is doing her best to survive. Thrown into life with little more than a set of twin swords, a family who depends on her, and the memories of her father's teachings, she must scrape and scramble for enough to feed herself and her family. With a sister no healer can cure, a brother whose middle name is Trouble, and a Timber Wolf as a best friend—her life is far from tame. Will the life she yearns for ever be hers? Can she protect her family through what is coming? This is a book that will take you to the deepest, darkest parts of a girl's life and the highest mountains upon which she will, someday, stand. Join Aria as she fights for her kingdom, her family, and The High King. Plus, there's a pesky prince. And what's with all the ruckus about Prince Protector, anyhow? Edit 5/6/22: This was originally going to be one large volume... then the volume became too large. Going to split into two, with no cliffhanger at the end of Volume One, but with a few strings left untied. Then we shall begin the venture into Volume Two. Thanks for reading and hope you enjoy!

She Who Reigns the Stars [Vol. 1]
*Remastered version of She Who Reigns the Stars* Tell me, what will become of us? Presenting your Goddess… Asteria, Supreme Deity of Stalera, the nation of the Universe. She who rules the stars with steel eyes and an iron will, the glorious, the beautiful, the adored Goddess, has now fallen under the hands of her nemesis… The Archfiend, Emperor of Talonis, the nation of Vice and its Shadows, has now assumed reign over Stalera after the death of the Goddess. With the power of Vice, its Shadows, and the Universe, it is assumed that he would be satisfied now that Stalera was under his mercy, and the other two nations of Yelerna and Antalis would follow suit. But much to our surprise, he isn’t because he still lacks the… Ruby, The Goddess’ last attempt to save her empire and the entirety of the Universe. Before her death, the Goddess sealed a portion of her blood, which contained the remaining powers of the Universe the Archfiend hadn’t obtained, away from his grasp. She entrusted it to one of her Zodiac Warriors, a member of her elite service known as the Zodiac Warrior Circle, and instructed him to hide the precious jewel on Earth. The restoration of Stalera and the defeat of the Archfiend would lie in the hands of whoever inherited the ruby jewel. Those who inherited the ruby were known as the Goddess’ Successor, and the one next in line to inherit it is… Auriella Corentin. Life was never the same for Auriella the night her Grandmama gave her the ruby jewel and died, thrusting the poor girl into a world of magic. Now in possession of the Goddess’ blood, it wouldn’t be long until the Archfiend found her, killed her, and obtained her ruby inheritance. But Auriella never wanted this responsibility, not when she had her own past and inner demons to battle against. Nevertheless, she finds herself seeking an alliance with the Zodiac Warriors and a strange barista as she learns to wield the powers the Goddess bestowed to her. But as frequent demon attacks, a secret admirer (or stalker), strange notes, and a handsome, amber-eyed boy pile onto her plate, it is no longer clear whether the universe needed Auriella to be their savior or to be the Goddess’ (inferior) replacement. A Goddess in need of redemption. Four Nations at the brink of destruction. Our question still remains unanswered… What will become of us? [Updates Monday, Wednesday, Friday @8pm PST]
