NOVEL NEXT A Note From Me To You
Dear Reader:
When I first published the Known Cosmos series on Royal Road in June, 2025, I didn't expect anyone to read it. The fact that my books have received over 5,000 views six weeks later is astonishing to me.
Thank you.
I hope I made you laugh.
But more importantly, it is my sincerest wish that as you connect to my characters, you feel seen and understood. My favorite line from Book 1 was in Chapter 64: A Night With Ren:
"And for the first time in his life, Ren Crieve had felt understood."
- Ayela Arcana

PS: And now for some housekeeping. This series has undergone revisions. I reduced Ryst's internal monologue, removed passive voice, and increased the pacing of the first half of the book. I am sorry for the disruptions it caused to your Reading Progress as I reworked so many chapters.
Thanks for putting up with the sloppiness of live publication! There are Book 2 & 3 Snippets after this chapter. Just keep clicking Next Chapter to read them. Or skip the snippets and go straight to the Prologue of Book 2 here .
The revisions process taught me a lot. Did you know you can lose your Reading History if I delete/edit chapters? So, it serves us all when we follow authors and their books. Following Books ensures your books don't disappear from your Library during the editing process.
See you in Book 2!
