The World Stones

Technology, Companies, Creatures, Characters, and more!

Been a while since the last update, huh. Well, good thing today is a big one, and I really mean its a big one.

The wiki has a whopping 7 new characters, 2 new creatures, 4 new plants, 4 new companies or organizations, 11 new pieces of technology, equipment, or products, and a whole new historical event + a bunch of minor tweaks.

All of those entries have dedicated, long and detailed pages for what/who they are, how they function, and a crap ton of extra information.

The main character’s (Kiryu Ardoladd’s) second name has been completely changed as well!

As for the book itself, I have made substantial progress on the second draft of the first third of the first book (that’s a mouthful), and I am already near the end of chapter four. It has been refined, and is a lot better than the original ever was. When it comes out (god knows when), I’m certain you will enjoy it!

Anyway, here’s the more detailed breakdown of what’s new!

Tweaks + New Second Name for the Main Character

I also tweaked a bunch of minor things, character entries, names, history etc. to make them as accurate and cohesive as possible.

As well as that, I changed the main character’s (Kiryu Ardoladd’s) second name, the name he gets when he becomes a citizen of the Lumare Empire;

Noe Kazuki ( = Mist, hope for peace), has now been changed to Renji Caldara (Ren = lotus/samurai warrior/love/goodness, caldera = lake formed when a volcano erupts and collapses in on itself).

The name Renji Caldara better reflects his character and symbolizes his journey, on top of sounding better in other languages. On top of that, it allows for pet names (such as Ren) to be possible, adding to the versatility and ease of pronouncing the name.

Other than that, I added some extra info and pictures for The Allfather Demon, the main antagonist of the series, so be sure to check that out 😉
