    Do people still read thsese?

    Hello everyone. Back from the dead so I can bring a small piece of Goddess of Empathy before the next chapter, showing a bit of what the God of Knowledge is about. Part of the Sovereigns contest which I wanted to participate before it ended (apparently?)

    Also, if you read Goddess and you're wondering: This takes place some years before Sunset's execution.

    Finally Finished The Third Chapter

    Some might've seen it already, but yeah. The Third Labor is finally over. I knew this was a chapter of many reveals but honestly it never occurred to me it would extend so much. I really have made a big world with a lot of people Sunset has talked and befriended, there's many more she'll find in her travels.

I'm Alive And Working. Also, Situation Report. · 5:44pm Aug 25th, 2021

Hello everyone, sorry for not being very active recently, between writers block, tests, and other personal problems, writing has been slow, but I've been making advances. Mainly with Goddess of Empathy, which is about 50% done by now and hopefully the other half will be easier to write out now that things are getting more comfortable.

As a proof of good faith, let me give you this little bit of info about Sunset's next challenge:

"The Sirens were the queens of Dazzberos, a now ruined kingdom on the other side of the Lacoltnia sea."

The shadows moved, taking the form of three long haired women dressed in different styles of armor.

"They were part of Grogar's legion, along with Tirek, Ariadne Hiveblood, and Gusty the Great. They were the captains of his forces, but they mostly handled the slave trade in his territory, using some sort of magical song to control their subjects and even some enemies that had lost the will to fight. When The Pillars invaded Dazzberos, Star Swirl captured them and turned them into monsters.”

As for the rest of my work, I'm currently working on my entry for the StarTrixMaud contest, that I'm sure that some will find interesting. After that, I would try to focus on finishing My Role To The Princess, which has about 9 more short chapters till completion. Next, for new series and stuff between more Goddess (because it's pretty long) I'll start working on a reboot of Where's My Daughter? That will hopefully become a new small series.

That's all I'm willing to share for now, hope you all have a good day.

I'll be watching you.

Ooh, quite the tease for Sunset’s epic quest. Looking forward to more there.

Thank you for the update!

Also...Quick question! I had some difficult getting into the vibes of the goddes of empathy. So I just want ask? Is explored or even a thing that Sunset is not guilty? This not to say a guilty or not Sunny is bad more over from the description and tone (greek mythology) it makes question how valid her "punishment is?"

I suppose this comes from often newer writers. (For me, mind) not wanting or knowing to handle Sunset's action's with that of a immortal god queen's. This also not to say people are not successful...cough you cough. But, it really is hard sometimes when people sort just crap on great character! (Which need not be good or nice to be...complex and fun to read bought?)

Ok, I think I get what you're asking.

Sunset is guilty of trying to steal the Crown of Magic, and execution is the punishment for that kind of crime. It doesn't mean that Celestia was happy about it, or that Sunset didn't have a good reason to do it at the start that got twisted halfway through her methods. Also, gods here are more human than what is known of them.

I usually don't try to make things a one sided good or bad thing, just everyone having different views of what is better, and what actions are justified to achieve that.

Hope this answers your question

Yes! I vibe with Sunset not being pooped on and morally Grey and humane "gods"

Thanks for the answer! Now on to reading!

Ps. I put quotes cause folk's tend to make their god's able to be killed fairly speedy. Eventually. Or even just very very fallible. Thus in my mind...they are really only god's by their defined greater power compared to humans. Even allowed to have...read techno is magico.
