Hey everyone,
Alexander here, and I would like to say thanks for reading this PRELUDE Arc to the first Ravenlight saga!! For those not aware, about the time I came back from my hiatus I had already decided that the “Prologue Arc” needed to be wrapped up and that I could not consider it as the true beginning to the series.
YES IT IS STILL CANON!!!
The reason for this is due to the circumstances that triggered my hiatus and other problems that popped up back to back which have hindered Ravenlight. This has become especially relevant in the last month.
To clarify- I want to do something special with Ravenlight. I want to do Chapter Art, I want to make soundtracks for the series, I want to do a lot of things and turn it into something, whatever that something might be.
This, originally as the prologue arc, was meant to be an entryway into that venture. Unfortunately July happened and a lot of things happened then as well as in August. July I can best describe as the deaths of 2 mentors (one of whom was direct family) that I had for many many years, and that month began with a garage nearly burning down + an old cat needing to be put down. July and August also saw my brother heading off for college and of course, picking up those pieces from July… and unfortunately it wasn’t just me.
My art staff of 4 turned into an art staff of 1 by September for various reasons, none of which were anything bitter or hostile. Between that and Soul Fall continuing to struggle, it was getting tight for time. Naturally I knew coming back into this that either that hiatus needed to be prolonged to recover proper, or I needed to put a halt to the arc and do something different. In the interest of not delaying things any further I’ve chosen the latter.
And on the back of this message I would like to apologize for the rushed ending that was this Prelude Arc; but if it wasn’t obvious- I wanted to wrap this up. I honestly can’t say I wanted to keep it going with the drop in quality that happened so early on, so- we’re cutting it here to regroup and bounce back.
So what does that mean?
Well, Ravenlight the Series PROPER will be picking up with Saga 1 officially beginning in the near future. I can’t say when just yet as a lot of work needs to be done pending this Re-re-relaunch, chapter art and all and maybe the sound tracks, effectively hiring more people to the Ravenlight team… not to mention a few other things in the works to bolster the experience. I can’t say when, and yes, Ravenlight will be on yet another hiatus till then.
For updates, pay attention to my socials ig (@Astormsong on Bluesky, Threads, Facebook, etc). Or even join the Discord.
And with that I don’t have much more to say atm.
Again, thank you for reading. I apologize that things didn’t add up and that it got rushed, for me the quality wasn’t here after those couple months of BS and rather than trying to salvage something ik is screwed, I’m opting to move on. As it was this was never planned to be the true Saga 1 start anyway, only a prologue. Hopefully when things resume I will have things better prepared (and hopefully no more irl negative bs to trip things up). Till then if you did like what you’ve seen, consider checking out Soul Fall or other Ravenlight content.
With that, again, thank you for reading annnnnnnnnnnd I’m looking forward to sharing more with you soon.
Have a Happy Halloween, or Happy Holidays, or a Happy whatever it is as you’re reading this.
~Cheers
