A Soul's Past and Future

AN: See You Later

Hey guys,

It's been a wild ride. I started this series back in 2019 because I had too many ideas for good story plots and not finding books that was similar to what I had in mind. Literally a "if no one will do it, might as well write it myself" mindset. I said "fuck it" and just started writing. 

I didn't think this would grow as big as it did, nor did I expect to write three whole books. If we're to be real, this third book should have ended several chapters back. Actually, this series should have ended on book 2. 

During my two year unannounced unofficial hiatus, there were so many instances where I wanted to rewrite this entire book but every time I looked back to see what to remove and what to rewrite, it was just hard because every chapter (even the filler ones) had some sort of importance to drive the plot further. I lost motivation and interest in this book because I didn't like it. I felt like my writing slowly got worse and I had no idea where and how to continue. I lost track of the plot and tried to fix plot holes that were accidentally created as I had only really planned for two books lol. 

Maybe one day, I will rewrite this whole series but I make no promises and this is just a BIG maybe. 

A lot has changed since I started this in 2019. It's weird to think that I started this back in 9th grade and now I'm in university. Life kept moving and sometimes you out grow something you used to love. I finished this because I made a promise to you guys that I would not abandon this book. I do hope that it was a good ending (even if it is a little half-assed, because not gonna lie, I completely lost the file that had how I wanted to end this book) and if it is a disappointing ending, at the very least it will give you some closure that this book is finished. 

The ending is open ended but I thought that's because healing isn't linear and it's hard to say when it's truly over. I didn't want to drag this book out longer than necessary anymore and thought this ending would be for the best (for both me and you guys). Peter's journey is far from over but he's in a place where he's accepting his place with the others and realizing he's no longer alone. 

My OCs are both something I loved and hated in this. Younger me had added them on impulse to add more to the plot. I did not think it through and I did not plan. Which ultimately made everything awkward to write. They're precious to me because they were my first OCs but I wish I could've done better with them. It was only supposed to be Abby, the soul guardian, but younger me was like "if the soul stone has one then the other stones need one too". 

There's so many things I can keep going about that I wish I did differently or just planned better but overall, I cherished the moments I made during all this. I connected with so many of you and made friends because of this. I will never regret starting this series. 

I don't know if I'll be active on wattpad anymore after publishing this. I might login once in a while but those moments will probably far and few in between. I do hope that you guys enjoyed this ride as much as I did. For those of you who have stuck around since the very beginning or is still reading this after my two year disappearance, thank you. You're the best <3. 

Anyways, thank you again to all of you

Byeee! <33
