The second Great War
Date: 2014-07-25 05:30 am (UTC)I am delighted to hear about Blade (the sooner the better) and am hopping I will enjoy The House of Four Winds.
But to come to the point(much in the fashion of the elves, though brief to the point of rudeness I am sure), my question is about any possible plans for a prequel concerning the second Great War?
(Or rather "It would please me greatly to know, of your courtesy, if there might possibly be plans for book concerning the the second Great War, when humans took the field alongside Elven kind and Their power was broken) -Sorry I have been dying to do that for a long time.
There is a lot of mention, during The Obsidian Trilogy, to the war and what happened, just enough to keep me up at night thinking.
Also, and possibly this will be revealed in the Dragon Prophecy, series, but Shalkan? Everyone makes a fuss over Kellen being Shalkan's rider, but we never find out why being Shalkan's rider is so different from riding Gesade or any other unicorn. Obviously, Shalkan had been conserving his power by not lending his power to any other workings but....perhaps I am over thinking things, but I would love to know more of Shalkan's story before he melt Kellen, and Idalia and Jermayan's stories. And what happens to Kellen after the war? Does he win a flower war or visit the Selken homeland or marry Vestakia, do they have children? I'm sure that Kellen remained in elven lands in his own home near the House of sword and shield. And Cilarnen, oh a thousand questions I could ask. Still, I wonder, especially about the Great War.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

I hope someday to write the story that immediately follows the Obsidian Trilogy, but I can tell you a little right now. Kellen and Vestakia marry, and for a while they go traveling. Kellen has always wanted to visit the Selken Isle, so they do (and have quite an adventure!) When they return home, they settle at the western edge of the Elvenlands. Occasionally they visit Armethalieh, and some of their children eventually settle there.
As for Cilarnen, while the history of Tiercel and Harrier's time refers to him as "First Magistrate Cilarnen", as the Arch-Mage of the City, he's got his work cut out for him getting the people to accept his reforms, and discovers that the truth is rarely plain and never ever simple.
I think I will be able to answer at least a few of your questions about Shalkan in Blade of Empire, interestingly enough. Of course, that may simply raise even more.

Date: 2014-08-26 06:06 pm (UTC)While I am asking, I noticed that in the Obsidian Trilogy audiobooks, the pronunciation Vieliessar Farcarinon is different than in the audio version of Crown of Vengeance. Was that on purpose? And what is the correct pronunciation? Also, I think the Obsidian Trilogy would make an amazing trilogy of movies.
I am very excited that I can look forward to finding out about the Second Endarkened War and the events of Vel-al- Amion! It sounds like it will live up to my expectations a thousand times over.
While I believe that it would be interesting to read more about Kellen and Cilarnen's future lives, you have satisfied my curiosity. I am a believer in that, if the story is over, it is over, and there is no point in trying to continue to suck the life out of an ending. We, the readers, have to accept these facts and use our imaginations to find our own endings, lest we be disappointed with the truth.
I am sure that Blade of Empire will raise more questions but I look forward to having more questions to ask.
Thank you so much,
