Daybreak Update and Frozen Floweret Pre-release

Added 2023-03-08 22:23:04 +0000 UTC

Hello everyone,

As Daybreak is currently in the middle of v4, I'm taking a slight break to do editing on some older chapters, as well as reviewing the consistency of what's I've written for v4 content. Most changes are quite minor so I'm not going to bother posting much on it. I also need to do some planning for the second half of v4 going forward, as Kaede is about to set off on a journey without Pascal for the first time.

In the meantime, I'd like to share something else I've been working on - a short fiction that's directly related to Daybreak. Older readers of my content will know that I once had a writing project called The Flowers in Boreal Twilight. It was the first writing project I had after my disappointments with the old Daybreak v3, but was eventually cancelled due to some personal drama that hurt me greatly. However, as a number of readers expressed that they did like what I had written, I decided to bring back the long prologue of that story in a 'web-novella' of sorts, and under a new name.

Here's the pre-release for the first out of four chapters of Frozen Floweret. https://docs.google.com/document/d/15S31HnwpvTMuFQgTJa8RRbEgqQOGamSqZIZbfbaZXdY/edit#

This story follows that of Lidiya Ilyinichna Lisitsyna, a Samaran girl who later became a renowned hero of the Great Northern War - the war that gave birth to the Grand Republic of Samara. She was mentioned in v2ch6 of Daybreak when Kaede saw her in a painting, as well as multiple times in Eve of Rebirth. I also have plans for v5 when Kaede will meet her in person. The story should give the reader more insights into the Samarans as a whole.

Best regards,
