NovelEnglish****Hey everyone, Author-San, ScotchTy here; I just wanted to take a minute to chat with you all; from the beginning, the 185 and 186 were a single chapter; the first look at the school and the landing came out to around 3800 words. So I split it into two chapters because it was too long to meet my personal chapter standards. THUS this one is a bit shorter than usual. So far, we are currently 42 chapters into Volume Three, and I know some of you are probably beating your heads against the wall screaming, “OI AUTHOR-SAN WHERE DAH FIGHTS AT!” and to those who are, I wanna say, “WORLD BUILDING FOO!”
From the start of Volume One, I have specifically given Cynrik and Brance an extremely limited worldview. Be it between Cinyah and Rikard being overly protective, making them stay basically in their little town of Lawton for their whole lives, or the regulations imposed by not only Tobs but also the Government ban on high-level information. In my initial planning (I swear there is a massive plot outline for this series), I always intended on Volume 3 being the info dump.
Now that the brothers have arrived at VSFA, they will have extensive amounts of data to comb through since the Academies are, at heart…a place for learning.
We are currently in VOL 3, and by this point, we had already jumped headfirst into the main arc in VOL 1 and 2. For reference, just look at AoT and how Isayama Sensei took seasons 1 and 2 and turned them into roller coasters before expanding the world in 3. I am taking a similar approach, but FRET NOT MY FRIENDS; this Volume is only a little over halfway done, which means we haven’t even hit the main arc of Vol 3 yet. So you can expect hella fight scenes, Cynrik and Selene getting into shenanigans and leaving Brance to clean up the mess, Benny being the little weirdo he is, and of course, Gabby being Gabby.
Next up, IT IS TIME! TOBS CORNER VOL 3. So, get those questions ready because I will pick the best ones from the community for this Volume’s installment of Tobs’ Corner; remember, you can tweet or slap them on Instagram with
