Mostly Writing?

Just another crossover fanfic author.

Just in case anyone actually reads this blog for information about my stories, I can explain. There’s a reason for the prolonged absence of writing.

Largely imposter syndrome, but also because I realized I have to heavily revise the Mo Dao Zu Shi x Dragon Age Origins story I’ve been working on since 2021 (aka: Lán Wàngjī is Sick of Darkspawn). Thought it was just the combat to fit better with LWJ’s style and not Shen Qingqui or Hua Cheng, but the writing style is so uuuuugh at times, too.

Luckily, I’m almost halfway done. 4/12.5 chapters, baybeeeee. Just finished Battle of Ostagar, which was the chapter I was the most worried about due to combat, but only needed half the actual revision of any of the others.

Really glad people at least like An Uncountable Blessing, though.

The sadness that comes from having a 43,000~46,000 word story that needs to have all action scenes fixed/revised because of a mistake….

I just realized how little I’ve used this blog and such…

On the plus side procrastinating the revision is a great reason to work on a new fic!

Forgot to share on here, but excuse me as I do a happy dance because I finally made an actual update; there's actually a chapter 5!

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Only four mages were required to look into the Fade and find spirits to question. Therefore, Lán Wàngjī was left to raise the tents and answer questions. He was not given much time to utilize the Song of Inquiry, especially once the chantry heard of the mages’ arrival. It seemed like every few minutes the sisters would send a recruit to ask Lán Wàngjī some question or another.

He seemed to be just another templar, but with a difficult personality akin to Wèi Yīng.

It was already impossible to complete his daily Inquiry with the templars as overseers —they took exception to a mage utilizing a ritual without strict instructions—, but now he had to add contradictory orders to the mix.

One minute he would be hammering stakes into the ground for tents, and then he would hear: “Mage, the Revered Mother wishes to see you.”

He only just exited conferencing with the chantry’s leader when the recruit was back at his side with another request: “The Gray Wardens require your expertise.”

He didn’t even have experience to share in this world. He was not an expert in the magical arts, no matter what the templars thought of his cultivation skills. His “expertise” was limited to strategizing based on limited magical research, knowledge of his own skills, and spars with templars.

Nonetheless, Lán Wàngjī agreed to the meeting.

And immediately afterward—

“The Revered Mother requests your presence.”
