The Dragon Prince storyline altered

Author's note

After how season 5 went, I decided to add something special to this season's fanfiction. I'm sure everyone could use something to cheer them up after how season 5 went. Well, I'm sure some people could, anyway. Are there any other professional writers reading this?

I initially loved this show, and it pains me so much to see what it's become. It's agonizing. As a professional writer, I hate to see its potential being torn apart and wasted like this, seeing as how it had so much potential to be something great. I didn't think it was possible for a show with such potential to turn out so bad.

The creators have screwed the writing up in ways I didn't even think were possible. It's like they're going out of their way to make it worse. Season 4 was never THIS bad.

A lot of the aspects of the first three seasons that were jarring and horribly written can be overlooked if you give it enough effort. Even a lot of what made season 4 bad can be overlooked if you really try hard enough. It was a setup season, and a lot of stories are usually off to a rocky start. I know from experience that starting a story is hard, and it's usually not as great in comparison with the rest of the story. For these reasons, I was willing to overlook a lot of the stuff about season 4, so long as the next seasons were better.

But season 5 wasn't better. It could have been so much better but it was 100 times worse. It just shoves the plot convenience, plot armor, plot devices, and atrocious writing in your face at 100 times a larger magnitude than the first four seasons. It also made me realize that the first three seasons weren't as great as I initially thought, and stopped me from continuing to overlook what happened in season 4.

There's no way it can redeem itself with only two seasons left. It's a lost cause, and it kind of already was, I just hadn't realized it yet.

Point is, I have something special in store for the readers who have read this far into my fanfiction (and suffered through season 5's hot garbage).

I remember a user left a comment on a chapter in this fanfiction a while back saying that it would be cool to see my original characters drawn.

Well, I have news for you. I made digital drawings of Linopha and Lepidolite! I haven't drawn Kokiri yet but I probably will around the time of season 6.
