Author's Note:
I now realized why I'm having such a hard time writing this fic…
I've messed up BIG TIME in reference to this game itself!
The concept of this story was to portray Isa and Lea's life before the after story of 'Birth By Sleep' up to their appearances on the later titles which are 'Chain of Memories', 'Kingdom Hearts 2' and 'Dream Drop Distance' respectively all the way until the very end of the Xehanort Saga.
Their story is solely told from the perspective of another Character I originally created for this very fic: Rae.
I considered myself too young at the time when I started this story...
The first mistake that ticked me off was Isa's personality. I love writing about him, but I honestly had suspicions along the way as I wrote. And now I know why. Grr! I made him too tsundere-like to which he is nowhere near that way! I also need to tone down Lea's childlike attitude. (But pay no heed. That's the kind of character he really is during this age. I just need a way to create a development on him. NOT just Isa. Since this is about them both). But keep in mind that Isa's mostly on the favored level here due to the romance I've included. I have been doing that since Isa/Saix don't receive much love from the game.
Next. Xehanort wasn't supposed to be here just yet. Although I remember clearly why he is; the first time I wrote this back in 2012, the timeline wasn't supposed to go way back to their childhood which some of you have read now. It was supposed to start during BBS itself. And since I missed that detail as I progressed, now the whole thing's a pile of mess.
I have to remind myself of my goal with this fic. And that is to somehow connect the KH Universe as far as I could comprehend. Yes. I welcome theories very much and have been doing this for years now. And with KH3 nearing? Welp. You can count that on the list as to why I can't help but wait first on how the game will end before finishing this very fic.
Having to go back to square one like rereading character backgrounds, world backgrounds, secret reports? And imagine I have to go from each of them from BBS to Dream Drop Distance (Chronological order)
Yup. I'm REWRITING MOST OF THIS FROM SCRATCH. No questions asked.
I love what I've written so far so I might just edit a few from these past 8 published chapters.
Nevertheless, I have to improve. All for the sake of my love for this game and to this story I have created from years ago now in tribute to that.
My dear Rae will be the witness and core of this story for me. Everything about Kingdom Hearts will be very much highlighted throughout the journey of this fic. But what I really want to do was show that through Rae's eyes. To where she will show her own character and relevance in this universe. OC or not.
I hope you will all forgive me and please understand that I whole-heartedly admit my mistakes on this. Yes, it's fiction. Fanfiction no doubt. However, somehow, somewhere within me, I made a vow to myself to have this legit as possible. And I never intend to create anything half-baked.
I pray that you all continue to be with me on this story's journey. It'll be another long while before I truly update this. And I may even have less followers for this (or worse…). But that's okay. All that matter is that I finish this.
Take note, if I ever do update again (and with an improved writing), I have to say that the story will still be ongoing. Just to be safe.
I'm in for another looooooooooooooooooooooooong ride of writing. Have I ever said how much I love this fic of mine? Just from the very title, I feel such pride whenever I search it. Because you will find no other title as similar as this one. That's why I just couldn't leave it. True, I may not update much due to Life being busy… But my mind couldn't rest whenever this story pops into my head, making me wonder what else I have next in store for it.
…I promise not to disappoint you all. I really do. It is with heavy heart that after 3 years of progress that I am about to delete these published chapters... But it's a must sacrifice...
For that, my dear readers,
Memories Seen Through Moonlit Eyes:
On the verge of being re-written.
(…This isn't the end. Every story continues forth;
So does ours…)
