Ah, I'm off to read this now, never mind to-read lists. I'm to interested. XD

school makes it so tough to do anything online. i understand. really, i shouldn't be writing so much right now, but the lure of inspiration is stronger than the call of homework.
have fun! i hope you enjoy it (the third chapter may be headed your way tonight, too, if all goes well).

I refuse to use that word today. Homework does not exist. Wooh! I just finished chapter 1, so I should finished chapter 2 by then. It is deserving of the interest you have been getting.

thanks so much! like i told dingo, everything here is a result of reading up on chinese names, traditions, locations, etc. i've read so many warriors fics set in forests that read like america or england that i wanted to shift the setting and tone to something less explored. once i saw pictures of the zhangjiajie forest, i knew where it had to be!

I know there was one that took place in Australia, but that was a few months back.

Seriously, you shouldn't be surprised by the hype. The new chapters are awesome! I like the inclusion of a cat Meilin has personal conflict with into the competition - very interesting.

mintedstar/fur🦇 - thanks so much! i'm pretty happy with just how quickly it's pouring out, tbqh. i never expected to write so much in less than 24 hours. and oooh, australia? do you happen to remember which fic it was? ~Sapphire~ - thank you!! and i'm glad you like yanmei's inclusion; conflict should be nothing if not personal, i believe. at least, for a good story, especially in first person.

Keep writing! If you have the motivation, don't stop. Plus, it means we get more chapters...Yeah. I can probably find it again. Give me a second.

I agree - personal conflict brings a whole lot of interesting elements into play. And please do keep writing, if you have the inspiration (:

Just finished reading chapters two and three! Absolutely amazing! It's really interesting to see the subtle elements of tension play out. The suspense is wonderfully built. I really think that this has the potential to become one of the best fics on the forums!

mintedstar/fur🦇 - i'll make some time to read it tonight! what a shame that it looks to be abandoned, though... ~Sapphire~ - personal conflict also generates flawed choices, of course. and i will! i love this story so much already! Dingoleap - oh my goodness, thank you so much! i don't know about it being one of the best, but i really appreciate your feedback and encouragement!

They re-do it every now and again, so I hope it will come back. From what I'd read, it was pretty good.

Indeed - many a good plan has been derailed when a character focuses on the wrong conflict... May I ask what your username means, btw? It's Greek, right?

mintedstar/fur🦇 - that's good to know! i'll probably read it soon. ~Sapphire~ - or wrong conflicts, plural, heaven forbid. and yes, it is ancient greek! it means "the clouds above" hence also the percy bysshe shelley excerpt in my signature.

If Dingoleap asked to be a fan, then I know this is worth a read! I got a paper to write, but after I will be back to read this. I have always been fascinated by Chinese culture, so i got reeled into this quick. Really unique and original fan-fic you have here Nepha. I hope the readers keep coming in to show you the support you deserve.

Hopefully. Also very busy. Mostly I'm working on a bunch of different projects and seeing what I can get finished.

multiple projects? that's very ambitious. just getting through one can be hard enough!

I'm a good multitasker. I like the challenge. (Then later I get to wonder if I'm crazy for doing the amount I do/try to do...)
