In other news, I will be taking an extended break from the Phoneme series, which means Tales of a Lost World will not be released anytime soon. Yes, this is a trick of mine to build suspense for the series.

Anyway, what will I be doing in the meantime? I will be working on a rewrite of the Surixin series, an original series that I’d been working on before MMOTales, before Tales of a Lost Phoneme.

The original was entitled Surixin: Wings of Light Eyes of Dark, and consisted of 25 chapters centering around the story of one boy from a long-dead clan whose destiny was to take revenge on Victoria Island for an injustice done to his clan many years ago. In fact, my good friend Crayon has already posted the first 3 chapters of the original on this site.

Well, in the meantime while my fan(s?) wait for ToaLW, I shall be working on Surixin. =] Anyway, from now on I will begin working on Surixin and come back to the Phoneme series another time. If you wish to read the entire completed original version of Surixin: Wings of Light, Eyes of Dark in its entirety, you may find them in the fanfic sections of happymapling.net and sleepywood.net. Thank you.

Surixin Dekira: Light Against Dark
A remake of the original Surixin: Wings of Light, Eyes of Dark
Written By AznRiceFan,
RIFT Productions

Prologue

Once upon a time, there existed a mighty clan in the world of Maple who was known as the Dekira. Their long-dead ancestors fought valiantly for the people of Victoria. However, as is oft with happy times, their time came to an end.

Very long ago, there arose a mighty Crimson Balrog that the Dekira could not slay. Many lost their lives. Those who remained alive, banished the Dekira from amongst them. The Dekira Clan that once prospered on Victoria Island…was no more.

And so the Dekira came to Ossyria, a land where they have hid in to this day, secretly lusting for the revenge that they seek, for the injustice that had been done. However, little has brought this exiled clan hope.

Then the remaining children of those pure of Dekira blood were born. Those children, were the slim hope their people had hoped for. And one of them…bore the name light and dark.

His name was Surixin, and this is the tale of his rise to power, in his quest, to avenge his family.
