It had been months when I finally revealed that the eX Dream/2018 won't. be a running lone-series, that there will be other series that will be joining it as well. You might have this question in your mind if I thought of this ever since I started writing the eX Dream/2018 series when I was on grade five.
The answer is a BIG NO.
I never really thought that: first, I'll be able to accomplish one book of it and even create life on my characters; and lastly, I never thought that I'll have fond with writing one as well. That's why writing or finishing the eX Dream/2018 series, especially the first book of the series is indeed and really an accident.
I'm not joking.
So how did this chronicles come with everything?
Simple, I fall in love with my own characters that I don't want to lose them or even forget about them. I don't want any other character that I'll be creating on the future to out win them. Especially, 'Aaron' (see: 'Aaron's character creation), since he is my first main hero, I want him to be the almost perfect guy in my mind and life. Ow...
To begin, actually, 'Rachel' Alrish and 'Aaron' Braisel were meant to exist in a different series that I am reviving as well but with different characters and plot. So, I'm just reviving the series' name that's all. Before, it was about word traveling to gather something. (More like CLAMP's Tsubasa Chronicle). Anyway, back to the topic, that's true. And inspirations come again and I finally realize that these two weren't meant on it. Their names suggested power and vulnerability at the same time, two things that that previous series with that plot won't be able to give them justice. That's when, eX Dream/2018 was finally born.
Based on the eX Dream/2018 series, 'Rachel' and 'Aaron's character were perfectly linked with the plot. And I don't regret that I need to lose my characters for the dumped series. In the eX Dream/2018 series, I finally see and was able to comprehend more and greatly that their names and characters were given pride as well attached, stronger and more stabilize that if anyone read the series, two names will forever remain: 'Aaron' and 'Rachel', and vice versa. That's the impact that I was able to create on the first series, making my characters memorable as well in my future readers.
With the first series, the so-called The Izabran Chronicles was brought up when a lot of new terms existed while I was writing book 4 that was finally influence by a lot of different books. From Divergent, The Hunger Games, Fallen, The Immortals, Trylle, Halo, Elixir, The Infernal Devices, and to Legend and Defiance; I can guarantee that books changed and improves my writings, the expectations of how the characters are doing reach the heights of comparison - something that I very well made to be inspired alone and not trying to move it on the same flow. I noticed it coming with the end of book 1 moving to something like Divergent that when I'm revising, things were changed to a CAT process required for a Philippine curriculum. Thank God that I managed to move the events on a different flow as well.
A quoting how this chronicle was build up in a shorter way:
"It is actually about the way that my characters automatically influence me as well that gives me the idea to continue loving and treasuring them as if they were real. They were the companions I have all the way that I really don't want to lose at all no matter what happens. They were true enough that I know I can survive when it comes to the real world. Because I don't want to forget them entirely once other books overload my mind with new thoughts, I want them to be the ones that had always been with me since the start. That's when the single eX Dream/2018 series becomes the now The Izabran Chronicles."
