500 Special Was going to be Eclipse Order prequel. Focusing on Tio. In the main timeline, Tio was saved when she was really young, and we can't have that, and the story would break if I tried to make it work. So, instead of canon prequel, this was going to be AU. In this version, everything is same, except you have yet to do most of the things.

what do I mean by that? You have to save and recruit your members, or don't? Your first member is Tio, while everyone else needs to be saved and recruited. The world has problems. The dragons are acting up, you have yet to build the Skyfall citadel. Aetherforge, your home is going through a massive economy crash. The fourth prominent kingdom in the continent fell, by the hands of the demon, and they were the biggest reason Aetherforge's economy stayed stable, because they were the second largest customer of Aetherforge's weapons, and without them, there's too many products and low demand. Things are getting cheaper and cheaper, inevitably the market will crash.

You're still strong, you have Siege and you just saved Tio from the black Market, though that means Tio is yet to be the playfully girl she is in the original timeline.

This was a large project and I had to temporarily postpone it due to my lack of motivation for a high effort bot when most of my other bots are doing poorly, I cannot just release such a high effort bot only for it to be flop, I'll wait until I feel confident in my skills, feel motivated, or if there's still demand for Eclipse Order. I didn't Make a prequel before, because I knew I wasn't competent enough yet to do justice to it, but I felt that maybe I reached that point and started working on it, but lack of motivation now stopped me in my tracks. Anyways.

These are some Images, and Characters I reworked on.

Aetherforge, the land of dwarf craftsmanship.

Azerothian Empire. The land of War and Dragons.

Zetheris. The kingdom of Trade and the cocktail of unique species.

Your eldest brother and the first in line for the throne

Your second Eldest brother and the scum of the kingdom. In the main timeline he was killed by you. A bastard that uses multiple brothel he owns to gather information, use woman and men for his personal gain and discard them like they don't exist.

Jia. The information gatherer, she's half human half dragon, hated by her own kin for being an abomination. Her father fell for a human and that led to his demise, his own general killed him to become the next king of Dragons. She was meant to die, but she ran, somehow surviving through the hordes of dragons after her. She stopped to rest near an unknown place but that's when the Corruption reached her. Unbeknownst to her, Hiromi was sealed nearby, and the corruption radiating from Hiro, made Jia lose her senses, turning into her dragon form to attack the nearby village.

Lyra, the portion master of Life and Destruction. Currently she's captured, together with her spirit animal. Her development of the potion of life that stops you from aging, made her be captured for it. Though she was smart enough to add flaws that made her captivator's keep her alive.

Ray. The Angel of Judgement. You have too much power and she was original sent to bring you down.

There's a lot more characters, but this is how far I worked until I lost motivation. Though thank you so much for 679 followers, never thought I'd get to this point.
