Closing remarks for volumes 1 and 2

First of all, I would like to thank every reader for their support and love, as well as the editors and teachers for their hard work, thank you!

After thinking about it again, I decided to say hello to you, how are you sleeping lately? Have you sunbathed in the sun? Have you eaten it?

No matter how busy you are with work and study, you must not forget your most valuable wealth - health.

I just want to talk about the update situation these days, since the end of March, I have been maintaining a workload of two shifts a day, no less than 4,000 words, in fact, I have a habit that is not particularly good - manuscripts!

I was busy with some work in the middle, and I thought that I might not be able to guarantee the amount of updates, so I tried every means to tie myself to the computer, soldering my fingers to the keyboard, and typing from morning to night.

In this way, after less than three days, I finally left a manuscript of about 50,000 words. Of course, this is also to be able to maintain stable updates in the event of an emergency.

But for now, life is still relatively stable, staying at home to occasionally cook and walk the dog, and the extra time is used to code words, constantly "helping" Draenor to think about plans to deal with the battle.

As someone may have noticed, since mid-April, I've been stuck between 2-4 p.m. for the release of new chapters (except for one chapter in the early morning of the 29th...... Because I found that some friends will subscribe to new articles as soon as possible after 12 o'clock, I still hope that readers and friends can stay up as little as possible, so, if nothing else, the future post time will also be between 2-4 pm.

Then there's the self-criticism, and to be honest, as a short story, the middle part, especially Dust of Origins, seems to be a bit too long, almost making one, or even two things happen, on the same day, and the main thing is that the side content seems a bit cumbersome. Although I was originally aiming for realism, it still seems that the plot content is a bit complicated. So in the next volume, the story will be shortened a bit, and similar plots will be avoided as much as possible, but this does not mean that the side content will be cut completely.

In fact, since the end of the second volume, you may have also discovered that "Bloody Domain" and "Dust of Origin" both tell the story of the protagonist group trying to find the antidote, but the closer to the end, the whereabouts of the antidote become more and more ambiguous. In fact, the journey is often like this: the farther away, the purer and clearer the goal; On the contrary, the closer one gets to the truth, the more obscure and gloomy it becomes.

It seems that reaching the end goal is the same as reaching the end, but I have always believed in the truth that "life never ends, and the journey does not stop". Like sea turtles that have gone through a lot of trouble to reach the beach to lay their eggs, for them the completion of this goal does not mean the end, their offspring and themselves are destined to return to the ocean, and even before they have time to get lost, they will continue to be busy for survival.

From the beginning to the present, I have also witnessed the process of a stranger gradually moving from loss and loneliness to determination and fearlessness, and I believe the change in Delano's mood during this period is also obvious to everyone. I've always admired the natural law of "dust to dust, dust to earth", all of which started with a curse and will end with a curse, and so far, fortunately, "Dust of Origins" still has a happy ending, but in fact, I hope that the last chapter of this volume can bring you a kind of reverie: returning to reality from a nightmare often means that you really died in a nightmare.

To be realistic, for the sake of the abundance of manuscripts, I don't plan to take a leave of absence after the end of this volume, and my liver told me that I can continue to write, at least I can ensure that I can keep it updated every day as usual.

Secondly, the length of the book, Meng Li expects a total of 3-4 volumes, each of which is related to this part of the story, but not just an emotionless term, but a symbol of the change in Draenor's heart: from fear to confusion to steadfastness. By the way, it was originally expected to end around May or June, so the ending volume was opened according to the plan, but it was more like a fresh start than the ending.

Finally, seeing this, I believe that readers who know Cthulhu have imagined the villains that will appear in the later stage, but they are not actually villains...... Although it doesn't have much to do with the work itself, I'm still afraid that it will spoil if I say too much, so the final ending will lose some of the fun, so I hope you stay tuned!

…… Thus, the curse of the "White Tempering Fire" is over, but the journey with you continues.

The spring in reality is about to pass, and the "winter" in the dream is coming.

…… Thanks for having you!
