Author's note: Chapter delay
Hey guys; been a bit; this coming Friday I will post the next chapter; my apologies for the delay, this is a long one and I'm sure you'll all enjoy the content; also the next chapter is a big milestone because it will be the half-way mark for this story; slightly past it; there will 64 chapters in all for this story; this next chapter will be Najenda's focus chapter, following it will Yami's focus chapter which is concurrent with this next chapter; after that will come an interesting chapter where the four remaining Night Raid girls who aren't yet fully part of the harem: Mashiro, Bullock, Remus, and Womyn will share a focus chapter. (Cassandra and Pais will be joining the harem fully in chapter 35 which is Najenda's focus chapter) From there I will have three more focus chapters: Makoto's, Doya's and Kurome's in that order; following that we start that true war in earnest; also I hope you guys are aware at this point that Tatsumi and anyone on his side will be their own faction; both Honest's Puppet Empire and the Revolutionary army will be his enemies; if you think this story is over though its not by a longshot.
Also following it's conclusion I have a follow up sequel that I will start writing after the conclusion of Empire's end; by the way the story itself techinqully will end with Chapter 61; 62 will be a historical record of events afterwards, 63 will be an Erasiel centric chapter where he delivers the finished story to Asha, and 64 will be my closing thoughts/the cast of who'd voice the characters in the story. But trust me that's a long way off; I think though at the rate I keep going with a chapter a week (Two if you guys are lucky and I go on a roll) we should be done by the series anniversary.
Also reviews: I have been so far willing to let guests review as they see fit but now I'm going to lay down some ground rules with regards to reviews as recently I have received two reviews of people claiming to be me; which is bull because I am me.
No using my username for posts, guests using my name will have their reviews deleted immediately.
Constructive criticism only; flames and trolls will be beaten up and thrown out
Blood Clan guys; be you and remember I let you guys post the stuff you do out of amusement; but remember none of it is canon; this is my story and while I welcome suggestions I'm not going to implement them all; especially if I have no idea what's going on with the plot.
Suggest ideas you have often; I'm open to suggestions, additional characters you'd like to see added in, especially villains because I exhausted canon's list; only things I'm not willing to accept are suggestions to kill off characters or stuff that runs counter to what a character would do; for example Tatsumi isn't going to kill a child or a pregnant woman, or a woman in general; the prior two because they are defenseless or bare the defenseless and the reason he won't kill women is because of the nightmares he's had of him killing Aria; those nightmares albiet they are Honest's doing have had a psychological effect on him that he would make a momentary hesitation that would get him killed that being if he sees a woman about to be killed he sees Aria from his nightmares; and while canon Tatsumi will kill a woman Empire's End Tatsumi won't because he hasn't been put into a situation where he's had to until after he's had to deal with the Nightmares which have caused him to suffer a case of Post-Traumatic stress, mainly because Honest kept throwing this Nightmare at Tatsumi after they first met, so if he were to be put in that hypothetical situation he wouldn't be able to do it.
Keep it positive; if you have negative thought express them in a neat and orderly fashion and explain what I could do to improve it.
Be nice to other people in the Reviews; Especially Neo-Byzantium as he is my Co-Author, so ask him stuff from time to time I regularly update him via PMs as to plans for the story.
Don't compare any character to their canon counterparts; in fact don't mention the so called 'canon' here because it is just a horrific nightmare created by Honest to torment you all; here the story will have a happy ending; granted people will die but that's what you get out of a war story; after all we don't expect our favorite characters to survive in Star Wars movies right (Don't mention the Sequal trilogy here; that is even more non-canon then canon AGK)
That's all for now I want you guys to enjoy my work, the next chapter will be out on Friday and well it will be long but there will be lots of lemons in it so you have that to look forward to; also expect some familiar faces from other franchises to show up in the next chapter; mainly because as I've said before I'm out of Character ideas and need to flesh out the universe so as I did with Clementine I've taken characters from other franchises and thrown them in, granted they aren't exactly the same as this is different place but they are relatively true to character to a degree. Also remember this is a fantasy setting so if races that seem outlandish show up remember fantasy setting set in a world that has been changed much like me who took it from the ash heap of its cruel demented writers and turned it into a better story; something truly unique as I'm the only one here I think that's opted for a happier story and taken the Characters in the direction I have.
So for now that's all: see next chapter: Nathan Out!
