Greetings Star Travellers!

You did it! You unlocked the next stretch goal! All backers will now be credited in a special thank you page in Star Awakened. (You will have the option to choose what I use as far as names go in the survey post campaign)

You have travelled down the stretch goal path, and are close to unlocking the next one! A digital art package featuring 4 NSFW art illustrations & 4 SFW illustrations. These will be two separate PDF's as I know not everyone will want the NSFW versions.

I'll be honest, I get a certain sense of satisfaction watching the little ship travel down the map of the Great Sea ^_^ And I am excited to see how far we can travel in the final 10 days!

You can help us sail faster by sharing the campaign with friends and family! In fact, I have made these nifty little backer badges just for my backers! You can find the .png files in the backer section below!

Star Awakened Lore:

One of the things you will find in this series is a world rich with lore and a long complicated history. In a previous update I mentioned that I have written volumes of journals, well it hasn't all gone to waste. In fact, having all those journals, have given me a solid knowledge of events which have shaped the world!

But one thing which have become more abundantly clear has been the lore around the gods and goddesses. One such goddess is Izanami, whom you will meet in Star Awakened. Her character has been one of those instances where the art defined the character. And inspired events in the book!

I can't get into too much details about her as I don't want to spoil events from the book, but she has quickly become one of my favourite characters. And I can't wait to write more of her in the next book!  So, without further ado, here is Izanami:
 

Izanami was another character which wasn't in the first draft. But she has revealed herself as a pivotal character when I rewrote Star Awakened. And the plot line with her is critical to the integrity of the story. She is also the cause of much anguish due to the complexity she has introduced to my story! Knots and twists I now need to somehow solve and unravel. But that is next years problem when I write book three. I am sure future-me will thank me...or curse me. We'll see.

Anyways, what do you think of the art? I apologize for the censorship, but I need to keep this PG13.

For today's poll, tell me which of these you prefer!

Have a wonderful Monday!

Yours in art,
Therena
