Morwenna Moonshine
Preptober 2024TASK ONE: Generating an ideaWhat is your general idea/concept for your story? What is it about? This task is looking for you to write a synopsis or create some sort of plan for your story. It can be difficult to get over the first hurdle of simply starting, so it can help to even just start by writing out the ideas you have and forming them into a coherent storyline. Some examples of writing structures include Freytag's Pyramid and The Hero's Journey, which can be useful for helping to plan your story, but you don't have to follow if you have your own ideas. This task has a word count minimum of 200, and for completing it, you can earn 1 house point.TASK TWO: World Building and Character CreationThis task is split into two parts: A and B. You are not required to complete both parts, but if you do, you can earn an extra 10 sickles alongside the rewards for each task individually.A and B
A: World Building
Where is your story set? This task is looking for you to describe the setting of your story. Even if your setting is the world we live in today, it can really help to have a solid understanding of where your story is set and how that influences the choices your character may have to make. You can zoom in onto a city/town/village where your story takes place, or if you're feeling ambitious, explore creating your own world and describe how life works there. This task has a word count minimum of 200, and for completing it, you can earn 1 house point.B: Character Creation
Who is the character(s) of significance in your story? This task is looking for you to describe the character(s) in your story. Well-developed characters can help to engage readers and make them invested in the story you are telling. Good things to focus on are appearance and why (for example, if they have constantly messy hair, why is it always messy?), interests, character strengths and flaws, and motivations for why they make the choices they make in your story. This task has a word count minimum of 200, and for completing it, you can earn 1 house point.TASK THREE: Finding TimeWhen will you work on your story? This task is looking for you to create a schedule for when you will allocate time to write your story. Don't worry if you are unable to stick to it in the end - even creating a schedule is a great start! It can be difficult to find the time to sit down and write, especially when you lack the motivation and have such a large target to reach. However, I find that breaking your target down into smaller, more manageable goals on a more regular basis can be helpful in keeping up the motivation and not burning out too quickly (to reach 50,000 words in NaNoWriMo, that is roughly 1670 words per day, or 12,500 per week). This task has no word count minimum or individual completion reward, but if you complete it along with all of the other tasks, you can earn the additional rewards (1 house point and 10 sickles).

TASK ONE
hellooioōoothe idea finished
Once upon a quite old time, long, long, ago. Before The Black Death. Go back a few more centuries. Keep going. Yes, go back a millenium or two. A very long time ago. Perhaps around a century or two after the world was born. After the World was split into two halfs. Two Empires. Yes! Stop there, when all the women started worked as slaves for their husbands. So, in that time, my dear, this is where our long story starts, a quite long, long, and very old story.
indentSo, Once Upon A Star, a women, a Virgin, wanted something different. She didn’t want her mother’s life, or even her grandmother ’s! She wanted something quite different. Something that prove her life was something meaningful. Not wasting her life away as a slave to a man who her parents betrothed her to, had zero feelings at all. She just wanted something different, that is all. Not a man. Just a normal life as a bachelorette and single for the rest of her life.
indent Rumors shroud the huge Empires, that Magic was born within the universe, but the Magical and the Enchanted say a completely normal women created Magic by the Sun’s light with a crack, boom, and a simple clap. She just wanted something diffrent. Probably to make her powerful. Presumably, the human fell in love, had a affair with the man she was supoosed to marry but didn’t marry, and passed her strong Magic to her small bluish babe, nine months later. The babe unfortunately died a quick death after birth. Born half-and-half, the human’s small babe couldn’t quite handle the fierce blue magic running thru her veins. The human, shall I call her the First Sorceress or The Very First Tyrant; her Magic grew, stronger, in depression, her Magic doubled in size before The First Sorceress used her Magic to evil the world.
indent The people on the world grew scared, and thought The First Sorceress was Hades’ Wife, who was coming for revenge. Soon, she was more than demanding, she poisoned people and gave them her magic to rise an army. It was Human-Kind v. The Poisoned. Before long, The First Sorceress was also the Very First Tyrant.
indentThe Empire, Selenedra, was ruled by a kindly king and queen named Lord Stephen and Lady Cecilia. Selendra was a huge world, sister to the other Empire, Arc of Peculiar Shadows. Arc of Peculiar Shadows was ruled by King Charming and Queen Xaire. But when the Sorceress decided she wanted to become queen, as if that would give back her blue daughter, she took Selenedra and Arc of Peculiar Shadows, under her rule, and named it, Azurine; her late child’s name.
indentThe world’s population decreased in multiples, from millions to hundreds. The two Empires had enough. They thought if The First Tyrant was dead, all the magic would stop. So, the rest of Human-Kind from the two former Sister Empires started to train. Two long fort-nights later, they marched right up to the castle she’d build from her magical hands straightforward the very ground. They, armed with bows, arrows, swords and deadly axes, went to face the Cruel queen. The People charged at her, and sadly, emerged from the castle with a quarter of what they had been. Humane was falling! What ever could anyone do, oh dear!
indentSo about hundred non-poisoned people--all that was left of poor Humane--all gathered together and chose a young girl to experiment on. To create magic, they stated. If The Cruel Tyrant could, then so could them! Near the full moon, they started, an shhhhh, a boom, and a crack later, moonlit magic rushed through the young girl’s veins. Perplexed, she was, she rushed to the castle to duel with the Poser queen.
indentThe Moonlight Witch draped in shadows and snakes, beat the Tyrant to the ground and she was killed. But in the last breath she had, the Evil Tyrant puffed out an evil curse, which, unheard of, the First Real Witch didn’t quite catch. Staggered, Humanity rejoiced, and praised the Moonlight Witch, for all she’d done for them. She stayed as an idol for years, and she was the two recounted Empires’ Healer.
indentBut, dears, the curse, you ask. Oh yes, it’s ugly, it’s quite evil, how would humane ever survive this evil! As the Nearly-Dead First Tyrant muttered the curse, a hatred so strong for The First Witch, so no-one would hear her. The curse was about how simple these curses can spread and a hatred for these people so strong she wanted people to live up even horribly then she did. She wanted the Magical to be licked and killed by flames she merely created herself. By a century after the Tyrant died an ugly death-the way a bastard like her should die- about twenty people had been abroad with the curse. And none had zero idea how to deal with this power. Merlin, they though they were dying! How they could lift things with their mind. Or run faster than anything on the earth? Or be able to multiply people?
indentNow, about a kiloannum later, two men, the First Tyrant infused their DNA with magic so the Enchanted and Magical would be dead, just like she is. They decided everyone should know them and know their Magic and they wanted to be gods. Gods that would destroy the world, once more. They charged a experiment. It half-way worked. They were immortal but their Magic was gone. But that wasn’t it. The two men used their immortality to hurt and murder the Magical and Enchanted. For years, and decades and centuries, and millenniums, the two Sister Empires, Selendra and the Arc of Peculiar Shadows, were hunted for the Witchcraft and Enchanted, by those two horrible bastards.
indentBy 2015, only ten Magical and Enchanted are left. Ten! Those ten have to find each and help each face the curse and break it. A few of them don’t know how to use their powers. Some of them don’t know why they have to do it. A few don’t want to live the way have to. But they have to.
indent And it was all because a simple women did not want to marry. Poor children, all because of a bachelorette who didn’t want to marry.

TASK TWO
hellooioōooworld building finshed
Oh, you wanna learn about the accursed world? Ah, you shall, dearest.
Before that simple evil women ruined the world, when Selenedra was ruled by Lord Stephen and Lady Cecilia, the first Dynasty of Selenedra since the beginning of the two sister empires. Though Selenedra had many, many, to many to count, Dynasties before 2015, The Arc Of Peculiar Shadows, strangely has only had one. Before The Very First Tyrant, the Arc Of Peculiar Shadows, was ruled by Queen Xaire, and the very first King Charming, and now their descendents rule Arc Of Peculiar Shadows. They shall be proud.
Now on to the very acres of the beloved lands of both people of the sisters empires. Basically, the two sister empires barley touch. Water and lakes and oceans shift their way into the path that goes from the empires. While Arc Of Peculiar Shadows has a huge land mass, almost all land is kissed by water, besides that one part of the land mass that shares a border with Selendra. Arc Of Shadows is filled with shadows; hence its name, its a eerily enchanting dark place. People say this is where magic was created, but they have no clue, as absolutely no-one knows who the First Tyrant was. She always kept a dark veil around her face, shrouded in mystery. Covered in jungles, pine forests, shadows, and water, the Arc Of Peculiar Shadows was a eerily place to live. But it was a great place for people to live. During the times of the First Tyrant, after Queen Xaire’s husband, King Charming wouldn’t give up his kingdom to a strange lady with a black veil covering her pale face.
Unfortunately, King Charming was killed, magically beheaded in the “rashness” of his decisions. In so, Queen Xaire and her small children at the time, were rushed out of the castle, fleeing to the deep forests of her beloved kingdom. They lived there, with some animals, with a couple of soldiers til word was sent that the First Tyrant was killed. Queen Xaire assumed the throne with a heavy heart, and when she died of old age, her children took charge.
Selendra’s (se-LEND-dr-ā) land was always covered with the moon's ivory glow. And Selendra has always had two parts. One completely surrounded by water, and the other is the mainland, and the only one of the sister empires that even have a Island. That island wasn’t always there. About 1783, a underwater volcano blew up, and it created a small but decent island. The monarchy at the time, swiped it up before the Arc Of Peculiar Shadows would. Seleneians (se-LEND-e-ans) quickly flocked there, when discovering there was gold hidden in the depths of the lava-created Island.
In 2015, when most of the novel is set in, The Arc Of Peculiar Shadows, and Selendra are settling with each other perfectly. As for royalty, Queen Blaire and King Charming XV are ruling The Arc Of Peculiar Shadows, with their little sixteen year old daughter, Princess Tallulah. While in Selendra Lord Tyler and Lady Jade sits on the throne, their rowdy eighteen year old son, Prince Jacob is to be betrothed to Princess Tallulah on Her Lady’s eighteen birthday. When that happens both Prince and Princess will assume the throne, ruling both sister empires. Throughout history, this has happened once or twice before, but after the betrothed couple has passed away, the two sister empires are back to being ruled by separate rulers.

TASK TWO- PART B
character creation finished
In “Morwenna Moonshine”, the main character who narrates the story is Morwenna Moonshine, and she has the Magical powers of the Moon and Ocean. The other nine main characters are the last Enchanted and Magical. Morwenna ’s great grandmother, Marina, will be another mainish character, she appears in all of the prologue and a bit of Chapter One. But Morwenna mentions her most of time in the novel.
MORWENNA MOONSHINE
Morwenna is a petite seventeen-year-old maiden with long lush dark dish-water hair, and stormy eyes. She lives on the Selenedra island, where her and her family had lived for decades. But the citizens, unfortunately, don’t live long on that island. Seemingly, every decade or so, a well-known person goes missing after wondering in the forest. People think they died. Others think they are held captive by those living among them. People say the island’s forest is just like the Arc of Peculiar Shadows, just warily. As a young girl, Morwenna lost her parents to the horrors of the island, as for her siblings; one of her sisters was deceased, died in childbirth, and her older brother escaped to Selenedra when the living horrors and trepidations exposed themselves to his poor mind, he went mad. The mad twenty-four year old made his caretakers/grandparents live on edge for the next few years before they died off a deadly illness. By Morwenna’s twelfth, all she had left was her great grandmother. So scared in the world and when she needed her great grandmother most, Marina had gotten ill, weaker, and turned to the water.
EIJAH WILOW
Eljah Wilow was born as a Seleneian, on the Mainland of Selenedra, and time travel was his personal Magic. Family poor as bones, Elijah had a strange childhood, not only that the curse destined him to be hunted, poor family meant scrabbling for food when a spear is pressed to your back. But thankfully for as young he is, that only happened once; his family was quite good at keeping their son alive, while other familes held grudges over others who had a cursed gift alike Morwenna and Elijah. Elijah is a kind young-eighteen years old-man with sleek jet black hair, dark skin, and dark eyes; his personality consists of a cocky, smart, athletic, liberal jock with strong legs and a goofy nature.
LINETTE CROWN
Linette Crown grew up as a wealthy cousin to Her Lady, Princess Tallulah. Linette, herself, has a thick Shadowlite accent, with the Magical ability, Super speed.

As a seventeen year old, she is quite cheerful, and she has long slender legs, athletic, and a stretchy kind nature.
YUVAL YARROW
Yuval Yarrow is a rowdy dark-haired Seleneian with a goofy mindset. His Magic is flight, and he has deep chocolate brown eyes matching his brown skin. Growing up with Elijah, on the main part of Selenedra, they learned how to walk in each other’s backyards, they learned how to count together, and they learned how to play sports together.
MAGDALENE LYNN
Magdalene Lynn learned how to control her Telekinesis at a early age. With long dark brown hair, her matching skin and eyes made her a beautiful mature young lady. When Magdalene was nine, she was playing hopscotch with a rock she make float. The immortal bastards found her, and she had run. She reached her house, and her family swore they would disguise her as long she did all chores and never play with neighbouring children again. At twelve, she already knew how to control her Magic with her mind instead of her finger, due to the increase of chores and no children to have fun with. Now with borders around her heart, she must learn how to love again.
PRINCE JACOB
His Majestic, Prince Jacob never had the easy childhood as the Seleneian prince. You would think that was the easy life. Prince Jacob always swore it was a hard life. He was a rowdy strong little soul with light brown hair and light brown skin that matched with his black eyes. His Magical ability was shape shifting.
PRINCESS TALLUAH
Her Lady, Princes Talluah was smart. At the age of one-and-a-half, she already knew how to count. She knew how to divide by the age of five-and-three-quarters. With high GPAs, Talluah was already a teacher at the age fifteen. With long, long brown hair that tumbled down her back, she wore green eyes with glasses, and was always super tall. Princess Talluah ’s Magic was healing. Her parents, King Charming XV and Queen Blaire had kept her secret; King Charming was ready to banish her from the Kingdom but Queen Blaire refused it. Seventeen-years-old Princess Talluah awaits to be married to Prince Jacob on her birthday.
JAXZON DUKE
Pale skin and dark brown hair and chocolate eyes made the hots for girls in Arc of Peculiar Shadows. Jaxzon was part of a lovely wealthy family, and when his Magic came upon him, his family shooed him out at the prime age of sixteen, when his Enchanting Magic of controlling animals. He went to crash with his friend Maxwell Steele who wasn’t along with his parents either. The young eighteen-year-old men are always talking about when they get older, they’re going leave the two empires. Like that is gonna happen.

With shockingly white blonde hair, pale skin, and light blue eyes, Maxwell makes his livings well. His Magical ability is that he can make electricity with words. Now with Jaxzon living with him and his family now, he always wonders what it would feel like to find love. A smart, jocky build he makes, isn't the only flaw he has.
NAYELI QUINNELL
Seventeen-year-old Nayeli Quinnell is a pretty soul, with auburn hair with lots of different colors, a pretty athletic build, dark eyes, and overall just a pretty face. Part of Selenedra, she’d know her fire/ice Magic since fifteen, and loves gossiping. Labeled pretty well, Nayeli basically goes through the motions.readers note: the characters are based of my friends, and the plot has been edited quite a few times. be aware that this novel idea is simply around the ideas of a few other novels and books. I just just would like to say that “Morwenna Moonshine” wouldn’t be alive if it wasn’t for the amazing books authors write.

TASK THREE
hellooioōoohow long finished
“Morwenna Moonshine” will be written on a weekly basics. I would like it to be daily but I am afraid that would not be possible right now. My sport season is ending, but I am doing another right after it. So the times I will write will basically whenever I can but mostly will be on the weekends!
About 400-1000 words each weekend and if I have time during the week, 100-500 words each day.
