Rewrite

I have to be honest here, I pretty much hate how my story's gone so far. I keep making Cutler overpowered, and any fight he gets into is way too easy. Also, I've deviated from my original idea of limiting his vine powers (or whatever you'd call it) to only being available when he's dug his fingers or toes into the soil. He shouldn't have had five fingers per hand, I shouldn't have given him the scythe so early, primarily because he doesn't exactly need it and it would only cause panic when he's walking around a town or city with it openly. That said, I should have made locals generally more wary of his presence, instead of them just accepting him as soon as he says "I'm friendly."

Well, this has turned into a complete moan, hasn't it? Anyway, the other reason I'm doing the rewrite is because I can't take the story any further without it seeming forced, and given my rapid decrease in chapters published this last fortnight or so, I'm going to pretty much stop altogether when college starts on the 11th. But, if I'm rewriting it, I should be able to get through a chapter a day (that might be a little hopeful) and resume regular chapter schedule in about a month or so.

So I'll be redesigning Cutler when I put the chapters out again. Also, there's a good chance I'll drop Clay from the story when I redo it. I had a better plan of where to put the Essence of earth without making a completely new character out the blue for my own convenience.

Sorry to all of you that were enjoying it. I will try to get back on track as soon as possible.
