End of the book, and a day off
Hello everyone, this is your loyal author friend, Beichuan Nanhai.
Ah... I feel like this beginning looks so familiar.
The first volume of "Poems of Food and Feast" ended up with 350,000 words, and it is expected to have seven volumes, about three million words.
In general, since this is my first time writing a fantasy theme, there are certain flaws, but at least I have expressed what I wanted to express.
As the book ends, "Whoever ignites lightning will drift like a cloud for a long time."
This volume actually tells the story of Yeats's journey from being homeless to having a place to settle down.
But settling down is just the beginning. Yeats' next step should be to "ignite the lightning", to achieve great things, and to be drawn into a bigger vortex.
Replay this volume.
The main plot is to survive the cold wave, with elements of food, pets, farming, and poetry added, and it revolves around Yeats's PY transactions with various gods.
This is also the origin of the title of this book, Food Feast, offering delicious food to the gods; Poetry, a fantasy story of heroes and epic myths.
Some parts of the first volume were written hastily, such as the part about the beast tide. The experience Beichuan learned from it is to be patient.
For online literary works that are often three or four million words long, each opening of a book is like a marathon. Since you’re already here, you just have to keep running.
In terms of characters, the heroine's emotional drama is indeed a weak point, but the troll Ogg and Fokase are characters that Kitagawa is relatively satisfied with.
At present, the novel is still in the stage where the world view has not yet been fully unfolded.
In the framework envisioned by Kitagawa, it is a story about the conflict between polytheism and monotheism.
The apostle introduced at the end of the volume is also considered a classic villain in Western fantasy novels.
Later there will be the underworld, the kingdom of fog, the kingdom of elves, the kingdom of giants... Nine worlds derived from Norse mythology, and the human world "Midgard" among them is the Midgard continent in the story.
Regarding the power system... Actually, this isn't a serious upgrade article.
As the introduction states, Yeats possesses a top-notch talent for cooking, which acts like a magic potion in the text.
Just think of it as "others level up by killing monsters, I level up by eating, eating, eating, eating, and PY." (Fog) Off topic.
Kitagawa actually likes the image of "flame" very much.
For example, in Norse mythology, the fire giant Surtur burned the world with a flaming sword during Ragnarok, and then a new world was born from the ashes.
For Beichuan, this is full of heroic beauty, a kind of beauty that lives towards death.
But everyone should be able to see that the tone of this book is relaxed, which is also Beichuan's consistent writing style.
Kitagawa is learning how to stay relaxed while putting Yeats in a difficult situation - an animal without a natural enemy is like a stagnant pool, and a protagonist without conflict will become gloomy.
The victory will be sweet only when the protagonist, with blood all over his face, returns home after defeating a powerful enemy, bends over the refrigerator, takes out a can of Coke and opens it with a 'squeak'... That's probably how it feels.
In short.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
The next volume is titled "Dance! Dance! Dance!"
After the wandering of winter, the dance of the witches in spring in May comes.
