Cigno Fanciulla: Dance for the Balladeer
R18+ [ Genshin Impact | Scaramouche Fanfic ]
He was temptation, my twisting turn. He was my best, and he was my worst. There have been times when I could feel myself slipping away from his fingertips - letti...
Cigno Fanciulla is the exact Italian Translation of Swan Maiden - the depiction of Fenella's character.
EijiAhane is Scaramouche's birth name in this fanfic as there is no official release of his name just yet. Tied to speculations about being related to Raiden, his name Eiji stands for Order of Eternity; and his surname Ahane means Second Root.
Prior to writing this, I have conducted some research on the background of Japanese History and Tradition [it's a topic I love learning about]; some summaries of Swan Maidens and The Children of Lyr [where Fenella's name is from: Fionnoula i think?], Commedia dell'arte [where the inspiration of Harbingers are from], ArsGoetia [the archons and sigils]; and other Genshin Lore related stuff.
Aside from these, I am currently studying Psychology and I aim to apply some of my knowledge in order to make the characters seem more human - more relatable and realistic in terms of character.
Again, I try to write carefully keeping the context in mind to avoid rewriting/unpublishing from reader strikes. If there are corrections under portrayal of characters, I have already tried my best to give them "my version" without altering too much what their characters truly are.
I am concerned over my readers, and most especially my efforts for this story which is why I had three whole parts of explanations as part of safety precautions.
If you have any concerns to "incorrect" portrayals, do let me know. You may also educate me if it is a subject of appropriation. However, if you are offended with the content, then that is notmy concern anymore as I have warned you again and again of what this book contains.
Be sensible enough not to read things that harm you, only to blame others for your shortcoming. This book isn't for you - it's for people who are capable to read its content.
Let people enjoy what they want; give them their freedom of speech and thought. But do not ever impose your rights, and abuse your power to bring down the joy of others.
