Hi, readers! I really don't want this preface to come as too formal or too strict, so I'm just going to let myself loose as naturally as possible!
The Celestial Princess is the product of an idea that came to me many, many years ago—back when I was still struggling with too much ideas and no actual work. The extremes of fairy tale-like fantasy has always had a special place in my heart. I've always daydreamed about floating castles and sitting on clouds and magical, never-before-seen creatures springing to life around you with glowing wings and a hundred cutesy eyes.
Now that the story is complete, I cannot help but marvel at the beauty and brilliancy of writing. Through it, I have been able to reanimate these childish daydreams into a fully-fledged tale with its own range of breathing, thinking characters. I have been able to craft a story of my own with the flavors that have filled my imaginative days back in the far, far past.
In some way, it's a gift to my younger, imaginative self—a reminder from the future that imagination and daydreaming should never stop!
All I'm saying is: writing is magic. It really is, and I don't think I'll ever stop doing it. This story is nothing short of my passion for storytelling and worldbuilding, and I'm now super glad to be able to present it to all of you.
I've got so much more stories to tell, but for now, here is The Celestial Princess. Hope you all like it!
P.S. I've included the estimated time of reading for every chapter. I know you're all mostly on your phones and on the go. I thought it would be nice to let you all know first how long the chapter's going to be before you actually dive into it!
