![]() ![]() And so what world would they build? And I started to get nervous again because I was still finding that there were problems. ![]() This isn't a world built by Shannon, this isn't Shannon-topia, this is the last cities. And I really spent a lot of time thinking okay, so this is a world that's built by these creatures. And that was when I started really building the world. And I need to kind of figure those questions out. It just, wasn't satisfying at all and it but it got me to realize that that's what the story was I just kept thinking about what is going to happen to this girl now that she knows she's enough? What does she have to leave? Does she have to go live in the Lost Cities? And why was she hidden away? And that's when I realized there's a story there. But I feel like that's an even worse cliffhanger than what I do in the series. You know, the dramatic ending of that story was just him basically saying, hey, so you're an elf, not the greatest ending, I mean, I know I'm known for my cliffhangers. I don't really know why she just sort of popped in somehow I decided that that story was going to be about Fitz, meeting a girl and realizing that she was like him and she was an elf and him having to tell her that and in proof that maybe short stories aren't always my best form. And so I was kind of just trying to, you know, unstuck that story by writing from one of the side characters pov's, and out came Sophie into that story. Yeah, I have a short story I had created Fitz for a different book that I was working on and created the elves just very loosely for a different book that I was working on. And I had from you know, starting a short story that was actually with Fitzes character, right? I knew that. It really came from all different places, it was not one of those instances of just you know, I sort of woke up and went I know this entire story in this entire world it kind of happened very gradually, I knew that I wanted to write about elves.
