Hello everyone, this is very hard for me to do, but sadly I am ending O,Abaddon. The reason for this is because I am having a harder time focusing on the story. I had a entire story planned out in my head, but for some reason i went off course from the very beginning.In my head, it would have been a group of friends in the woods as Abaddon sends drones to scope out the area. The story you are reading is completely different from the one in my head and I don't know why I did it.
The future chapters would have a whole thing about the protagonist (named Zakari in my mind) become a Well Intentioned Extremist, getting a metal arm/parasite from Abaddon and using it powers to try to 'save' the world. Nations would have teamed together to face the threat, but it's extremely tense. It would have been between the US,Russia,Brazil,and China. Political movements and other countries would rise all over the world, against Abaddon, the Four Stars Alliance (as i would call them) and the fact that they were covering up Abaddon. One of these would have been an African country I didn't choose yet that would have later received a mech from Abaddon. On top of that, future arcs would have Abaddon creating monsters from animal DNA to attack Humanity. Even other alien races would have been introduced.
I would have split the POV to multiple main characters, just like Aston and Gaagii, like Miguel Dávalos, a serial killer from Colombia, Aleksandra Mieczkowska, a White Nationalist from Poland, Amritvani Bandejah, a sikh from India, Nguyễn Xuân Kiên, a fisher boy from Vietnam, and how they were "Chosen" by Abaddon to influence the world and gain powers. These characters would have a big impact on the world. Aston/Zakari would have gotten his arm and Gaagii would have get animal control powers
I am stressing myself out. I do not have a constant upload schedule, which I know has definitely ignored some people, along with grammar and me struggling to type the words. This isn't the first novel I made, but it is the only novel I have published.
If you are interested in making a web novel, don't do it like me. Wildbow (Creator of Worm,Ward,Twig,Pact, and Pale) who is a big influence on me had said to keep a backlog of chapters so you can get a feel of what you are doing. Why didn't i heed his advise, because im stupid,
So, for these reasons I am ending it.
My biggest wish and hope is that you guys take what this and O,Abaddon, what little of it there is and make something out of it. Even if you change some things here and there, that would mean the world to me.
Sincerely, Z_Willows/Marmaduke Salvage
