...what a difference a chapter makes...:laugh:...Perfect Day and Chorus of Annihilation are complete opposite in vibe....I loved Perfect Day, obviously it’s so light and lovely and the friendships and relationships that you've created, Scarlet, are beautiful...:love:...I do feel slightly uneasy though ..(...because of Roisin and Dex...)...that something may happen to either Ashe or Ariel....Chorus of Annihilation, though...is just so ominous and menacing...

Perfect Day was made to contrast with Chorus of Annihilation a lot, the silence before the storm xD

.....ughhhh, Roisin...:sad:...what a place to end...will she survive the ice crystal and her wounds...and will she still remain Roisin or will she be changed in some way/her character...


...another excellent book, I loved it...:love:...I love how you build the darkness and the more chilling parts ...but also how touching all of your friendships are, that really shines through so much ...lovely writing as always, Scarlett...:love:..

I felt so bad writing that part with Roisin, but I wanted to show how strong Treleva was at full power

Thank you! I love writing the characters :D

Did you like the Coda? :)

Prologue up for book six too!

..yeah that last chapter ended it perfectly because it’s not just the cliffhanger ending with Roisin and her injuries, it’s also how it connects to the past with Syl..?....a promise made, ‘don’t go dying on me...’...and now she’s there, possibly dying...?...there is obviously a huge significance that we’ll find out...

Indeed, I wanted to close the book on that sort of note.

Speaking of notes, did you notice the naming scheme? Prelude, verses, choruses and coda :laugh:

...I hadn’t noticed but that’s so clever...:laugh:...so Coda is the ending, the fading out...you have me thinking now, is it the ending for Roisin and again the connection of..’don’t die on me..’...maybe this is her fading death scene...

Will be doing a new full chapter tonight, so you wont have to wait long to find out :D

You might have noticed the chorus chapters were a little shorter too :p

...yeah I did notice that with the chorus chapters, I just connected them to being chorus at the time...:laugh:..I think I was so engrossed in the actual story as you built it in the end, I overlooked how cleverly you had done that...doh, I’m so unappreciative but it really is clever...strangely as well, one of the last English things I was doing at school was short/long sentences and chapters etc to build up suspense/emotion etc...I’m so dumb...:laugh:..

I wanted to have shorter flashback chapters to fill in where Lumina was in 'Memories of Ice' and then, to explain more about the fall of Utopia before the ending, so they fit in well :D

That said, I didn't wanna make them stick out too much :)

...Roisin’s injuries..:sad:...can she trust Amanda to heal her again... ding able to talk to Ruby and Dex, though../..they’re her guardian angels...

Indeed, she hates Amanda for what she did, but she's also her only hope.

Dex and Ruby will always have her back :D

...I still don’t trust Amanda but I know there is no choice because Roisin’s recovery...she’ll be a little like The Bionic Woman...:laugh:...but a more superior version because she’ll have the power of both crystals as well...

Indeed! Will the crystal stablise her or will she find it even harder to deal with the increased power? :o

...yeah I was thinking that as well...will her ravaged/repaired body be able to cope with the power of the crystals because they would drain her even at her most healthy...it feels quite doubtful atm...:sad:..

...oh but yeah, maybe they’ll be the things to stabilise her..I didn’t think of that...but hmmmmm, then will she be the same in other ways though, what would be the impact on her character/her inner self...hmmmmm...

Indeed, she's got a long road to recovery, but she is strong enough to fight through :)
