I am a strong, STRONG believer that Inaho and Asseylum were meant for each other, but just as strongly, their souls… belong to their respective people. I completely support the canon ending and given the events as they unfolded I would expect nothing less of those two individuals. I am also exceptionally proud of the writers for not compromising their characters or plot to force a romantic ending that while satisfying in the short term, undercuts all the power the story had for a cheap payout.

Having said that, I cannot help but wonder, if something, somehow, along the way had been different could those two people have no found a way to live and serve their worlds together?

I have every desire to play the characters as close to canon as possible and stick to what story elements will continue regardless of the change I have made. Please feel free to comment if you feel I am divulging too far from those core characters (in a way that is constructive, anyone simply saying how they would have done it differently without supporting reasons or simply saying 'it was just wrong' will be dismissed with a pat on the head and told to go piss on someone else's parade).

Every 5th entry in the story will be an aside from me, posing questions, thoughts and ideas, before we reconvene for the continuation of the story. I am deeply inspired by this idea and I hope to post often, however I am also a single mom who is going to school, and moving this summer a state over, so bear with me if my muse is beaten into submission by the willful whims of a two-year-old.

I adore contact and feedback, you are always welcome to message me to simply talk, I often find myself inspired by the people around me as much as I am by my own creative power. Please bear in mind while doing so, I have only watched the anime, I have not had the opportunity to sit down and read for sometime, so I have not yet managed to make my way through the manga. (Does anyone by chance know how faithful it is?)

Thank you, and without further ado, this is The Heart of Aldnoah.
