1-6 Thoughts
This is a blog post talking about 1-6, if you haven’t read it yet, do so here. If you want to give criticisms for this section of the story, you will be able to post in the comments here!
If everything went according to plan, this should be the last of the immediately uploaded chapters when the website is released to the public. Hope everything works according to plan!
Regardless, this is the chapter that introduces The Liberators of Society! You know how I was a little concerned about characters like Messa and Isaac having a lack of depth at the start of the story? Well, that’s not the case for these guys! Now, a smart person may ask “If these are the far better characters when compared to your current protagonists, why isn’t the story about them?” Well, a few reasons. I feel like I’ve made it clear enough in this chapter that I can say it here: These guys are villains! While that doesn’t technically make them any worse candidates for spot of protagonist group, since plenty of people have written evil protagonist characters before. But that’s not the type of story I want to tell. Unless you count that part where Isaac being a race ignorant white guy, something that’s reinforced this chapter when he has to say to himself that the person he just met is, in fact, not white. Our protagonist, ladies and gentlemen!
Speaking of our protagonist, I gave him a drop of trauma this chapter, it’s not gonna be a super important scene though, so don’t except a super serious and dark consequences from that moment. Although, the moment is important in a roundabout way, as you’ll see next chapter.
Another thing I want to talk about is the use of special fonts. Remember when I said Lina won’t be an important character because she doesn’t have a special font. Well, one of the points I wanted to get across for this chapter is that just because a character has a special font, doesn’t mean that I’m not gonna kill them off immediately. No using meta stuff to find who is and isn’t important. Well, there still is meta stuff that you can use, but it’s just the normal meta stuff, so no problems there.
