The Dragon Realms have fallen into ruin. But not all is lost.

When Spyro realizes he's not a dragonfly, he finds himself on a journey to find his home. But his home is nothing like he expected; war-torn and ancient, he must face enemies both external and internal if he is to survive.

Can Spyro face his destiny and the mysterious black dragon who is hunting his newfound family? Or will he be destroyed as the last of the dragons?

Chapter 8 is finally here! And it comes with a side of meta as I discuss how I integrated the game mechanic of experience points into a novelization, which really probably took longer than it should have. This chapter was fun to write, so I hope y'all enjoy!

Okay.. so suppose you’re a fanfiction writer….

And I’m a fan of your stories…

would it be alright to bribe you with a fanart that i made,

so I can read the next chapter? 

:) just asking…. but srsly tho… can you bribe a fanfiction writer with fanart of their stories?

[goficyourself]

Yessssss bribe ussssssss

[writing-in-the-grave]

Someone once gave me fan art of a story I finished years ago and I immediately wrote more, almost exclusively for them.

So yes.

[labelleizzy]

Hell yeah bribe us

[northstarfan]

Anyone who’s getting ideas - yes, I am extremely susceptible to bribes! XD

[drtanner]

Remember, folks: You can ALWAYS bribe a writer to write more by making fanart of their work! ☝️

okay! Finished Chapter 9! I have not r written in literally months so like. It kinda sucks? Or maybe I'm being hard on myself, idk.

It's about 3k words long and is a little silly I think but I think fits well in the humor of the story so far. I'll def have my partner read it over later as they're a great sounding board for these things.

I'll try and edit Chapter 8 when I wake up and get it posted!

[lanxborealiss]

Oh. I haven't posted since Feb.

...Oops!

I'm about halfway thru this chapter, the next chapter is completed just not edited I don't think

[nyanakin]

no because this is genuinely what i sound like and nobody outside of sw prequels fandom believes me 😖

Sorry for the month+ wait! A future chapter had me stuck for a while and I do like to be ahead on these. I know this one is a bit shorter, hopefully the next chapter won't take so long to get posted.

There were a few dialogue changes here in comparison to the games, but nothing too crazy. Just changes to better fit the tone and slight changes to the story. Honestly, the chapters getting to the temple turned out a lot longer than I expected and are looking to be about 3-4 chapters rather than the original 2ish.

I need tiktokers to understand that ao3 has been home for the freaks (affectionate) ever since the day it was created. the entire site was created because “dark and fucked up fics” were banned and removed from other platforms, so us freaks came together and created a site for other freaks — a site where nothing is censored, a site with no algorithm, no capitalism, no ads, and again, absolutely no censorship.

this has been our house for decades. you newbies don’t come into our house and tell us how to arrange our furniture. either be nice and respect our house, or leave and build your own house elsewhere.

anything can be a slow burn if it takes you forever to upload new chapters

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

[lanxborealiss]

okay okay I got chapter 8 mostly written. I need to go in and add some missing scenes that are. Hm. Not originally planned whatsoever!

It happens!

Not sure when I'll be able to get them written as I need to start doing a better outline for the story besides my list of headcanons, writing out my ass, and memorization of the games (oops)

Also I wanna eventually put together a "cover" of the story. Kinda debating on whether I wanna just do photo manipulation of the game cover or if I want to actually draw something different. Not sure.

Happy 2026! Sorry it's been so long, the holidays are always busy for me. But here we are, and we have finally met Ignitus! I've been quite excited to write for him, so I hope I do him justice.
