Author's Note

You can completely skip this chapter, it's just me, the author, blathering on about the story and has nothing to do with the actual story line.

May contain Spoilers, dunno for certain.

Foreword

Warning, self-loathing and low self-confidence imminent, skip this chapter if you don't want me to ruin my own stories chances of being read.

Okay, so last night I read Forgotten by Sarcastic Brony, love it. Should read it if you get the chance.

Anywhoo, I took interest to his Marking system, but didn't quite like how he implemented it. I probably won't do it any better than him, so go read his story before you read this. That being said, this story has nothing to do with his story, no matter how similar events in my story turn out in compared to his. Some themes will remains closely related, simply because of how common the themes are across Fimfic so there's nothing I can do about that...

The main character is human and comes from our human realm, no magic or anything. He, on the other hand, has been modified to control a bit of magic of his own simply because it's something that fascinates me; giving semi-realistic know how on how a spell may actually work and what-not. That being said, Soren's not going to be some all-powerful god-like character with a multitude of super magic even if he can't be killed. At least I don't plan for him to be that way.

This isn't going to be some shameful self-plug story, I'm not going to take Soren and drop him into the established canon of the show though I may make references or gloss over episodes as I deem fit. I don't want Soren to be the end-all problem solver. I completely intend for Soren to cause problems of his own, though how or why I have yet to actually flesh out.

I have no idea what I'm actually doing with this story but I have an extremely vague idea. Like everything I've written and published here, I'm mostly just going to let it play out on it's own and drag me along for the ride. That being said, and this is where my low self-esteem comes barrelling in, I don't expect everything I write to be any good. I also don't plan to go over the past writing and rewrite it, simply because I find I have trouble rewriting a chapter after i've already established it and preceded it with later chapters that depend on it for the story.

Character tags will be updated as I see fit, as usual.

I may end up linking music in the story that I feel fits with what's going on in the story. Those selections may not be the best selection, but it's probably what I was listening to when I wrote that scene/chapter.

Someone at the end of the story will die, that's just how I write. Don't know who or how, but someone's gonna die.
