Hi, I just had to tell you, I’m really loving Seekers of Soul. It’s got to be my favorite ongoing PMD story right now! I hope at some point to do some fanart if the god of art block will release me lmao
I was wondering- and maybe the reason was given already and I just can’t remember (my memory is not great)- why did you choose to name the Crobat character Asra, but also call a prominent location in the story Asra? Giving two things the same name feels like a very deliberate choice. In the latest chapter, I think Asra’s mate mentions that he grew up nearby, so I assume he was named after the town, but I’m just curious about how significant the name is, and if we may learn more about it later. He did end up changing his name to Vesper to help hide his identity, but I like to think that- if the whole being dead thing is real and not a coverup, and everything the Swoobat said was genuine- the name change may also have been because he felt he was no longer worthy to share/represent the name of the town he came from. Because he was ashamed of the things he had done. Just a thought I had ^^
Anyway keep up the great work, I look forward to the next update!
Aw, thank you!!! :D I would love to see some Seekers art if the art block releases you, haha!
And since I already admitted to this in an earlier ask...the Asra thing was initially a total accident. 😂 I just forgot that I'd already named the crobat outlaw Asra while I was naming the town.
But! Since someone else brought the whole thing to my attention in time, I gave a little hint in the last chapter to try for a decent in-universe reason. Which is basically the inverse of what you said above! His real name from birth was Vesper, but he grew up near Asra and took the town's name as his alias while he was with Team Zenith. He returned to using his actual name, Vesper, when he settled down with his mate! He wanted to try distancing himself from his time as an outlaw as much as possible.
