Journey of the Son of Ares

Phase 1 Afterword



Hello, AC here. It's been a while since I've talked to you directly. Things were happier back then. Well, Aurelius did kind of put his hand through someone's chest, but you know... got bigger issues now.

It's all just beginning, though. "The Last Hunt", I think, was one of the first ideas I had when I started planning JSA roughly a year ago. It was also one of the monumental points that the story was structured around.

It was meant to turn things on their heads. Like a rude awakening, the purpose of the Last Hunt was to take the uncertainty in the story and slap you in the face with the answer. This is a story where plans don't work, winning has a price, and relationships aren't indestructible.

The story was never about Mircrest or Numen. Nor was it ever just about strength or duty. It has always been and will always be about the Golden One and the world.

And when the ones that kept his feet on the ground are gone and his enemies have doubled, is there any room for anything but raw strength?

That is the story of Phase 2: The liveD.

However, I am sorry to tell you, the uploads are taking a break. I'm not saying that I will be taking a break because I won't be. I'll probably be gone for a few months, and in that time, I'll be rewriting and making edits to the first phase, completing my final outline for the second phase, and writing a bunch of chapters for my backlog.

I am a little afraid that people will drop the story because of the break, but I trust that you'll be patient with me.

Again, thank you for reading Phase 1: Gilded, and if you could drop a rating or a review, I'd really appreciate it. And in case anyone has any questions, I'd be happy to answer them in the comments.

See you soon.
