Hey everyone, I’m still alive. College has been really busy for me lately, but I’m currently on break now. I’m happy to say though that the world map and the book cover are officially done! Also the chapters are all but finalized and I realized I made a mistake with the numbering so I’m fixing it now. I was working on chapter 41 first scene but it just didn’t feel right and it’s been such a long time since I worked on the current story arc, so I lowkey need to plot things out again. The Lenora arc will be finished before the end of the year and I will try my best to get my story up to a 1k views!!!

Hey everyone, I head back to school in a week and I'm currently focusing on that new objective. However, I think if I press myself this week. I can get the prob 2-3 chapters done to finish out the Lenora section of the story as to not leave it at an odd place for some of y'all. Also it'll prob be best to get that part of the story done while I am still actively in the writing mindset full of ideas.

Hey guys, I was forced to split chapter 39 into two. So y'all get two chapters instead of one, lol. But anyways, enjoy the reading and please upvote! I really don't know when the next chapter is coming out though but hopefully it's before school starts for me again.

Hey everyone, I just finished writing chapter 39 and will begin typing today and hopefully will get it out before monday/tuesday. Also I rewritten the opening for Penance, Potions, and Politics because I didn't like how much it gave away so pls reread it if you passed that part of the story.

Hey y’all, I know I promised to try to get the next chapter out this week but I’ve written so much and found myself not being able to cut any of the content because of how crucial it is. So I might just split it up into two chapters or make it one big long chapter. So far looks like the former is gonna happen. Good news is I have like 3 more scenes to write which means I get to typing and editing soon.

Hey everyone, we’re nearly at 500 views and I’d never thought I’d get this far. I’ve been pretty busy this week with irl things so the next chapter won’t be out until maybe next week. On the other note, I tried expanding LoA to other platforms such as Deviantart and Inkitt but realized that it was a pain to re-edit something I didn’t like across multiple platforms/I encountered more bots on those platforms then I did here which really ruined the mood and motivation I needed to expand there.
          
          So for the time being I’ll be publishing Legacy of the Forsaken on Wattpad and only on Wattpad. I also made one final change to the introduction to shorten it a bit, only including the map, the book title, and personal shoutout to Moon Phoenix for making the book cover.
          
          I’m trying to keep this LotF as close as possible to how you read a normal fantasy book you would find the book store but I’m thinking about maybe adding some my own art in the book or something akin to that. But idk, for the time being I will focus solely to chapter making and getting done with the Lenora chapters. Despite spending 2 years on this project, I’m not even close to done so I gotta get writing and fast!

Hey everyone, I have two major news updates to give y'all. First news update is that Chapter 38 of Legends of Atria: Legacy of the Forsaken after much time and delay will be released shortly! 
          
          Second, I have finished the last major round of editing for all previous chapters after cutting out some unneeded details and small edits to align with my future and concurrent plans for my universe. Do not expect any editing to occur to the previous chapters, they are officially canonized and finished in their current forms. 
          
          Three, I will not be using AI art to depict characters or my book, I put some thought into it and I felt that if I couldn't make original art to coincide with my writing, then using AI art would lessen it. So I deleted all the AI art for the chapters and had an independent artist make my dream book cover for Legacy of the Forsaken. I am incredibly pleased with it, and it was what I originally wanted for the series. I now firmly believe that it's up to the reader's imagination besides the cover and the world map, to imagine what my characters and world looks and feels like. It's why I decided not to include a Spotify playlist and instead stick to in-universe songs and created unique languages to enhance Atria.
          
          And finally, I plan on do more promotion for Legacy of the Forsaken because besides writing for myself and to relieve stress, I do enjoy it when people comment on my chapters and working for an audience makes me work harder and better. I've enjoyed seeing comments, the increasing votes and views over the past couple weeks so thank you. And I hopefully this community and my fantasy universe's fanbase will continue to grow. I plan on promoting LoA on reddit, discord, tumblr, and other sites in the next coming weeks.
          
          I prob won't release another chapter until next week, but I want to get done with Lenora before school starts again for me in August, and I get busy again. Forgive me for any typos and weird spelling mistakes, it's late at night.

Ignore the last announcement which I have since deleted, I decided against it because it wasn’t that professional also I kept changing songs around and it got to the point where it was taking too much time away from writing. Apologies for the notification. Feel free tho to listen to your own music while reading LoA. I recommend KOTOR I music, LOTR, Berserk 1997 soundtrack, etc.

Hey everyone, I just fininished up a lot of editing for the little things. I think I'm going to hold back on editing, because I literally went through thousands of words capitalizing kings and ranks which waste too much time. I hope all the capitalization is grammatically correct, but for rn, for the ease of my conscious, I think I'm fine with the editing and I will not be going back to published chapters to change them anymore. Chapter 38 should be out next week, I hope you are enjoying the book.
