www.mtlnovel.com, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Lord of the Mysteries 2 Ring of Fate!
First of all, I would like to thank the friends who can still gain emotions such as touch, happiness, and satisfaction from the story of fate.
A sentence I mentioned several times in my testimonials or at the end of the chapter is: I can’t meet all expectations of everyone, because everyone’s personality and experience are different, and their demands will be different, and they may even contradict each other. Wanting all of them is often equal to not being pleasing to all, and it will only make the story look different. Sometimes, some people can get what they want to express, and some people can't get it. This is not the author's fault, and of course, it is not the reader's fault. It can only be said that in the corresponding scene, the two parties are not in the same channel.
I used "Light Chaser" as the title of the second volume this time, because I not only like grand narratives, but also like a group of people from generation to generation, for the same goal, overcoming thorns and thorns, working hard, struggling, self-sacrificing, chasing that ray of light , I also like to write about those small human beings in life. In a world full of suffering, a large number of people struggle to live for small hopes and a better future, moths to the flame.
This is like when the sun is shining, there will always be a lot of dust under the light, some of them will gradually fall, but new dust will come and join the dancing ranks, and fate will mock and say, "Look, again There are stupid people chasing the light, look at the losers ahead, they are enough to fill the sea".
Such light chasers may have a gloomy ending, and they may only utter a curse after spending their whole life, but they still yearn for the light, but they cannot reach it.
Therefore, I wrote the second volume from two perspectives. One is Lumian's inner struggle, from wandering back to pain, confusion and resistance to gradually rebuilding social relations, and then to being hit again and again, and his values shattered. Power, the initial process of self-salvation from the perspective of the soul, and the second is the experience and results of the specific people around, and these in turn give Lumian that energy and different degrees of strength.
From the beginning to the present, Lumian's personality has definitely undergone small changes, but there are no essential and fragmented changes. Just put aside the reasons and excuses he made for himself, and see what he has done and how he treats his surroundings. Those people can really know what kind of person he is.
He used to have a beautiful family, but was ruined by his father. He was once protected by his grandfather, but he watched his last relative die of illness. During this process, he wandered around as a child for a few years, relying on being cruel and cruel to squeeze himself to survive, but when he had spare energy, he would take the initiative to help a group of dying old people who reminded him of his grandfather.
This is his original background, and the five or six years of living with Aurora are critical years for the growth of a person's character. He is softened by a comfortable and warm life, taught and nurtured from various aspects. The original background has shaped his current character, he will empathize with the bottom, and will insist on offering help.
After remembering that his sister is a believer of destiny with the help of Mrs. Puares’ words, Lumian’s collapse is not only the fall of hope, but also the shattering of values. He helped the playwright unconsciously to find something to do, because the other party is also a writer , is the desire to vent his inner emotions. In the process, he will inevitably go against the three views taught by Aurora, and will also appear to be indifferent to everything, and he will do something when he sees what others do. After that, I experienced the misfortune of the people at the bottom again and again, and felt anger and unwillingness from it. After having empathy, I regained the three views formed by Auror's influence.
Therefore, after he pushed Franka away, he said that someone once reached out to him. At this time, I really presented the image of the character under the water in an intuitive way. Therefore, the person who gave the light not only It not only gave him a good life, but also shaped his current personality. That light is not only Aurora, but also his self-salvation soul. Truly shaped his current Aurora.
Here, it doesn't matter what kind of person Aurora is, what matters is the influence and significance she brings to Lumian.
Sometimes, if you really write based on other people's comments, you will find that it has no effect or meaning, just like when I write Aurora, a bunch of people will come out and say why I am my sister again, why I am thinking about Aurora again, Don't write it, and the same group of people say how thin and illusory Aurora is, I can't empathize with it, so, what do you want, you can't write it, but you have to shape it well? My choice can only be to start very early, see similar comments, just slide down and skip, and follow my own steps.
In fact, I probably understand the real reason and the crux of the problem. After I finish writing Fate, I will analyze it carefully. It is very interesting to read the psychological state, but it is meaningless to do this now, and it will not solve the problem.
It is precisely because Aurora has such a deep influence on Lumian, so, from a certain point of view, shaping Lumian is also tantamount to shaping Aurora, which is one of the ways to complete the character.
Of course, the various psychological problems brought about by the disaster in Kordu Village will also affect Lumian's choice and performance.
After finishing the second part, there are two things that puzzled me the most: one is the forced casting of the script. Mian didn’t think about covering his face at all when he was subduing the guards. Later, the details of covering his face were only covered after Jenna covered her face. I think I wrote it very clearly. In that kind of scene, it is impossible to directly write about Lumian's psychological changes, because that would lose the beauty of the description.
The second is why I care so much about mystical smelling salts. It can only deal with the influence of Sequence 7. When Suzanne failed to induce desire, I used two or three hundred words to write where the failure was. The failure was due to the interference of fate. My luck is getting worse, so I really don't want to watch it?
As for why "Fallen Mercury" just picked the purple flame that can burn off the branches of the shadow tree and break Susanna's immortal body, that's another story.
The way I deal with his psychology and emotions is not to perish in silence, but to explode in silence. Therefore, a large number of pages are missing Lumian's psychological description, and only silence is used instead.
One is that the repeated use of psychological descriptions and emotional outbursts will make the subsequent catharsis lose its power. The other is that in many cases, silence is more resonant and powerful.
After repeated silences and backlogs, it finally broke out completely, vented, and there was an arsonist who would scold a passing dog.
Here, it is different from the mysterious performance. The clown can be deep and introverted, and the Don River can flow quietly, but the hunter cannot, and the witch cannot. There must be an explicit publicity and a cry.
Summed up the writing methodology, with various keywords, it does not mean that each of them must be used, because some are universal and applicable to any occasion, while others are limited by the environment and character, and cannot be used universally. I am most afraid of cutting my feet to fit my shoes.
Among the people around me, I first hoped to build the Golden Rooster Hotel as a complete and real society, and hoped that every tenant there would have their own stories and corresponding experiences and encounters. The amount is too large, and it will conflict with the main body of the story. After all, this is a fantasy novel, not an urban novel. If the number of supporting roles for ordinary people exceeds a certain amount, it will be a disaster.
Therefore, I divided the tenants of the Golden Rooster Hotel into three categories, one is purely as a background and only exists in the conversations of Charlie and others to increase the thickness of the hotel, and the other is dust that appears in this part The characters in the movie include the Ruhr couple, the lunatic Flemish, etc., and there are other types that will have plots later, such as the intelligence dealer, such as the young man chasing the upper class and his mother, such as the mannequin who did not come back , so as to avoid arranging everyone's stories together, which would be too coincidental.
The other character I'm talking about from "Down and Out in Paris and London" is Jenna's mom, and in that book, there's a dishwashing girl in a hotel who's in her fifties and always wears wigs, eyeshadow, etc. Makeup, insisting that she was an opera actress while working hard every day, I think there must be a story behind such a person, which is very suitable for the family that the role of Jenna needs.
Among the descriptions of these people, I am most satisfied with the part of Ruhr and Michelle. The contrast between the city of joy and the cruel reality is what I want to express, and it is also the dust in the theme of the light chaser.
At first, I hoped to use the inevitable old age to get sick, gradually collapse, and die a little bit to highlight the structural social contradictions, highlighting the old no country, but after thinking about it, it is better to use it in secrets, and the main contradiction of fate is the external gods. The invasion of the evil gods is the various influences brought by the evil gods. In order to show the nature of the doomsday and the harm of the evil gods' believers, it is better to rely on this aspect, and it can better connect the plot.
The same is true for the death of Janna's mother. It is necessary to use the logic that can happen in reality, but also to add unnatural effects of haste and impulsiveness, so as to get closer to the theme. Therefore, what I hope is not to bring emotion or tears, Instead, it evokes sadness and anger.
There is a big problem dealt with here. For the sake of suspense, I put the possibility of being affected by extraordinary effects behind, so that many readers can’t connect the two together, so they will find it ridiculous. Now think about it, You can switch to the perspective of the councilor's office in advance and explain that there will be abnormal emotional fluctuations. Although this will lose a certain amount of suspense, it will be smoother emotionally.
Similarly, because of Lumian's psychological state, the second part will have two states of limitation and confusion intertwined. For the serialization, this means that there will be problems such as the lack of the main line and the inability to open the pattern, until it is directly pointed out that K Mr. Lumian joined the Savoy Party for the sake of the Jagged Cross and a bigger conspiracy. I felt that the problem in this aspect was solved and the story went smoothly.
Now that I think about it, I can use techniques to omit some steps and advance this to the middle of the second part, so that the subsequent lines will not appear sloppy. This is the biggest problem of this volume.
I’ve written a lot, so let’s end here.
What exactly is the Jagged Cross plotting, what else is underground in Trier, and the further presentation of the truth about the disaster in Kordu Village are all in the third part, "The Conspirator".
Well, as usual, I will take a three-and-a-half-day break from now on, and resume updating at 7:00 on Sunday night.
Also, because I have a child now, I have to take her with me in my free time, but after I started coding, it is very difficult to have time to go out with her on weekends, and writing the sequel is really difficult and exhausting, so I originally planned to write Those who only started to take one day off in the middle of the week can only move forward, starting from the third part, starting from next week, there will only be a chapter at 12:30 noon on Saturday and Sunday, please bear with me.
Finally, thank you for your support.
Finally, at the end, please ask for the next monthly pass~
Also, thanks to LIVY37 and Daily Rewards for rewarding Baiyinmeng again.
