The following summary contains spoilers. Friends who have not finished watching the first part do not recommend reading it, otherwise it will significantly affect the reading experience:

Different books, the structure and meaning of each book must be different. When I first thought about the fateful plot, I had the idea of ​​the first one in my mind, which should be an introduction and a prologue. What it needs to do is to After so many years, what is the current world like? What has been major changes compared to the mystery has been initially revealed. What is needed is to roughly establish the image of the protagonist, Lumian, and then slowly craft it. What is needed is to lay some key clues that are of sufficient importance.

After having an idea, it is the question of how to implement it. At the beginning, I had no preset position. I searched for inspiration through a lot of reading, conception, and playing games. At this stage, a reader recommended me in the comments of the public account. The game "Addy Fenci's Memory".

I played for less than half an hour and couldn't stand the severe 3D dizziness, so I had to give up. But then I went to Bilibili to b and Zhihu to browse related videos and articles, and completed the level in this way (not.

Then, I was thinking that this way of telling a story in a symbolic and metaphorical way is very interesting, and it also has a psychedelic and chaotic feeling. In terms of temperament, what I want to grasp and what I want to show is Quite fit.

With this idea, I decided to play some fun in my first part of fate.

As for people, there are always people who are impulsive to be dying. They always don’t know how much they are. They want to challenge everything, but life is so short, how boring it would be to keep repeating yourself.

Moreover, I have never played symbols and metaphors. For example, in Arcane, the dream section of the path is to use the analysis of dreams to symbolize the character, tendencies and ideas of the characters.

So I think this time, we can still use the form of dreams, but we can't just have more than a dozen chapters, we can't just try it out, we can't just focus on Lumian's self-psychology, we must deconstruct and abstract the stories that have happened into various The symbolic and different metaphors are reorganized and sewn together with the novel plots that Lumian has read, and are imaginatively and speculated, and are presented to everyone with a sufficiently complete and clear story.

Everyone, this is very interesting. I am telling such a story, but it is actually such a story. From the perspective of the creator, it is really interesting.

But as an online article, I must ensure readability and usefulness.

The former means that the author cannot have fun, and the readers are confused and cannot see it. This requires that the reorganized story be told in a simple and easy-to-understand and interesting way, and also some clues and some abnormalities are needed. The place is thrown out in a simpler and straightforward form, so that when flipping it later, the reader will feel "so it's the case" instead of "what are you writing?"

The latter means that you cannot write about a hundred chapters in a flash, and then tell everyone that this is a dream of the protagonist, and that readers will inevitably have the idea of ​​"what is this meaning?", so this movie cannot be simply written. What happened is told in a symbolic and metaphorical way, and must play a more important role in the story structure of the entire book.

So, after the dream is broken, I have to use flashbacks and "report" to tell everyone that this movie is not only deconstructing the protagonist's heart and giving him the endogenous motivation to act in the future, but also many plots have symbolic meaning. It is a metaphor for something else and buried many clues. These clues are very important for the development of the subsequent text and the development of the story. They are not just a simple dream.

In this sense, the "Nightmare" is indeed an introduction. I will slowly fill in the pits left behind, and the most important one may have to be untied if it is the third to the last or even the second one.

Let’s continue to talk about the ideas and practices of creation:

After confirming what I want in the first part, I haven't started writing for a long time because I'm lazy, because I haven't finished reading the information, because it's still early to start the book, until the comments mentioned in the comments on the shelves, I lost a few of them.

The title of the book is given a starting point and let them choose themselves. Their choice will determine the second way of Lumian and determine the direction of some stories.

They chose the "Ring of Destiny". When I looked, "Ring of Destiny..." and touched my chin. The first part could add the elements of the loop. The comparison between the front and back of certain things is also symbolic.

More elements can effectively improve reading.

At this point, the idea was completely finalized, but what we wrote at the beginning was not what we saw now, but the story that happened on the real timeline, including every important detail.

I named it "Solid Line".

With the solid line, the key plot and details are extracted, and combined with elements such as dreams and loops to create a story on the surface, which is the "bright line".

In this process, sometimes the key plot is symbolized and metaphorized first, and then put it into the story, using Ollor's novel plot and Lumian's imagination to eliminate the inconsistent parts.

At the time, there is a clear story first, and then consider which real plot is added and how to symbolize it. In short, it is a process of getting closer to both ends.

After completing these, there is a step to note the best writing.

What does it mean? It means the key points of writing certain characters and certain stories. For example, the annotation of the three investigators is normal writing, and the annotation of the Ollor is "Lumian's beautified impression, the repeated presentation of deep memories, and the novel bridge

The paragraph covers some details, and the certain display of abnormal behaviors. The subsequent cycle is more realistic and self-thinking”, etc., etc.

Later, in the outline handed over to Qidian for review, I deleted all the metaphorical and symbolic explanations of all the "solid lines" and left only the "bright lines". I don't want someone to know the answer before my story is finished.

Even editing is not possible.

Thinking about these things clearly means writing formally.

Many readers often have a question: Does this perfect outline setting and follow this in the future?

The answer is impossible, there will be inspiration at any time, and sometimes you can't find a better follow-up process without writing a certain plot.

An example of the world on the other side, when the siblings of Orol and Lumian face many undeads.

On the one hand, I pushed Ollor away from Lumian's key point into a relatively simple symbolic form, and on the other hand, I will consider how to fill in the remaining content and details.

Obviously, in the "solid line", Orol only said the sentence "My, notes", so more dialogue details and story development require Lumian to imagine himself and find it from Orol's novels.

inspiration.

After repeated thinking, I finally decided to improve the plot in a more 2D way. At that time, I thought that this could well reflect this dream, and some plots originated from the novel.

But I also know that this will definitely make many readers uncomfortable. After all, it is really different from the overall style, and it has been too sensational.

I thought about it and thought, due to time constraints, I really didn’t expect a better way to deal with it, so I could only write it out like this. However, during the process of thinking, I felt that this could be ended with an echo!

In this way, one can further show the essence of the dream mixed with novel plots, and the other is that when the second echo, there is the prelude to the previous one, there is an uncomfortable memory, and there is an onlooker who is overly sensational to the passengers.

If the language is not realistic enough, I can turn this ancient romance or two-dimensional dialogue into a sharp knife, precise and moving.

What is outdated is never dialogue, but how to use it.

In other words, when I wrote about the other world, I really had the end of the first nightmare.

There are two endings that were originally expected to be abandoned:

First, after Lumian escaped, he slept in another alpine pasture. He dreamed of Kordu village again, dreamed of Ollor, dreamed of friends, the Kordu village in his dream was so peaceful

That kind of peace, this comes from the title Nightmare.

The second is to cut the camera directly to the Trier bar, Lumian told the story again, "I am a loser, and I hardly pay attention to whether the sun is bright or not..." This shows a cycle and fate.

The structural beauty.

Yes, the first sentence at the beginning of the story compiled by Lumian, and the first sentence at the beginning of the first part of fate, is a high degree of refining this "nightmare", a genius, and a general initiation.

Since the first movie is full of symbols and metaphors, how could there be no story that Lumian told and the beginning of the book?

According to Lumian's character, this story must be eight-point fake and two-point real, and the real part is more symbolic, hiding the core clues.

Everyone, I used the story made by Lumian to tell you from the beginning what the first part will look like, and that is its symbolic meaning.

The above are the creative ideas of the first part, the writing summary and satisfactory part, and there are certainly some shortcomings:

First, the story of the first part is put in the story of the story acceleration stage, which brings some harm to the overall rhythm. In fact, I should adjust the order and talk about these before knowing that the cycle story begins to become intense.

Or just spread it a little, and use flashback and flashback writing techniques to scatter that part to the next few places.

The second is to explore the underground church and Lumian hunting flame monsters. This section was temporarily used up because the clues in the early stage were temporarily used up, and the later abnormalities were not yet shown, and the plot showed a relatively weak state. This was when I first set up the outline.

Unexpectedly, when I got there, I really need to slow down, but it couldn't wait for that long. Moreover, the entire dream ruins are mainly hunting and exploring areas, so it is obviously not attractive enough to take the lever alone.

But at that time, there were indeed some lines on the pavement, and some short stories had to be told, so the overall structure was more perfect, so I suppressed my impatient heart and finished it little by little. Of course, some content must have been deleted, which significantly accelerated the pace.

Before the comments and feedback, I felt that this was completed. After all, there was a manuscript at that time. So, seeing everyone's statement, I laughed secretly and adjusted it, and prepared to welcome the wind.

Fortunately, as a creator, my writing feels that I have not deteriorated yet and is consistent with readers.

The third is the misalignment of expectations. What I expected was that the first part of fate is the introduction, the key to opening the story behind it. It has its own structure, but the clues must be solved one by one, and many readers are looking forward to it.

Like the first part of the mystery, it is a complete ending and a powerful climax. There is no problem with this, but I can't think of how to imply that everyone can only fill in the tricks while playing with symbols and metaphors.

Fourth, the creation of characters, which is part of the sacrifice for the first overall conception. It can only be further outlined and added later. Of course, the part I expected to "compile" may not be the same as everyone thinks, and may be more

Crazy? Probably.

Fifth, the problem of upgrading in the early stage. I should put the negative impact of low-sequence potions as the end of the day is approaching. In this way, the rapid improvement of Lumian in low-sequence will not be too inconsistent.

There is no real feeling. After all, it has been several years since I finished writing the secret. Not everyone remembers some details later. When I realized this, Lumian was about to "provocate", so I could only borrow Aolol's

Let's talk and find some remedies.

Tomorrow, I'll get the characters of Orol, Mrs. Pualis, the Priest of the Church and the official trio.

After talking about this, I took leave as usual, because I wanted to improve the outline and rest adjustments of the second part. I took leave for three and a half days, and the first chapter of the second part was updated on the 28th, that is, at 12:30 noon on Friday.

After thinking about the second part, I chose a used volume name because it really fits so well that it cannot be found to replace it.

The second part, "The Light Chaser" - Remember, you will return to the dust.

This is also a smaller chapter. It is not comparable to the Faceless Man. Its size should be more than one hundred chapters, and it will not be much longer than "Nightmare".

Of course, there are also large-scale chapters in the future, which depends on the theme, structure and function of each piece.

Finally, thanks to the livy37 friend for rewarding the Silver Alliance again.

The last month is the last monthly ticket!

Well, I recommend another book:

Liuxia's new book "Above the Galaxy".

Tang Fei, a refugee boy who walked out of the ruins, walked step by step to the top of the starry sky with a pair of skilled hands and a beautiful face, an inexplicable responsibility and an unswerving oath.

If the gods no longer give him mercy, let us light a bonfire, carry a great sword, become a dead bone, or a legendary hero.

To be honest, the homonym of the protagonist's name makes me unable to bear to look at it, but it is still a good book.
Chapter completed!
