I wanted to ask you a question, I’m planning on starting another story in the future, while continuing to work on Maut Soon Bachyodo, and wanted your input on which name I should use: Living Chaos, Banished, Or, Calamity Ruin? Or you can come up with another one that you think fits. Just wanted your thoughts.

I’ve thought of one more idea, if it doesn’t work out, I’ll go with expectant. My final idea is “Masked” for multiple reasons. One, he literally wears a mask to conceal his face from people. Two, because he is hiding his true self from the world, essentially putting on a mask over it. And three, because he was exiled, he feels very alone, so he masks that feeling from everyone, including himself.

@CosmicNovaBurst maybe something like Expectant. This is kind of a dual-meaning title that plays on the definitions of the word. Expectant of course means someone is expecting something, usually something big. The other meaning of calling someone "expectant" is usually in a medical setting, meaning they will soon pass away. Society expects bad things from the protagonist, making them expectant and making him expectant in the medical sense when he's exiled. Maybe something similar to this with a double meaning would be good. That way, the title has a bit more of a nod to your story and plot, more able to hook a reader with the possibility of a good story. The issue I see with the other titles besides Banished is they seem to broad, in a dark-but-not-defined way. They call to the emotion of anguish, but don't say anything about how the story inflicts that anguish. :)

So the main story is that there is a person who has an alternate spirit known as Oblivion, who was exiled from society because people believed he brought disaster. In reality though, someone else has been bringing disaster to them.
