Character | Age | Location | Time Of DayHmm I suggest organizing them and probably put them on a google doc. Like what idea's you want to keep and get rid of those you don't. THe ones you're not for sure on I say keep them on the notepad.

I mean, I already have a doc for notes that's all nice and organized (sections for quotes, scenes, plots, etc). I've unloaded a few times in the past. The problem is that I haven't done it in awhile and it wasn't until now that I realized just how many notes I gotta go through and sort T_T

•♕• yeah, well its not supposed to be super organized lexicon or anything. like literally its what you said, an all-over-the-place collection of thoughts. im planning on making a separate document when i have more things figured out. also when the docs table of contents tool works what parts did you like? dislike? beyond the organization/grammar/typos (trust me i know about those lol) •♔• I think you need to have more of an explanation of what the Vele is and the 8 original. As well, how was the evil 1 able to create beings? Also the eros and other species you had, go into more detail on what they were, what they looked like and how they worked. Perhaps go more in depth of the role of the royal family? A question that pops up is; what is the royal family needed for? It seems the people are self governing from the Vele/energy, perhaps they are just a symbolism or bigger? I really liked that you brought in your own idea for genders, language and hair styles. I really thought the hair styles representing parts of a persons life and heritage were very unique. Learning about the different hair styles and braids was probably my favorite (Though I've never spoke with anyone about world building before) Edit: There's also a lot of confusion when you talk about Vele-born things. I think I understood what you were trying to get at, but you called humans and elves vele-born while I think you were trying to call other creatures non vele-born. But you had ended up calling them both vele-born when it seemed you were trying to differentiate between the two. •♕• humans + elves are both vele-born, anything else beyond that is vale-born, because everything other than the first two races was createed by the 8 vale. Vele is essentially the "god" of the world, and is less of a corperal being and more like..... a collective consciousness of all the species and things of the world? they began similar tot he big bang, like how everything was just "created" all of a sudden. and so, Vele has less of a physical hand in the control of the world. the Vale were the first 8 elves created from the intial "creation", and basically created everything besides the humans and elves themselves. This is why magic using "vele energy" (god i need a better name for that) can only be derived from vale-born things (so anything other than elves +humans) the eros and kelwar are just races of elves, with the eros population being more secluded/smaller than the kelwar because of their dependence on the energy of Ophera (the large forest where they live.) since ophera contains larger amounts of vele energy than anywhere else, it is more common to see unusual hair colors/eye colors (unusual as like.... pure white hair/greener skin/more vibrant eyes, nothing neon or anything haha). also, since they live in more northern reigons/live in a shady forest, they have paler skin the the kelwar elves or the people of the southern reaches. (think more European traits) the kelwar would be... more "mundane" than the eros, because over the years they have grown less dependent on vele energy, so they are more like humans than the eros. they have more africian/middle-eastern traits, if we compared them to earth. they also have more of a political and trading presence in cibera/iquas because they dont seclude themselves and are less xenophobic than the eros lol. the royal family exists as a religious leader as well as a governing force. they remain in power as the descendants of one of the first vale (or so they say). the kelwar family is more entertwined with the common kelwar religion than the eros, the eros family is more a war figurehead/leader and are separate from the priests/devotees/velics. the seperation betweent he two races arose during the first war of sorts between Janu and the other vale, the royal families derived from those elves who sided with janu (generally the eros) and the rest of the vale (generally the kelwar). there are similar royal systems in the southern and northern reaches, with families or rulers making desicions for their individual towns/territories, with two larger governments made up of the latter in control of either the southern or northern reaches, respectively. these are seperate from the kelwar and eros governments. also, janu could create things because he was one of the vale before turning and wanting to create his own "world". •♔•

That helped a lot. I also just noticed you differentiated Vale-born and Vele-born, I honestly did not notice the difference before. I kind of feel they are a little too close but that's up to interpretation and yourself.

Like, I wouldn't care too much if I broke my phone, since most of my photos are either 1) On my computer too, 2) Online too, or 3) Not worth it, so I wouldn't miss much, except for my notes. Those would be a huge loss because I don't have them anywhere else cause they're a huge mess. And I drop my phone a lot (I'm clumsy like that) so it's only a matter of time... Darn phones.
