1.Is there a piece of lost history that exist in Wodeland that many beings are trying to combine the pieces and unlock the truth?

lol, that’s a very specific question XD Nope. Not that I know of.

@anon39043209

2.Are there still ancient ruins that exist in Wodeland?

YES and currently Bethany and friends are at the Fogforn Ruins which used to belong to a family of rats loyal to the royal rats. There’s even an old statue of the Mosspetal queen rat in the ruins.

@anon39043209

3.Who is the creator deity or various deities of the Wodeland world?

They don’t have that kind of belief. They just believe that when Wodeland came to be, so became the rats. And even in my lore outside of their knowledge, there are no deities.

@anon39043209

4.What would happen if magick stopped existing in Wodeland? Would the world greatly suffer or will it do fine enough?

It would just be Earth XD Talking animals would no longer talk. Avians won’t be able to fly, but it’s not like they can’t learn to be human. Magick isn’t essential to everyday life. It’s like a nice addition. Also, the rats won’t be able to turn into humans. Bethany might not like it, but I’m sure she can adapt.

@anon39043209

5.Are there locations in Wodeland that aren’t meant to be avoided at all cost? Like some terrifying thing from a horrible nightmare?

There is a lot of superstition regarding the Fogforn Ruins. The Rat King previously ransacked the place. Many Avians and humans fear that place, believing it to be cursed, haunted, a place where you go and never return, and when they have to go there, a lot of the soldiers actually protest against their princes which is something they wouldn’t normally do.

Do the bodies rot? How are those walls maintained?

You know what? They probably do That’s why the Rat King has to keep sucking souls. That’s probably how everything is maintained. And the soul sucking makes it more powerful.

@48lexR

lmao no they just find a baby one day on the road and take it home to their pasture on a hill.

Okay, now that’s definitely reminding me of Hercules

@48lexR

Stilkilaaf is born by the Moon Goddess but raised by the Sun Goddess.

Why doesn’t the Moon Goddess raise Stilkilaaf herself? (after you answer this question, I’m moving all questions to my Elgana thread, so hop on over there)

@48lexR

that she finds some way to create a child by using air molecules or something lol.

You could do what happens in a lot of mythology. Take a leg or arm from a lover, and…tadaa! A child. Mix and mash some guts… tadaaaa! Child. Cut off his finger to create a son. Throw an enemy corpse into the ocean and let the blood seep into the water…daughters are born!

Yeah fair.

What’s been your favorite part of writing the story? Your least favorite part?

Also fair–multiple threads is difficult to manage lol

Well the Moon Goddess gets chased off a second time by the Sun Goddess so

True–I’ll probably wind up doing something like that but haven’t fleshed it out because I’m too busy focusing on the weird islanders who have connections directly to the Sun Goddess.

grab things for notes if you need them guys

[anon39043209]

Are you going to make another AMA thread or not now?!

Just curious.

[TheTigerWriter]

I already have two. So no.

[anon39043209]

Ah, I see.

I hate to be an annoying pest, but I’ve made another AMA thread for Jorildyn and the story she comes from.

So, you can check it out if you want to.
I love your thought-provoking questions.

[TheTigerWriter]

I’m busy the next few days, so I can’t come up with questions, but can answer them Easier to answer than create right now.

So, you’ve taken all you need from here? Going to leave this thread up for a week and then I’ll have them close it.

[anon39043209]

Ah, alright, well it will be around.

Then again I might another Red Reign AMA thread, but that won’t be till I am done with book 1.

Fingers crossed.
