Seeing those mini comics of chapters twenty-three and twenty-four made me want to make some Empyrean!Trey fanart...
*Looks at the 13 poorly sketched twst fanart ideas that are already waiting to be worked on*
....... SIGHHHHH.. What doesn't a Trey lover do? A 14th one won't hurt (much).
Lol, well, you're lucky that it's pretty much been established that characters may be reoccurring, in the sense that they might appear again (example: chapter twenty-four). To what extent will characters reappear? Continue reading to find out!
Anyways, I have to leave a progress check. "But Shiny, you made a progress check like two days ago." I know. I've just written more, like I finished a chapter in two days and I'm about to start another. Also, seeing the progress of act four made me realize something that took me a moment to fully process.
Progress check first!
Completed, fully posted! Act one (Heartslabyul) was eighteen chapters (prologue and chapter one to chapter eighteen) which made a total of approximately 80.4K words in 208 pages with 28 lore parts. The page count for the Heartslabyul characters looked like:
Ace currently has . . . 45 pages
Deuce currently has . . . 45 pages
Cater currently has . . . 43 pages
Trey currently has . . . 43 pages
Riddle currently has . . . 39 pages
Completed, eight chapters posted! Act two (Savanaclaw) is eighteen chapters (chapter nineteen to chapter thirty-six) which made a total of approximately 81.1K words in 210 pages with 34 lore parts. The page count for the Savanaclaw characters looked like:
Jack currently has . . . 53 pages
Ruggie currently has . . . 51 pages
Leona currently has . . . 70 pages
Completed, yet to be posted! Act three (Octavinelle) is eighteen chapters (chapter thirty-seven to chapter fifty-four) which made a total of approximately 77.8K words in 205 pages with 31 lore parts. The page count for the Octavinelle characters looked like:
Floyd currently has . . . 61 pages
Jade currently has . . . 61 pages
Azul currently has . . . 72 pages
Uncompleted! Act four (Scarabia) is nine chapters so far and counting (chapter fifty-five to chapter sixty-three) which makes for a current total of approximately 36.6K words in 95 pages with 8 lore parts. The page count for the Scarabia characters is looking like:
Jamil currently has . . . 32 pages
Kalim currently has . . . 32 pages
The main realization I had was: oh my god, I'm probably on the verge of the halfway point of act four. Right now, I'm estimating that act four will be longer but only by two chapters. So instead of the usual eighteen chapters each previous act has gotten, act four may end up with about twenty. I'm not 100% sure yet. It may happen, it may not happen. The good thing about act four is that I don't have to worry about juggling three or more characters and trying to make the content even, I only have to focus on two.
But anyways, yeah, act four is almost halfway done. Ideally, I hope to finish it by the end of the year? That seems like plenty of time, given how long it look me to complete the others but we'll see. We're in no rush, that's why I spread out updates.
What came as a shock was that wow, act four is halfway done. And once act four is done, that means Empyrean is halfway done, and that's the real shocker. I never actually expected that random idea called "outlander" to become this huge project, yet here we are.
Right now I'm on a roll with act four. I've had a lot of ideas, made a lot of voice notes for myself, and come up with different concepts to use. So hopefully it'll be enough to keep me motivated to write at least another chapter or two.
Dang.. life sure sucks when you aren't a smart cookie or addicted to puzzles but are a huge fan of Empyrean and lore..
I did a ton of searching last night and still can't find anything, so I'm probably just dumb 😓 but I seriously applaud those who managed to succeed and wish good luck to those who are still searching. I'd like to applaud your cleverness in making these puzzles aswell, shiny! I enjoyed your writing in the latest chapter as always, I hope you enjoy your week.
- Orca anon
Thank you, anon. And don't worry, I will make the secret scenes available eventually. Not anytime soon, but eventually.
I can't wait to see what Mouse's actual nickname will be. New MCs were always my favorite part of Damnation. Also looking forward to the inevitable arrival of "Shrimp" MC lol
I fear I'm going to have wait for the secret chapter. I suck at puzzles lol
The nickname for act two's MC will finally be revealed next chapter! And that'll be out either the fifteenth or sixteenth of this month. We'll see.
Act three's MC is probably more compelling or interesting, and I think it's because as each act goes on I've had more and more experience with writing each act. For example, when writing for act one it was more like a "let's see if people like this idea but I don't know if I'll continue it" mindset. But as I have continued, I have more of an idea of what I want to do and have more certainty than before hence why I tend to like each MC more than the last.
Oh, and speaking about the puzzles... I have another one ready to go but I'm waiting on it. And it's like over 10x harder than the last one, and for good reason. I will genuinely be shocked if anyone solves it, but I'll let y'all know once I share it. It won't be for at least another month or so.
For centuries, the God of Steel has fascinated and intrigued. There are a limited number of gods in history who were as infamous as he. Everyone knows of the tale of how the Kingscholars defeated the God of Steel and magic users are endlessly fascinated by records of his extremely rare mystical powers of metal magic.
The former Geo Archon is described as being a stubborn fellow who took many secrets to the grave with him. Even thousands of years after his death he continues to captivate the very people he tried to destroy. There still remain many unanswered questions about him. Exactly what type of entity was he? How exactly was he treated by humanity if the treatment caused him to wish vengeance upon everyone? And perhaps one of the most pressing questions: what were the God of Steel’s final words?
It may have been the Greater Lord Kingscholar that dealt the finishing blow, but it was the Lesser Lord Kingscholar who heard the God of Steel's last words. No matter how many times it has been asked, no matter how many centuries have gone by, the God of Intellect refuses to answer the question. Even in the face of his elder brother, Greater Lord Kingscholar, Lesser Lord Kingscholar still refuses to answer. The only sort of response he gives is always, “That is knowledge that will never be imparted.”

Book anon here 👋. Finished reading ch.25 and now I'm imagining a chase scene like in liyue and just like a certain ginger I envision the red thief popping up like " hey girlie! Hold still". Seriously though what a unlucky timing for the poor Mc. 🐭mc does seems to be the overconfident and reckless type. When mc said the kill word I immediately went Welp we're cooked.
To be fair, MC only meant to be heard by Jack and Grim. They did not mean for everyone in the plaza to hear that. The only reason that happened was because their magic activated and the statue broke right before the words came out. Of course the broken statue will be noticed, and it will draw attention to the one who did it, which is why it went quiet at literally the worst time-- when MC was saying that. Very unfortunate timing.
Talking about act two's MC and giving a progress check.
Fun fact, MC was going to be way more reckless. In the original draft, they made some very questionable decisions and said some outrageous things. However, after rereading it, I realized it made them somewhat annoying and difficult to support so I ended up changing them during the editing stage.
I'll admit, act two's MC is not my favorite. There was a lot I changed about them often, more than once, and I feel like it kinda shows. Which is why I tried showing more care to the later MCs (from act three and act four).
One of act two's major sources of inspiration was supposed to be Toph from ATLA. That was once of the things I changed. Why? Because Toph is very capable and OP with their abilities. Am I saying act two's MC is incapable? No, absolutely not. Out of all four MCs, they're probably the bravest. They're willing to throw hands and do it successfully (in most cases), they're capable of a lot such as defending themselves, and they learn from others quickly. However, what I am saying is MC isn't OP because they're only a modern human and they're still starting out.
Anyways, as you may or may not know, Rebel!MC has two sources of inspiration: The King of Hearts and Alice. Act two's MC also has two sources of inspiration, one of which is very obvious. The other one? Not so much, it may take a bit more to figure it out. I will say, each MC will have a special technique/spell (example: Rebel!MC's ability to block pyro). And act two's technique (that will show up later) is inspired by this second inspiration.
So, progress... I genuinely think it's been over a month since I gave an update?
See, I was in a bit of a writing slump and writing for other stuff, but recently I was just relaxing listening to music for ideas when I one line I heard made me panic because I had an idea that needed to be written down that very instant or else I would forget it. That was maybe two or three days ago, and in that time I managed to finish writing a chapter one afternoon and wrote almost an entire chapter in one day. We are so back.
I made some sizable edits to Savanaclaw's act two and some minor changes to Octavinelle's act three. That said, here it is, the progress check:
Completed, fully posted! Act one (Heartslabyul) was eighteen chapters (prologue and chapter one to chapter eighteen) which made a total of approximately 80.4K words in 208 pages with 28 lore parts. The page count for the Heartslabyul characters looked like:
Ace currently has . . . 45 pages
Deuce currently has . . . 45 pages
Cater currently has . . . 43 pages
Trey currently has . . . 43 pages
Riddle currently has . . . 39 pages
Completed, eight chapters posted! Act two (Savanaclaw) is eighteen chapters (chapter nineteen to chapter thirty-six) which made a total of approximately 81.1K words in 210 pages with 34 lore parts. The page count for the Savanaclaw characters looked like:
Jack currently has . . . 53 pages
Ruggie currently has . . . 51 pages
Leona currently has . . . 70 pages
Completed, yet to be posted! Act three (Octavinelle) is eighteen chapters (chapter thirty-seven to chapter fifty-four) which made a total of approximately 77.8K words in 205 pages with 31 lore parts. The page count for the Octavinelle characters looked like:
Floyd currently has . . . 61 pages
Jade currently has . . . 61 pages
Azul currently has . . . 72 pages
Uncompleted! Act four (Scarabia) is eight chapters so far and counting (chapter fifty-five to chapter sixty-two) which makes for a current total of approximately 33.7K words in 87 pages with 8 lore parts. The page count for the Scarabia characters is looking like:
Jamil currently has . . . 30 pages
Kalim currently has . . . 28 pages
For the longest time, I was stuck on the end of chapter chapter sixty-one until the recent surge of ideas and motivation that hit me. With that surge, I was able to create a rough outline for the next chapter or two.
One of the best parts of writing this act has been the MC. They were a tiny bit different at first, but I decided to make some subtle changes in other to fit the story better. It's surprisingly fun to work on them, as fun as it is to work on characters like Kalim and Jamil.
Anyways, that was a lot. So for sticking around this long, have a peek at the aesthetic boards I've made of the MCs so far! These are private, because with the way some of y'all appear sometimes... discovering these secret boards would no doubt have some of y'all guessing major plot points and endings.
Hiii @shiny-jr, VERY short animatic? About empyrean!riddle, it’s more lore related than anything, I just think it’s suit him, especially the part “heiress with a little girl soul” which is…not included lol!
Idk I just listened to this in the car and gained a third eye.
hola, se que me ausente medio año y ya estamos en julio, es me dio la matazon de la creatividad y ganas de morirme, en fin, este dibujo es para la señorita shiny jr, es de rebel mc
In English:
Hi, I know I've been gone for half a year and it's already July, I just had a creative block and felt like dying.Anyway, this drawing is for Miss @shiny-jr., she's from Rebel MC.
Closet up
An collage (becouse Tumblr is a tricky little jerk/ por qué Tumblr es una pequeña mamagueva)
I swear I saw this earlier, but when I tried to find it again to reblog, it vanished off of the face off the earth. When I saw it again, I had to reblog before it disappeared again! I even went digging through my emails (because I get notified of some things there) to find this and save the art.
I'm glad to find it again so it can be shared! Your version of Rebel!MC is so cute and fearful. You really capture their anxiety and panic well.
Yes thats my man, I am a very proud Riddle admirer enthusiast besides.. unspeakable acts..? If you look through his lenses it is completely justified if you look on the bright side he's nice to us. And well. Hes so cute!
₍₍⚞(˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶)⚟⁾⁾◞♥︎
On the subject of being a admirer of Riddle, may I have the grace of being Admirer Riddle anon? Incase I return. (⸝⸝> ̫ <⸝⸝)

How am I meant to mourn over the furnace being burnt down when Riddle looks like a full course meal. He's such a pretty boy. I feel kinda bad because the furnace was home to probably tons but Riddle.. I adore whenever Riddle pops up! ♡(๑﹏๑//)♡ The way you write Riddle is absolutely majestic!♡
The same Riddle that committed horrible unspeakable acts? That's your man? 🤨
Cater seething from jealousy from smelling y/n on Ruggie was my favourite bit from the latest chapter 👌. I thought Ruggie would rub It in his face a bit more 🤣. I look forward to your Empyrean au story the most these days. It brings me so much joy to read your amazing writing. Thank you so much for sharing the labour of your creative endeavours with us shiny. If it's not too much trouble will you to put the lore bits, magic styles, relationships and maps details on ao3. Sincerely book anon.
The only reason Ruggie didn't rub it in further was because he knew he needed to keep his mouth shut. Had it not been for that, he would have been lowkey insufferable and a fight may have broken out.
AO3? That's an interesting ask. I mean, I'm not sure how well I can format and place the notes and lore into AO3. I've thought about it, and I just can't organize it as well as here on Tumblr. So, sorry, but I don't think I'll add that content onto AO3. It'll always be accessible here on Tumblr though.
I would love how to figure out how to do that feature that another writer did once on AO3, where it looks like you're actually looking at a letter or envelope or page. That could be so cool for Empyrean lore, but using AO3 requires a lot of coding and technical stuff which I am not good at.
So I was able to create a few, but I only added those belonging to chapters one through four just to see how it's received on AO3. I also left the links, just in case readers prefer them.

Umm, hi, hello! This is the first time I'm interacting with this blog in general. I'm usually a lurker, interacting with others tends to give me anxiety, but your recent chapter of Empyrean has got me thinking!
So I want to start off by saying that I really appreciate your work! I can see how much care and dedication you put into your stuff, and as a fanfic writer myself it's very inspirational! Keep up the good work, you're doing great!
And now, for the main reason I wrote this. Wow, I did not expect that to happen. It went from 0 to 100 real fast, and there sure as hell going to be consequences for poor MC (they can't stop getting fucked over, huh?).
I have a small question: can the MC hold only one element at a time, or is it like in Genshin, where the Traveler can switch between them at any time (or even use multiple at the same time)? The way it was worded in the chapter, it gave me the impression that the geo magic essentially replaced the pyro one, although I suppose all of this information will be revealed soon enough.
Anyway, have a good day/night, don't let the burnout claim you!
Thank you very much for having the courage to reach out then, anon. It always means a lot that someone would send me something, especially if they aren't particularly used to it. And thank you, I'm really glad you think of my work positively.
All the MCs are definitely gonna go through it. Act two's MC (currently Mouse MC but their moniker will be revealed next chapter) is not excluded.
Anyways, I don't think I need to answer this question since the last chapter answered it. So hopefully you caught that!
