To:mindokusai
Thank you so much for getting to end of this book mindokusai.
Reading your comments, getting your input. It gave me motivation I needed to, at the very least, conclude the story.
For your theories, I'll drop some hints ๐. So yes. To some extent, our boy Shun "knows" a lot more than a thing or two about those monsters.
Talmarius's resolve to avenge someone is deeply rooted in the events from that stormy night where tragedy befell the Kurosu Estate.
In Kuroโs words, Irinaโs tough. I'm sure she'll bounce back in no time (hopefully.)
Yes, I was aiming for a much longer story (might have exceeded word count or wouldn't be able to wrap it up neatly in time... So, I split it into chunks. And I already have another story I want to revise and continue too... Will cross that bridge when I get there.)
For sure, ending on a big explosion and the annihilation of that world ending disaster would be flashy, but nothing more. Way too many loose ends.
Personally, I don't handle cliffhangers well and I tend to freak out when I encounter one. Yet somehow I ended on one. Very strange. (This is also getting that Vol 2. Just gotta wait for the next holiday, and free time.)
I do remember that comment you made on the earliest chapters, and I'm happy knowing that Kuroโs tale was to your liking.
Once again, thanks mindokusai. I wish you all the best, and I do hope someday you get to see the rest of Kuroโs journey.
(Ah, I went ahead and yapped too ๐. Not that I mind yaps. In fact, I love and encourage them!)
