End-of-volume feedback
1. Hello everyone, this is Andlao, your loyal friend who occasionally does not change randomly and double-shifts every day.
2. As you can see, the fourth volume of this book has finally come to an end, and there are many things I want to say, and it is estimated that there are many more nonsense than the previous ones combined.
3. From the perspective of the composition of the whole book, I was surprised to find that the current estimated number of volumes is seven, the first three are about the protagonist's past, the last three are the protagonist's future, and the fourth volume is the middle transitional volume.
4. The ending of this time is different, the end of the first three volumes can basically be regarded as the end of a unit, but the end of this time is the opening, the opening of the future.
5. As for what the future is, this is the ultimate mystery of this book, after all, there is no upgrade system in this book, it basically depends on my mouth, and the plot line that runs through the whole text.
6, I think it's quite powerful to think about it like this, I have been writing for so long by relying on a mystery.
7. I'm not very good at writing testimonials, because my thinking is more divergent, basically thinking of where to write, and it is a normal state for different logics to not match, so let's take a look.
8. Let's start with the characters in this volume.
9. Actually, what I want to try in this volume is a reversal of writing, not a reversal of plot events, but a reversal of characters.
10. For example, all the new characters that appear in this volume, if you look closely, you will find that their personality ideas when they first appear are completely different from after the event.
11. I don't think there is a need for an abrupt reversal, but it is better to go with the flow of the reversal, such as the seemingly sinister Haybold is actually a loyal minister, Erin who teases others will actually fall in love with others in the end, Hu Ao goes from ordinary people to faith to angry fighting, the naïve Liya is also in the whirlpool, and the reversal of defending peace and actually starting a war, etc.
12. What I want to write about is a natural "reversal", which is completely different from the first time it appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and it is not abrupt.
13. Of course, in order to make the writing more fluent, the impact of this reversal in the text is not strong, otherwise the reversal of every other laborious description will make people aesthetically fatigued.
14. And then back to the main character, Lawrence.
15. Actually, it's like talking about this for a long time, to be precise, the shaping of villains.
16. In the final analysis, the villain is the one who conflicts with the protagonist, but what is the reason for the conflict?
17. I think to describe a qualified character, you have to write what he is driven by and what he is doing to be a villain.
18. For example, power, what do you crave power for? Just because you like power and crave power, well, that's not bad, but it's obviously not interesting enough, so what about unifying the world? What is the villain unifying the world for, and I think it's cool to unify the world? It's also a reason, but it's obviously not interesting enough.
19, he always needs a reason to become a villain, stand on the opposite side of the protagonist, and have conflicts, not that I need a villain, just rub one out.
20. When it comes to the fun of the villain, I think the fun is related to why the villain is the villain and what he wants to do, and these examples are the characters that have appeared before.
21. The other is not interesting enough, but it becomes interesting when it is extreme enough.
22. For example, Moriarty, he does evil purely for the sake of goodness, he has been evil to the end, and he will not repent of death, so it is also quite interesting.
23. Then Lawrence is the main villain of this book.
24. Insert an interesting news, this is what a group friend told me, Lorenzo (Lorenzo) is an Italian variant of Laurence (Lorenzo), I checked the Oxford Dictionary, and this is actually true.
25. Suddenly, ...... A sense of fatalism has come up.
26. I have to say that this book is full of all kinds of unintentional insertions, and all kinds of strange metaphysics are written together.
27. Let's talk about the character of Lawrence (the following is copied and pasted from a sticky note, which may be a duplication of the previous discussion.) )。
28. How do I say this, in fact, I also talked about some of my writing ideas in my previous feedback, such as the part about "villain", I don't really want to write about it, it's just a very simple villain.
29. It is probably related to the psychology of wanting to write group portraits, I am more like trying to write it, more independent, for example, he has his own ideas, but due to different positions, he becomes the villain in the eyes of the protagonist, probably treating the same thing and having different views.
30, the protagonist is a point of view, Lawrence is a point of view, and the other characters are a point of view, which can also be seen as the three lines of the plot, and I don't know if this can be regarded as a kind of whitewashing, I still want to write, why did the villain do this, not to say, it's simple, I want to destroy the whole world like this.
31. I'm thinking about how to make this book a little different, out of the category of fighting monsters and upgrading, and raising it higher, such as saving the world.
32. In fact, when designing the villain, I thought a lot, how to write an impressive villain, some people say that evil is evil to the end, and death is not repentant, so I wrote a Moriarty, and I did not repent until I died.
33, the other is what I thought of not long ago, the conflict brought about by different positions, of course, this is a bit suspected of whitewashing, I have seen everyone's comments before, but I want to say, it is not to explain the reason for a person's "evil", it is whitewashing, I just want to improve this role, I don't want to be a "villain" because of "villain", and I also emphasized these in the article, and the wicked people are also very clear that they are not good things, even if it is said that it will not end well for the sake of "justice", but this is what he wants to do, and this is enough.
34. Describes Lawrence's conversion, his purpose, the reasons why he was unable to trust others, and what he had to do, and those who got in his way had to die.
35. As written in the text, everyone is righteous, everyone is evil, everyone will go to heaven, and everyone will go to hell.
36. The world is neither black nor white, but a delicate gray.
37. So in my mind, Lawrence is an extreme terrorist, he thinks well, his starting point is good, but he is extreme, and he can't reconcile with people, so he becomes a villain.
38. It's like zombies surrounding this building, and everyone is trying to find a way to escape, Lawrence's idea is to kill everyone in this building first, so that everyone who becomes a corpse will not become zombies and bite the survivors of other buildings.
39. Well, this example is indeed a bit neurotic.
40. The protagonist is going to take another path, a less extreme path, such as killing Lawrence, an extremist, first, and then finding a way to bring more people to survive.
41. And this is the story I want to write in the next three volumes.
42, the world is going to be destroyed, why is the world destroyed, and how should the protagonists save the world.
43. Of course, the setting of the destruction of the world will come back, it can be said that all the pits that appear in this book, all the settings I have basically come back, I feel that I am awesome, because I really didn't think so much when I first wrote it.
44. Speaking of saving the world, in the face of this question, the answer Lawrence gives is his extreme behavior, and the protagonist has to find another way, whether he is Lawrence who is not so extreme, or Lawrence who can trust people.
45. So as I said before, this is the kind I want to write about, people have different views on a thing, and make choices and conflicts because of their own experiences and situations.
46. Do evil things for noble reasons, and be willing to bear the price for it.
47. Then let's talk about another thing, in fact, according to my original idea, Erin will die on the run, and according to my idea, she will use secret blood in order to block the enemy, turn into a monster and overturn Curry, and give the ignorant kestrel a knife.
48, but I gave up, not for any other reason, mainly because I think that this book can be regarded as a more depressing and dark world setting, so bad, there must be some good hope.
49. So the girl survived, and a world without a sister being injured appeared.
50, by the way, let's talk about it, the reason for the sudden rise to write this volume, according to my original plan, there was no such volume, but because I heard two songs, I thought it was not bad, and a character vaguely appeared in front of me, and the reason why she appeared was the events behind it, which further triggered the plot to promote.
51. This volume was born under various circumstances.
52, the two songs are Gloria (Live) - Mando Diao, Miss Jackson - Panic! At The Disco
53, the name Gloria Jackson is the combination of two song titles, and it also combines the content of the lyrics to create an ideal character.
54, there is also a problem with the plot setting, in fact, according to my original design, Erin's should have appeared as early as the second volume, but think about it, each volume should have a primary and secondary division, the main events, the main characters, if you add Erin, it will look very messy.
55. Therefore, it has been put again and again, and it has only appeared now.
56. In the original design, it was not the kestrel that was ambiguous with Erin, but the protagonist.
57, then the problem is, this kind of is undoubtedly a poisonous point in the eyes of some people, ambiguous and even a little minotaur, and I myself think that the protagonist is too protagonist, and all good things are his, just like a cool protagonist.
58. So what to do? Why not spread out the emotional lines of the characters, such as including supporting roles, and writing in a way similar to group portraits.
59. And then there is what everyone sees.
60. Actually, what I want to write about is a change in mood and thoughts, doing evil, suddenly understanding the good, she wants to find a way to redeem, but it is too late, she goes to save Ivar, and in the end she fails, although she survived, but the beauty is no more, she also wants to stay, but she can't accept herself, so she leaves, and continues to find a way to redeem.
61. After all, a book should not be full of endless chopping, but should add some others, which are in line with the logic of the story and can make it more colorful.
62. According to my thoughts, it is so.
63. So I think in a story, its role should be transformed.
64, it's like the character is a funny bichon child when the word 10w, and it can't be like this when it's 100w.
65. Then, what else do you want to say?
66. So this book is still a web article that is not so online, thank you for reading it here.
67. Then ...... Conventionally, so far this book has been set at 2530, maybe it will be really good before the end.
68. Thank you buddies for your support, every subscription you make will become banknotes that I use to buy electric heating and electricity bills to help me survive the cold in the Northeast.
69, woo woo.
70. In the final analysis, online articles can be regarded as a kind of service industry, and I have read everyone's comments and this chapter.
71. Thank you to the readers who helped me pick the typos in this chapter.
72. After the end of the codeword, I have read the text several times, which makes it difficult for me to find the typo, thank you for your feedback, and of course, the old brother who has been picking my punctuation marks, which makes me feel like I am back in elementary school and being corrected by the teacher, and the whole person is a little younger.
73. There are readers who have been chasing it, rare treasures.
74. Then let's talk about some follow-up update plans, I want to be more diligent in the next updates, such as 6k a day, of course, it's more metaphysical, I have to think about the outline clearly.
75. And then you think I'm going to take a leave of absence?
76. No, this month's leave note has been used up, so let's rest next month.
77. If you really need to think about the outline, you will probably take a leave at the end of this month, and then refresh the leave slip at the beginning of the month, and then take another day or two days off.
78. I'm really calculating.
79, by the way, I solemnly recommend a peerless article "The Dream of the Old Gods" here.
80. In this terrible world full of cults, I just want to get ten tons of gold quickly.
81. The setting of the author's stellarity is great, I often discuss it with him, and it is also a street fight, so please take the trouble to watch it.
82. By the way, now his update is also stable...... Probably.
83. To be honest, it's really the first time I've written a recommendation, no, no, every time I pull my crotch, I'm recommending a certain book.
84. Anyone who understands understands.
85. And then that's about it.
86. After all, the progress of Ember is now officially more than halfway through, and the basic tone of the book has been set, what I can do is not to please anything, but to run all the way to the end according to my original plan.
87. I will do my best to write the ending of this story.
88. That's probably it.
89. I'll probably try something new in the next volume, and I'm still imagining, but there will be.
