Chapter 22 - Authors notes.
I have included this chapter, not because it is a continuation of the story but because it has several points in it on where I got ideas for some of the characters from and clears a few things up with a few facts.
---------------------------------------------
C.M Griffiths is my real name! It is not some pen name I invented.
It stands for Christopher Martin Griffiths
First of all, I created the religion myself an placed the cathedral near the looking glass. There is not religion or cathedral in book or the game.
The character of the signpost I invented after a passing thought. I wanted him to be a little apprehensive and maybe a little short tempered. After all, not many people like or appreciate being rooted to one spot every day for the rest of their lives.
Konchuu was a character I partially adapted from the character of Kai in a sci-fi series which I enjoy "Lexx" He was an assassin who killed for his master with out emotion or mercy. I envisioned him totally different though and did some research into a unique and interesting name.
The word "Konchuu" means "Insect" in Japanese
I see Christopher as what Alice could have been if there was no fire to begin with. He is innocent to begin with but he has a traumatic experience seeing his friends being killed by the evil hatter. As it is mentioned Christopher was killed by Konchuu and his essence was stolen rather like energy from enemies in the game but he took his soul along with him and he wasn't in control when Alice and Christopher kissed.
---------------------------------------------
One final note!
The joke the king tells at the end of the story is based on an actual event I saw with my girlfriend coming hoe from a night-club (I hear you shouting but I WASN'T drunk!).
I saw a seagull land in front of me, cross a road and perch itself on the roof of a nearby bus stop and looking around as if he was waiting for a bus. We found it hilarious.
I have ideas for a continuing story so if you would like me to continue writing Alice's adventures in wonderland. Please drop me a line at Aquarius@perfectworld.co.uk
