The short answer is, I don’t really know yet. *muffled laugh/crying*The longer answer, is I don’t really know yet, but,
it’s a story that takes place in a fantasy world of people who resemble elves, but also kinda resemble fauns. (But more than anything else they just look like people, lol.) There are probably several kingdoms, but there are only two relevant to the story. They’re sister kingdoms that once were one, but for whatever reason (once I figure out said reason, it’ll be rad) they split into the two in the distant past. Now every so often (possibly once every generation, but it might be more like every 3rd generation?? dk, lol) they have one child from each royal family betrothed to one another as a sort of symbol of their continued unification, even though they’ve been severed. The main character was a girl who’s betrothed to a guy (he was the secondary character) and was going to follow them on an adventure put into motion by the guy character’s brother (who’s kinda angsty and stupid, hehe.) but then I realized he (the stupid/angsty kid) has the biggest change arc, and has the most agency of the three characters, so I think he (who was my antagonist) is now my protagonist?? So the story plot is up in the air, but they’d be doing all sorts of fantasy quest junk, whilst the main story was actually about the relationship between the two brothers/kinda also the girl too, because she’s significant.
That makes no sense, but that’s a messy summery.
Oh yeah, and there’d be fuzzy mountain snowcat things, cloud dragons, and this cool mapstone thing. C:
It’s weird, ’cause the previous protagonist has existed for almost 3 years now, but her story has changed so much. And now she isn’t even a protagonist anymore. x’D Funny how that happens. I don’t doubt things will change a lot in the next 3- or maybe even 13 years. Who knows how long this thing will simmer before it’s good to go, yk?Hehe, now, did you really expect to get away with asking that question without me asking you back? What’s your story about? The one you really really care about?
I might have a drawing of my use-to-be-protagonist… (Oh yeah, and her name has changed in the past few weeks, haha. For years it was Aspen, but now it’s Ansley.)
