Hello folks. Sorry this is not a chapter, don't feel cheated because of it ^^'

First things first, I want to thanks you all to read this experimental piece of mine. I started writting this because I'm not a native english speaker and that the best way to improve is to write. So far it got more focus than what I was expecting, even more since my experience in english and as a writter isn't much. Every last one comment is taken by heart and is very much appreciated, and the number of follows is something that make me smile daily.

Second think, I want to apologize at the slow release rate. Even if you don't complain, I know that if I the role were reversed (And if I liked the story) I would be annoyed at one release every so often.

Third thing and the reason I make this post. I'm utterly unhappy with the Ashes storyline so far, both in what I've wrote and what I'll be able to write on the bases given here. I'm reflecting about it since a month ago, and the whole thing is riddled with plothole, uniteresting narrative choice, and overall not good.

I really like blacksmith and all creation/production things. I love physics, engineering and their production and industrial application. Even more, I like the creation of items that have personality, that are created from extraordinay materials, with extraordinary method, by extraordinay people, things that are more than the sum of their parts. The story behind each of them, the symbols, the will of the creator, those are things that inspire me and that was what was planned, expected from the Ashes storyline, are extremely important, but it's not the whole picture. I need and actual story to place it in context, and the actual storyline is both to much and to little at the same time to do so. It's uninteresting because I give too much to quickly while their is fundamental things missing, and it don't inspire me.

All of this to say that I'll start writting Ashes part again, implementing different worldbuilding choice for the world around here, creating different, new characters that I like more, and not giving too much in one go. I didn't say it before, but you could have guessed already : I didn't plan anything. I write what I like, things that gave me the breath, the excitment, and I wanted to put Ashes in the story but, in my haste, I found myself with something I didn't like. This won't do. Chapters will be edited backward with Ashes part remplaced with a new thing that I like more and, hopefully, is better than what I've wrote so far.

I'm sorry about this since I'll surely slow even more my release rate, but I'm a young author, both in age an in experience, so I'm bound to make mistake, however I refuse to write myself in a corner, and to deliver something to you that I wouldn't read, because my standart of quality is asking myself if I would read what I'm writting. If the answer is no, what I've wrote is shit, back to the drawing board.

Thanks for reading this, I'll still try to make release as often as my motivation allow me too.

Sheers ! ^p^

Update : I've trashed the whole Ashes storyline and replaced it with a new one, already set up. What do you think about the new storyline for Evilyn ? I take a bit more of time, I've wrote more about her, and fleshed a character a bit more than "She is calm".
