Fic Update: "Sleep of the Just" Prologue
Oct. 28th, 2009 08:23 pm Well, I went and did it. I've branched outside the Archanea ghetto and put out the first part of my first piece of FE8 fiction. "Sleep of the Just" is post-game, and hence post-war, political intrigue-type stuff featuring the one and only Innes. Expect a deeply negative portrayal of Ephraim and a look at all the ills of reconstruction. And some Innes/Vanessa.
The fic is here. Many thanks to Writer Awakened for being my beta! I needs me a beta because FE8 has a vastly more lengthy script than I'm used to. It also has actual fans.
ETA: Despite the number of people on ffnet who claim they want FE8 'fic, I can count the number of people who checked out the Prologue on my fingers. I added a disclaimer to the summary specifying that the story is not a romance and that the pairings involved are canon, a polite way of stating the 'fic is a no-yaoi zone, in case the threat of yaoi is scaring people off. In the meantime, people are still reading what they always read-- "The End of Love" and "The Time Remaining."
