Hello everyone! I had an idea for a different project than intrigued me enough that I felt the need write it down. This doesn’t happen very often to me. In fact, I think the series I am currently writing, The Narrow Path Trilogy, it the only other idea I have had. So I had to put working on TNPT Book II aside this week and jot down this scene and world building ideas I had so that if I ever do want to take this further, I’ll remember where I was going. (Sorry to those who are currently reading TNPT Book II.)
I’m curious what other people think of this idea and if they think this is something that should be further developed. This document contains a scene showcasing the protagonist an his faithful companion. Please note, this is not supposed to be a likeable character. I’m trying to go for interesting character instead, so he’s going to have some questionable ideas in his head. The scene is just over nine pages long. If it intrigues you, there are some world building notes below.
If you don’t want to read it or are too busy, don’t worry about it.
(Note: This is a darker than what I usually write.)
Because of weird website glitches, I will post the links bellow.

May 30, 2025 at 5:06 pm #203637I thought it was interesting! The beginning was slightly confusing, because I couldn’t figure out how Cedrick was narrating. But it has a very intriguing premise!
Isaiah seems… questionable, like you said. I would like to see Hana meet him.
If you add to it, please tag me!

All right! Thank you both! I’m happy to hear you found it interested. It will probably be a while until I return to this, but if I ever do I will let you know.

Yeah, making that work is going to be a bit of a challenge. I know I should introduce Isaiah first to avoid confusion on the protagonist, so I’m going to have to find a more natural transition to the reveal that his pet is telling everything. The idea of a dragon narrating the story has been one I have had for a while.

I liked it more until my one friend got way too good at it. But I still love the artwork and world it takes place on.
