Beyond Your Legacy. My first ever attempt at a real novel. Failed miserably but it’s better that way.

(The first names are written first instead of l/n f/n because lazy)
Warning! It’s long…
Beyond Your Legacy was a story about Naso Hashimoto, princess of Riari and 3rd in line of the throne. She was never allowed outside for some odd reason and was never told why. One day she snags a ride on a pegasus and escapes in order to explore and find out why. During this short period of time she has almost 10 near death experiences.
She runs into a group of people, the leader of it being a boy named Kaori Jinsei and his “friend” Shiori Kyo. They bring her back to a palace where the Queen of Shizaki is. Turns out Kaori is a prince and that Naso is actually a princess of Shizaki and not Riari! Shocker. After making this discovery She decides to stay and reconnect with her family before choosing to go back. Her previous family finds her and assume that she was kidnapped by Shizaki. They yell to Naso about how Shizaki people were a bunch of messed up dogs and the Shizaki people talk about how they were being suppressed by Riari. Stuff happens and she ends up going back to Riari with her second family. Kaori, being furious, declares war on Riari, with it being approved by his mother who had became ill out of nowhere.

And I didn’t get much farther. There was a lot of plot to it but I gave you the general gist of Act 1.

Why it never came to be or why it wasn't finished?

It was never finished because I got burned out as my work was becoming boring as said by a friend of mines and I kept on getting new plot ideas that I didn’t have the time to add in as it would require me to rewrite the start.

Concept art

I have a lot of it but they’re just drawings of the characters and I’m too lazy to find them all. So nothing to post.

If you rebooted it, what would you change about it?

Not an if question. It has to be rebooted as it’s an important period in my world’s history. I’ll probably cut a lot of characters that was in it and do some altering. I implemented guilds into that world so they’re important, plus a lot of countries will be in there too as they were implemented too. Naso will have some changes, Kaori’s name will be changed. Kaori and Shiori will be secretly together because logic. And much more changes to the plot.

Sorry for the long read. This was a really important story to me. I remember reading what I got done of the story recently and realized the writing wasn’t bad. I could’ve easily continued writing it but I guess it was for the best that I didn’t continue it.
