Author's note only…no new chapters.
Sorry to disappoint but the next chapter isn't ready yet…well that's not really true. It is but with Book Five out I've had to … alter my story some bit. My first plan was to just scrap the fic and shove the channeling bit to year six, post-OotP. I liked how JKR had further developed Angry!Harry…did anyone else think he was kinda hot?? …just me huh? I also adored her new characters like Tonks, Luna and the other Order members. But the main problem with that was the uh…lack of Sirius. *sniff* Padfoot will be sorely missed and he was going to play a large part in my fic.
So now I'm just going to continue with what I've got. It's mainly going to be a rewrite of book five with some plot taken in. There will be obvious changes of course. Kingsley and Figg will continue to teach DADA, Umbridge will still show up though. I'll try to humanize Draco; he seemed to one-dimensional. I'm still up in the air with Snape though…Fucker killed Sirius. Ideas? Dumbledore, I have plans for. Bastard will get what's coming to him. Padfoot will live on. Prophecy will be the same. I was going to bash Ron but now he'll pass off as more sympathetic. The Harry/Hermione/Ron thing won't be resolved so soon though, so prepare for a lot of UST. *teehee* Luna was interesting and she'll be bonding more with the group, as will the twins. I've really taken a liking to Fred and George. [btw has anyone read the piece on the lexicon about George being the helpful twin? It was very insightful]
Another problem that hatched was the whole Slytherin perspective that I wanted to add. I've got an idea for another story that is nearly about the same thing and I don't think regurgitation is good. So this fic will be more, dark Gryffindor than Good Slytherin. The other fic will be more political with a lot of idealistic notions and realistic realizations. So look out for that soon.
But the new chapter won't be up for at least another 2 weeks. I've got a bunch of tests coming up and need to study. So sorry. I'm also looking for a beta reader…anyone interested?? Please??? Just read my stuff and judge whether some ideas can work or not… anyone??? Email me……..
Replies to ReviewsDaBear: No, I'm not incorporating any of the Wheel of Time Mythology with the Chosen and the whole cycle…I don't think my mind is capable of playing in Robert Jordan's sandbox =P
Dragons Blood: The whole concept of channeling and the Five Elements are taken from The Wheel of Time Books. I would think elemental magic like ice can be used by these fire though, for example just extracting heat from water [?? Just of the top of my head] Most of the abilities Harry will obtain can most probably be found from RJ's books tho, so read those if your looking for spoilers =D
Silnar: I wasn't going to add the taint at first, as I would then have to develop further backstory, which seems very dodgy at times. But then I further thought it over and my muse struck and the whole idea I got was very intriguing. It won't have to do with any sealing of Dark Ones eons ago. I don't really want to just say it out and spoil it as it plays quite a big part. If anyone is interested, just e-mail me and I'll give a gist of what I'm talking bout.
One thing I envy about Rand was the whole Min/Elayne/Avin ship…luck bastard. Hmm. Maybe I'll write a Harry/Ginny/Hermione/Tonks ship….
Alex20: The inclusion of the druid history was just thrown in as it just kinda fit. But I will delve in it in the sequel to the fic [I'm envisioning fics covering year 5-7]
I'm reconsidering sending Snape to pick up Harry from Privet Drive… I was thinking Tonks and Kingsley might be a bit more suited. Would this bother anyone??
I'd also like to thank all the reviewers even if all you said was good work. Your support is very much appreciated.
If anyone wants to question anything, leave a review or email me. I'll try to help. Thank you.
Uh…I'll stop rambling now…
