AN: PLEASE READ
Hi Everyone,
So, recently I have been thinking about which direction I want to take the story going forward. I have really enjoyed what I have written so far but right now I am struggling a lot with characterization, particularly with regards to how I was to portray Eilidh and Aegon in the future. I have realised recently that there are certain scenes which are very dear to my heart which I can now no longer portray due to making Aegon's actions seem irredeemable. I also feel I have taken a lot of the sick perverted part of his character and left out the damaged, tormented parts. I am not saying his actions are justified but I cannot ignore the fact that as much as Aegon is what he is, it is a machination of the torment he has suffered in his life which I feel hasn't come across well in this iteration.
Equally, I wish to portray Eilidh in a much more caring and kind light. I have felt I have certainly leaned more into the animosity side of her, particularly when it comes to her relationship with Aemond but that is not all I feel she is and the whole point is to have her as this opposing force to him, in both their personality and their ideology. She would handle things the complete opposite way to Aemond and that is what I feel makes their relationship so compelling to me is the push and pull between what is right and what is easy.
Therefore, I have decided to take a step back and take a long hard look at it and make some rewrites in order better characterize the people I want to have in this story.
I do apologise for the changes. I will post the new story all together so as not to confuse between the different versions. I know people like where things have been going so far and I appreciate your love and support and if this then means you no longer wish to read on then I can only be sad to see you go but I understand. Though I do hope you accept the new story and love it just as much as I love writing it.
Lots of Love,
