Hello everyone
Sorry, this is not a chapter. I know that there are not that many people reading it, but I think that I still should say this for those amazing people that spent their time reading what I wrote.
Since this idea refuses to leave me, I will be continuing this, however I will be rewriting it. I have never put that much effort into this fic, thinking that the idea will leave me soon. The more I thought about this, the more mistakes I have found.
Examples: While Helen is not the canon Harry, there are still some things I want to stick with - like Harry never abandoning his friends. So the very start of this fic must be changed. :/
The story itself must be changed a lot If I want to pull off what I have in mind - with Malos having a different goal from the original story, a lot of things will have to change. Without Malos as he is, Torna (the group) wouldn't be what it is in the first place even if it ended up existing. Yes, Jin wants the world destroyed, but he also does it because that is kind of what Malos wants.
On Amalthus: I guess some people think that understanding him means accepting his actions. That is not it. I understand where he came from but his actions are far from acceptable. I personally like Amalthus... at least until the fight under the world tree. It feels so weird that Amalthus would throw away 500 years of work like that. It almost feels like he became a totally different character and I really dislike what they did with him at the end, hece why I want to give him a different ending. It may not necessarily be a happy one but better than in the game. He did mess up a LOT.
I want to also make him a character that appears from time to time, knew that from the start. And not as an enemy. (Though not always as a friend either.)
Without going into too many spoilers, there will be a different 'bad guy' to fight, and it is quite an obvious pick considering the circumstances.
Still, I have a lot of work to do - must make a plan for key events at the very least to make sure I do not write myself into a corner by accident. The good news is that I have a good idea about a lot of things and how the story is going to end and I am sticking with that.
TLDR: Rewrite is on the way.
Thank you!
