    Hey, everyone!

    I want to first of all thank everyone who's shown interest and read through any stories I've put out over these past...5 years? Has it really almost been that long?

    Sorry for the long break!

    Hey everyone! After about 7 months of figuring out personal life things and getting into the writing spirit, I can say with full authority that I've begun writing for Dogs of War again! I've also decided to focus entirely on this story, and I plan to stick with it until it's done.

    Change of pace...maybe?

    Hey, everyone who sees this...Been a while huh?

    Well, no need to beat around the bush here, but I recently just finished coming home for the summer, and decided to get to working on chapter 2 of my Era of Harmony sequel.

    Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

    Important update on...well, everything I guess

    hey yall! Im still alive and kicking, even if the Army decided to send me to the woods for 4 days of mission drills and land navigation (more fun than it sounds, for those who dislike sweating in the florida sun).

    Era of Harmony Birthday! And its Future as well...

    Hey! Era of Harmony turned 2 this January! Can't believe it's already been that long...

    For those who have read it or want to, I have an idea. I'll be finishing Mark of the Butcher soon and honestly might be putting Dogs of War on the backburner for now until ideas start pumping.

Era of Harmony Birthday! And its Future as well... · 3:58am Mar 9th, 2023

Hey! Era of Harmony turned 2 this January! Can't believe it's already been that long...

For those who have read it or want to, I have an idea. I'll be finishing Mark of the Butcher soon and honestly might be putting Dogs of War on the backburner for now until ideas start pumping.

Question is, would yall want a sequel or a remaster of the story? If I remaster, I'm going to flesh out the characters and story more...enough to where it's length might double. I'm also down to just do a sequel, but I want yalls opinions first.

Also, ignore the double posting...I somehow managed to post it twice, and if there's a misspelling then I'll fix it later I'm tired.

I would like a remaster first

I've honestly been considering it. A lot of story lines and characters in Era of Harmony were honestly rushed through when they could've been given more depth (first storyitis or not, its still mediocre), and by the time I did start fleshing out the story was almost over anyway, and I really do like that story, so revamping it isn't a bad idea at all.

Sequal. We can both run ours together. Side by side.

5717363
Damn, that's a good point. I'm seriously torn on which to do, but a sequel would also allow me to work the ridiculous amount of ideas I have for the brothers into fruition...while closing off plot points that hadn't been answered once and for all.

5717366
You're telling me.

Do you remember how many open plot points and unanswered questions I left open after the conclusion of my story even after the epilogue and Bonus chapter ending?

There's a reason the cover art draws so much attention to Changeling armor and weapons of Cadance and Shining.

But, at least, if all goes well, next chapter will debut the first facial reveal of Cerb outside of cover art.





By the way. If you'd like some cover art for a sequel, feel free to float me some ideas. I got some time on my hands now that my health went to hell.

5717368
Wait, you mean your the one who does your art? I always thought you got it commissioned!

That's insane! I'll keep that in mind

I've done some of my own art, but not all of it. Some of the art I've done have been edits, while others have been full-on illustrations and colorizations.

As an example of an illustration that was done by me:

Vs an example of a mostly image edit with a few original pieces I added in:

I'm still working on improving and making strides in different areas... assuming my current issues won't hold me back.

5717374
Damn, your quite the artist...meanwhile I can barely draw stick figures lol

5717375
Meh. I manage to pull of some decent work every now and then.

Honestly sequel, to me personally this original is amazing as I'd, and I'm interested in what new adventures they can get into.

5717434
Yeah, the original is pretty good. I'm just a perfectionist at heart lol, and sometimes looking back I see a couple things I could've done to make it flow better.

Honestly though, I'm leaning more towards a sequel anyway since I have a couple hundred ideas for the brothers
