The Great and Powerful Trixie in the exordium under the pyramids

Trixie and Starlight searching one of the pyramids for the missing Young-Six

Hello, Fimfiction readers! Isn't it a bit late for an update?

I apologize for this sudden additional chapter in this fanfic. Don't worry—it's just that this message from me should have arrived much earlier. However, many things happened, and in the end, I couldn't complete this final version of the fanfic at that time.

I’m pleased to inform you that as of today, all the content of this story has been updated. It’s been an exhausting effort spanning an entire year!

Writing fanfics is tough. Translating them seems even harder—like walking blindly through a wasteland full of pits. Mistakes are inevitable.

Well, now let’s talk about what’s important. Beyond the edited and improved content for better readability, there’s both good and bad news for the coming year. I'll make a full post about it, but I can share this in advance: this is the last fanfic I’ll fully translate for this platform. I don’t think it’s healthy to invest so much for so few benefits beyond contributing to the community. Anyway, I don’t think any of my readers will faint over this—I hope not.

Returning to the story itself and reflecting on its completion…

I think I overdid it with some of the filler parts in the story. However, it didn’t turn out bad, and it feels like each part sets a different pace for the narrative. I’ve learned a lot from this, especially about how challenging it is to build such complex stories. Something readers may have noticed is that everything that happens in this fanfic takes place in just one day! Goodness! How many Fimfiction stories have pacing like that? If anyone can challenge this, I’ll be waiting in the deserted comment section.

On another note, regarding Trixie—her story doesn’t end here, for those who might be dreaming of a sequel. However, that story will be very different and will feature another main character. Writing that continuation will feel like writing the finale to all my works on Fimfiction, and I don’t feel excited about doing that—at least not for now.

But don’t be disheartened! Trixie will have an appearance (or several) in another one of my fanfics that runs parallel to this one. Which fanfic is that? I’ll leave it to my readers' imagination; time will reveal the answer.

I don’t think I have much more to say, except that I’m grateful to all the people who inspired me to finish this difficult and unique story. Wherever you are, I encourage you to keep moving forward despite the hardships we face. Don’t wait for a miraculous salvation from the skies—it might come, or it might not. Trust in the future, just as those who came before us trusted that we, in the present, would do better than they did.

Have faith. Have dreams. Have friends.

Sincerely,
Khampostel
