1: This book will PROBABLY NOT have a sequel. BUT it will have a prequel following Christopher in his life before the Resistance.

2: It took me two whole, continuous days to write the plot outline.

3: Xerxes is my favorite character despite being a side character with very few appearances.

4: Thalia originally was named Antoinette, but she died too quickly, but I liked the name Antoinette too much to just throw it away after two chapters, so I changed it.

5: The story was heavily influenced by Seraph of the End, which is very obvious at the beginning two chapters

6: My favorite chapter to write was chapter 46 where we see a soft side of Christopher for the first time with his son.

7: No one's age was ever given. Nova and Leon were 19, Thalia and Ridge were 24, Christopher and Zethus were 25, Pax was 20, and Tony was 22.

8: Almost none of these chapters were written in order. I did 1-8 together and then started skipping around after that to my favorite chapters of the block I was focusing on to my least.

9: I was shocked to find out people actually shipped Nova and Christopher together since I never planned for it.

10: I got all my horse information from my personal horse guru MeMeowBubbles so bless her for answering all my stupid questions.

11: I had a hard time remembering who knew about Nova's past and to the extent as to what they knew. After getting that straightened out, a few of the chapters had to be fixed in order to make sure it followed the story.

12: Out of all the things that could have inspired me to write this book, it was a "How to Write Books Well" directory that I read for shits and giggles.

13: The Humanity at Stake story was not originally going to get a prequel, but due to an idea brought to me, I decided that I was going to do one.

14: Christopher originally didn't have a son.

15: The Humanity universe is separate from post apocalypse Earth. They are their own world. It's a weird mix of old times verses modern technology.

16: The book was always more centered on the action, but I planned for Leon to initiate a relationship with Nova at the end.

17: Christopher spins his bowstaff a lot in order to spin his problems away.

18: In chapter 38, where Leon was poisoned, I brought up the rising sun was a deep red in color. This is based from the old rhyme "Red at night, sailor's delight. Red in the morning, sailors take warning".

19: Nova's innocence was one of the best things to write, and I will probably add in a bit more if I ever come around to editing the draft again.

20: Child McChildson was a strong suggestion as Orin's nickname.
