Hi everyone!(also you can find the chapter that is supposed to be here below the update)
First of all, thank you so much for the all the heartwarming comments. I can't even begin to tell you how much they've helped.
I'm doing better, but I'm still not at the stage where I can come back to WDS full time. Instead, I've found an alternative!
I've hired a ghostwriter, and together, we have started creating 'Rule or Die'. It is a story about a cold criminal who is ripped away from his life, dropped into a new world and ordered to Rule or Die.
Here's the blurb:
"Rule or Die," said the Voice, and Luke opened his eyes in a new world.
At the age of 12, he was a beggar. By the time he turned 15, he ruled the streets. At 18, he took control of his first gang.
Now he is 24, and he all but rules a state in the U.S, while on the verge of devouring more.
Yet on his 25th birthday, the Voice chose him, and he was thrust into the world of Bloodmagic in the body of a common soldier.
He is given a simple order: either take command of his city, or die and be graced with endless torture.
His lust for power is unrivaled. His greed is legendary. His selfishness is the stuff of whispered stories. He seems like the perfect man for the job…but in a bloodstained world that has been on the brink of destruction for decades, is he capable enough to succeed?
All he wants is to get back to the life he worked so hard for and the only people he cares about: his family.
Will the journey change his belief and his principles, or reinforce them? Will he be crushed, or rise? Will he rule…or die?
I'm plotting the entire story and editing it. The ghostwriter is even a tad bit better than me at writing, so the chapters will feel much more polished. This is an adult story. Adult themes(violence, sex, etc.) will be prominently displayed from the beginning. I've grown as a writer since starting WDS, and honestly, if I were starting it now, this is the way I would have chosen to write it.
Now, then, onto what I was hinting at in the title. Is it set in the same universe as WDS? Does the entity who gave him the order have any relation with the system, and Daneel's transmigration? Are people like Daneel and our MC in Rule or Die being dropped into these worlds for a singular motive? If so, what is it? Read the book(which is now live on Webnovel and Royalroad) and find out!
Hint: I wouldn't be asking all these questions if there wasn't a reason behind asking them...
Updates will be 1/day, more or less. We are still adjusting our schedules, but the ghostwriter is an assiduous worker, so I expect him to crank out chappies regularly and quickly. I'm taking a lot of time to edit them and make sure they're up to the mark, so you can be assured that this will be one of the best works from the KillerHemboy stable.
Comment if you have any queries. Thank you again for everything. Hopefully, I'll catch you all in the comment section of the new book!
P.S: Here's the link. Or you can just search for the book.
