Hey all!
          	
          	Been a while, and I'm sorry for those of you who've been waiting. I'm still here. Barely, but still going.
          	
          	I stopped for a while only because I was swamped with college. And some of you might have noticed that a bunch of my stuff has been taken off by myself. I need to heavily revise my stuff. Like no joke. Some of this stuff was seriously really cringy and in bad taste (offensively so too). No excuses. 
          	
          	So, I've grown a bit and I'm here to make it up to all of you for years of crap! Yay! I still might not have time to post as much as I used to, but be on the look out!
          	
          	Does anyone still use this...?

Hi, I'm a new follower of yours and I just wanted to take the time to tell you that you are an AMAZING author!!!!!!!!I've read the Heroes of the New Age series and was stunned by it, and was disappointed to see that it was deleted, but I'm happy to see that you're rewriting it......I can't wait for bew chapters!!!!!!!

xSimplyElementaryx

@xdark_nightsx Thanks so much! I'm glad to hear from my followers. I'll be updating as much as I can, as fast as I can. I was hoping to get the reboot up right away, but there was just so much to change.
            
            Anyways, thanks so much for writing! Hope I can continue to amaze you!

Alrighty, my loyal followers. I haven't been keeping you guys up with what's been going on in my little ol' brain, so for all of you who care, here's the scoop. 
          
          I've decided to start working on another story [Road to Elysium]. Yes, that's my own fault. I haven't forgotten about the other ones. I'll be working on those [Lament of the Shinigami & Already Seen] along side each other with a little more manpower going into Lament and Elysium. Why? I've completely ran out of ideas for the sequel story. It's not that I'm giving up on it. It's just going on a little hiatus. For now. I'll keep updating when I can, but my brain has just been wrecked for a while now, and I don't want to hand you guys crap to read, so...hiatus until I mend up my brain.
          
          Sorry to all you guys who are desperately waiting. I'll do my best to keep up with other stories, but past the crazy, I've still just got a normal brain.

Hey there! I know you have probably been getting spammed by my votes, and for that I apologize. BUT, I just wanted to say that I'm enjoying Heroes of the New Age a whole lot! I got antsy to read, so I thought that I would just go ahead and read the finished one that is being revised, though believe me when I say that I will most certainly will read the revised version as well! 
          
          Anywho, to get to my point, your story is awesome and I look forward to reading the others you have written.
          
          Also, you have a great taste in anime. (And music if the stuff you used for the dance is any indication.)

@xSimplyElementaryx Well, I have read up on them a lot already, but I'm planning to do more research on them to get a better grasp on who they are. I'm very familiar with all of the Final Fantasy characters because I've done the same thing. After I read up on them, I even go and watch cut scenes so I can get a better grasp on their voice and their body language and stuff. It's kinda fun.
            
            Well, I'm planning on buying the game soon anyhow, because I've been wanting to play it for a few years. To be completely honest, I can probably wait until after I play them so I get my own personal opinions and all of that good jazz. 
            
            Thanks for replying! I appreciate it!

@SephyraCrescent Yes, I've played Kingdom Hearts. I've played or watched my friends play the games in Final Fantasy as well. As far as I'm concerned though, you don't have to. I say that grudgingly because then people will just jump into this without doing a lick research on characters. But I've seen bad fan fiction from people who do play the games and people who don't. 
            
            I prefer to play the games because it lets you, as the writer, interpret how a character is. To some, Kairi might seem incredibly annoying, but others may see her as brave, average girl (who's a princess...) who is just fighting for her friends. It all depends on you. You'll also be more likely to get their character right as well, since you're spending so much time in game with them.
            
            However, if you don't, I do advise you to do some research on the character. Even if it's just looking at the character Wikis. You still might be a bit off, but you'll be closer in the ballpark than those who just go off of looks or other fan fiction. 
            
            All in all, it's up to you. I'd suggest playing the games, but some of us really don't have the means to buy them or play them, so writing one without having played the game is fine too, just do some reading on who the characters are, their motivations, their speech, their habits.

@xSimplyElementaryx I understand that completely! I think the fact that you have as much up as you do at the moment is a plus. 
            
            I know that it gets a bit overwhelming. I am never again going to write more than one fanfiction at a time. One is tiring enough as it is (though I have one-shots up as well, so those take time I guess...although they don't take more than an hour or two to write) 
            
            I am excited to read the rest of your work! Just out of curiosity, have you played Kingdom Hearts? I know that the characters are in your story and all, and your personalities are spot on, it's just that I wondered if you really had to play it to write it. 
            
            I want to write a KH/FF story of my own at some point (Sephyra Crescent is actually supposed to be the name of my first ever OC, who was a Final Fantasy one...that I never got to use.) but I haven't played the game. The funny thing is, is I actually know quite a bit about the game and the characters without having ever touched the actual disc. I AM planning on getting it and I HAVE played some Final Fantasy *Cough* and watched cutscenes *Cough* I just was curious as to rather playing it to write was actually a necessity.
