So, I'm guessing you know what's coming, given the title of this note.
This has been something I've considered doing for a while now, pretty much since I announced my rewrite of my Game of Thrones story. I haven't been sure until now, but now I know for certain. Damocles: The Dark Avenger will not be continuing. At least, not as it is.
I'm not going to lie, I went into this story with only the barest outline of what I was doing. Obviously, I worked more on my plan, but it was a hodgepodge of a plan, one that barely makes sense to look at. That combines with my drooping interest in the show and commitment to other things in my life, and I have completely lost the point from where I began.
So, I'm going to start again.
This won't be for a while. University, work and my Game of Thrones story (which I plan to being very soon) make this near impossible. But, the planning has already begun. Not everything will change, since I do like the backbone of my original story, and plan to follow it as close as I can. In fact, there will likely be scenes in the new story that are either very similar or copy-and-pasted from the old one. Some would call it cheating, but I'm not going to let my old work die if it can still be of use to me.
As with my Game of Thrones story, I am open to any suggestions you want to make. Any character you want to see interact with my own, any particular path he should take? I'm open to anything. While I like to think my writing is good, it never hurts to have outside input on possible alterations to the path it takes.
I will leave the old story up as long as I can, since I know, or at least like to hope, that people still enjoy it. Again, I can't stress how sorry I am that I cannot carry on. While I have tried rewriting, it just doesn't hold up, at least for me. I can only hope you understand and support my decision. If not, then I understand, and hope you come back when I try again.
Thanks for reading this far, and I hope to see you all in the future. You really do make what I do fun.

Update (hopefully the only one)
So, I thought I'd give a little more detail on when the rewrite can be expected. While I am planning it now, I likely won't begin any actual writing until 2020, since, with the show ending, I want to try and have at least a base layout of the entire story, from beginning to end. I'm sorry if anyone was hoping for an earlier start, but, as I said above, I have no plans to write this without a fully working...well...plan.
Also, as I said both in my Game of Thrones notice and above me in this one, I am completely open to any suggestions concerning the direction this story should take. I love to write these stories (although my attention span is clearly lacking), but I also love for them to be read and enjoyed, not to mention that some of my best plans, both for this story and others, have come from suggestions and input from you. So, if any of you have something you'd like to potentially see, please do leave a comment (I am already pretty interested in previous ones concerning a certain Ra's al Ghul, but that remains to be seen).
Anyway, thank you for both reading this far and your support (it seriously helps me to write knowing there are those out there who actually enjoy my work, for some unknown reason), and I'll catch y'all later.
