SCEPTRE: I

Author's Note

ALBERTNK

OMG

I get a part in my POV.

Oh well. Here goes nothing.

I have always loved reading; it is the best escape from reality, entering a fictional world of endless possibilities. My family once forgot me on the train during the holidays; I was immersed in Suzanne Collins' Catching Fire.

I was sitting in my room in boarding school (Yes, I went to boarding school. People do that, I think.), I had just finished every book I managed to find that interested my; from Pendragon to John Grisham. I felt like I read people's word so much that people even of they were only fifty, should read mine.

But what to write.

The idea came to me and I ran it through my bunk mate and a few friends; apparently it wasn't a bad idea and I started writing. The first draft, which took me about two months to finished, was swept up and burned (My fault.)

At that point I gave up.

It wouldn't be until two years later, when two friends of mine kept urging me to check out their work on wattpad that I would get the wonderful Id'ea (get it Idea...LOL) to open a wattpad account and write SCEPTRE:I

It has been the most wonderful journey. I have had so much fun writing something that wasn't school work. In the event that I fix teeth eventually, I will spend most of my free time writing ( Don't forget partying, I'm not that serious people.)

Locations; most of the places in this story exist, obviously. I was born in Lagos, Nigeria. The IIA is my vision of the perfect educational system, where children learn to hone the talents and gain skills that will help the society. (Don't forget the free money, and cool gadgets.)

Also there was the international community learning as one, no borders of race or ethnicity and all those other major issues that shouldn't even be issues.

The first time I left my country, I went to Paris (Disneyland. Turn up). I also got to see Oostende, Belgium; a beautiful island city with a perfect beach. I saw Turin, pride of Italy (Yes I went to the Sacra di San Michael. Though the cult of St. Michael don't know about the time travellers.)

Pompeii was hard; how do you revisit a buried city. But there are so many accounts of the city that I just had to do what I do best; read..and watch movies. ( I almost cried. Almost)

All in all the journey was phenomenal.

Characters; creating an entire world with diverse people was tasking. Some authors have hundreds of books with different people. How do you keep up, and make sure everything is in check. I tried my best, I think.

My personal favourite has to be....

I love all my children ( you won't get me to side with Mem... NO)

I have a long list of people to thank for encouraging me to write story; Elvis, Michael, Tomiwa, my boarding school squad. Temi, Ife, Anjola, Valerie; A-levels, and my first wattpad audience. Hilary and Arvxn, present wattpad squad. I love you all

Well this has been fun, but I'm hungry soo.

Cheers.

P.S

I've decided to name the sequel finally.

Drum roll.
