She vanished… The same darkness that the woman commanded earlier suddenly enveloped her, and she was gone. Namal and her companion both jumped into defensive stances, eyes darting towards all the dark corners of the hallway. I looked around helplessly with my broken arm. Kirrtes reflected my…[Read more]

So I finished Elantris. It was really good, but there’s so many things in the Cosmere that is left unsaid. Apparently there is going to be a book two and three eventually though.

Hmmm, I don’t know.
Thinking about compounding each of them, it would have very unique effects. Electrum would be funny. If you compounded that, and get a massive amount of determination, you might just start thinking yourself a god, without that really adding to your physical power in any way. Pewter alo and Gold feu would be a good combo,…[Read more]

Sure, that works great, as long as you can type that easily.

Possibly, but this still feels kind of nebulas to me, even if it has a impact on him personally.

I’m doing what you suggested with finding consonant and vowel sounds. Do you happen to know how to write the sound that the ‘j’ in Eojold makes, phonetically? (It’s pronounced like the ‘g’ at the end of ‘garage’ or ‘sabotage.’) I can’t find any info online.
So I simply call this a French j. It’s usually notated with a j in French, or ge in…[Read more]

I think that would work yes. If he believed that they simply threw him away, then that would be something that would weigh on him heavily. However if this is to slide into the exposition you gave, that would mean he associates the Pythonos with his parents choice, which would suggest that it wasn’t their fault. This is the…[Read more]

Yeah, and names don’t have to be from the same language. A name that is noticeably foreign will be useful to say that the character is from a different context. If the character is from the same ethnic context, but has a foreign name, suggests a history with their parents, whatever that may be.

This is really up to you. I like the idea of the giving himself up thing instead of just being in the way though. It would cause a lot of emotional drive for Dabir later on. Not only because Amir saved him, but because he willfully took it upon himself.

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic Short Short Story Prompt War! in the forum General Writing Discussions 11 months, 2 weeks ago
This story is so sad! It’s really good though, well done! I don’t think we need to enforce the deadline. I would want ours to be judged in this case, because I went full comedy, and you were much more serious, so it’s not really possible to realistically compare them in a meaningful way. Thanks for the congrats though!

ChatGPT doesn’t work with making conlangs at all, I’ve made many heart felt attempts on helping it along.

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic The Adonial Saga in the forum Novel Critique Requests 11 months, 2 weeks ago
So I have a few questions about this. Is this all one language then, or is there room for diversification. I think that it can all be rationalized as cohesive, though I noticed not only Greek names, but also traces from languages like French. This is fine, just thought I’d mention it. If you want to pay a little more attention to the…[Read more]

Sorry I haven’t responded to this one until now. I think it’s good. All that I would mention is that the history tangent with the pythonos while only a paragraph or two, felt a little sudden. Lilitu is young, and while he may be thinking about these things, I think this part would flow much better if you made it much more of a…[Read more]

Congratulations! I wasn’t able to do it really. I was able to do that short story, and work a little on my current Novel though, just not quite 50,000 words, lol!

Lol! Do I win by forfeit, or is there anyone else that was working on this?

TheArcaneAxiom replied to the topic Short Short Story Prompt War! in the forum General Writing Discussions 11 months, 3 weeks ago
Ok, I went ahead and did it. I don’t know if anyone else did. Regardless, I’m sorry Rae, but you left too obvious of a exploitation in the prompt, and I had to take advantage, and it came out in a high degree of jest.
This is experimental for me, and I promise I wasn’t on anything XD!
