I’ve finished writing this story and decided to move it to Kindle Unlimited, which requires me to remove it from sites like Royal Road. Now then, I’m not going to ask you to buy it. If you’re here, there’s a reason you’re here. But, as I said, the novel isn’t available on Royal Road anymore.
If you still want to keep reading, just message me. No need for a ‘good morning’ or fancy words—I have severe anxiety, and English isn’t my first language. I can write a book, but I cannot hold English chit-chat. Or French chit-chat, in fact. Or any type of chit-chat. Just say you’re here for the book. Don’t forget to give me your email, and I’ll send it to you.
I truly apologize for this, but as I’m sure you’ve noticed, this novel has an inexistent fandom. (By the way—special thanks to a certain serial commenter. Seeing you comment on every chapter was what kept me writing.) But I can’t afford for this story not to pay my bills when I’ve spent so much time, money, and energy on it.
As an author, I wish I didn’t have to do this to you. But as a poor person, I cannot have mercy.
Forgive me. (Message me.) Dear reader.
On the other hand, if you still wish to buy my books—let’s say, to support me—here’s the link for them:

Afterword
This is it, people. It's the end.
Well, after that epilogue, I guess those who read SOUL HARVEST know what that means. Yep, I'm going back to writing the main story. I've put that poor little story on hiatus for too long.
I'm going to tweak the system math (the XP thresholds are all over the place, also I think I made Omega a little too young/strong to be the wandering cleric that he is, so I'll have to fix these in the first book). It shouldn't take all that long, so I give it about a month before I can drop my next chapter.
Now, I might say that this is the end, but we all know it's not. There are still so many enemies of the goddess that have yet to be smote: the Masiach (not really an enemy of the goddess, more of a personal beef for the Dungeon Masters—we know he has at least one authority), the Seraphims (they have at least two authorities in their possession), and the Iron Overlord (an authority, nukes, a mechanical construct army, two elven monarch allies—Arcane and Artistic ancestral trees—and several Dwarven Lords working for them). Yep, that's still a lot of enemies to deal with, but don't worry, they will be dealt with (on screen). However, it won't be in this series, because "Arianna" as a series ends here. Those arcs are for SOUL HARVEST to tell, most likely as the content of Book 4 and Book 5 (SOUL HARVEST is currently in the middle of Book 2).
To give you a vague image of how I imagine the story, it'll be like this:
By the book (not in chronological order/not including Arianna):
-
Soul Harvest Book 1: Dungeon Masters (Before the Eras)
-
Soul Harvest Book 2: Sigma and Omega (Kingless Era) ???? We are here
-
Soul Harvest Book 3: Aria and Ian (Late Era of Kings/Kingless Era)
-
Soul Harvest Book 4: Disciple of the Masiach (Era of Kings)
-
Soul Harvest Book 5: The Great Monarch War (Era of Kings)
-
Soul Harvest Book 6: ??? (Kingless Era)
Anything beyond this point is still vague for me.
Now, chronologically, and including the Arianna series, it looks like this:
-
Soul Harvest Book 1: Dungeon Masters (Before the Eras) [Main POV: Dungeon Masters]
-
Arianna Book 1: Hexcaster (One and Only Eras) [Main POV: Dungeon Master 08/Arianna]
-
Arianna Book 2: Era of Kings (Late One and Only Era/Era of Kings) [Main POV: Dungeon Master 08/Arianna]
-
Soul Harvest Book 4: Disciple of the Masiach (Era of Kings) [Main POV: Dungeon Master 07 & Dungeon Master 11 & Dungeon Master 08 (Theta)]
-
Soul Harvest Book 5: The Great Monarch War (Era of Kings) [Main POV: Dungeon Master 07 & Dungeon Master 11 & Dungeon Master 01]
-
Soul Harvest Book 3: Aria and Ian (Late Era of Kings/Kingless Era) [Main POV: Dungeon Master 18 & Dungeon Master 20 & Sigma & Omega]
-
Soul Harvest Book 2: Sigma and Omega (Kingless Era) [Main POV: Sigma & Omega]
-
Soul Harvest Book 6: ??? (Kingless Era)
Needless to say, we still have a long journey ahead before we get to the chronological continuation of this book. I can't really promise anything except one thing: Soul Harvest Book 4: Disciple of the Masiach (Era of Kings) and Soul Harvest Book 5: The Great Monarch War (Era of Kings) will be worth the wait—for several reasons. Expect several big fights, the return of some of our favorite Dungeon Masters, and the opportunity to see these Dungeon Masters and the "villains" (from our DMs' perspective) in action. And I can assure you, it'll be fun.
Anyway, that's all for me.
