If I get bored enough, I'll check out the trailers. To be honest, I wasn't expecting anything interesting out of SE this year.
Oh I am aware. Just thought this one fact could interest you.
Sad to say, I've been largely ignoring all of the KHIII news in the past few years. I'm pretty much done with the franchise I's afraid.
Btw I know you’ve long since fallen off the bandwagon, but have you seen the latest KH3 trailer? Apparently, Aqua has fallen into darkness, become possessed by Xehanort, whatever you wanna call it. I definitely did not expect them to go there and I am intrigued.
That happens.
Who knows, though so far the cosmology is pretty closely tied to the plot. Let’s just say, though I tried to limit the influence of my inspirations, in some ways, this is getting even more Xenogearsy than before
Pretty much. I don't think there is anything wrong going too deep in. Who knows, maybe you'll like the cosmological aspect so much you'll reuse elements of it for future stories.
Yeah, same for you. I am a bit worried I am going in a bit too deep, but I really hope it’ll help me in the end. I think it was Hemingway that coined the iceberg rule - that you know a lot more about the character (or world in this case) than you read, so that the rest can be naturally deduced by the reader.
Gotcha. Well I hope you can find a good solution for figuring out the mechanics.
How do I put this. It’s a science, but it was created based on the other form of magic. It’s stull supernatural, in a sense, in that the original magic predates it, but it involves techniques that allow it to sustain itself even when magic is at so low a point that it can’t manifest in people at all. There’s the implication that alchemy might just actually have a different source altogether, but that’s spoiler territory, I guess
