Appendices of Part VI

Some may find that the appendices of Part III are out of place. Many are simply descriptions of how the gods function, facts not necessarily needed when reading which may change in the future. This is indeed true, and I believe I will remove all of these when the next book is published. Ultimately, I would like to sell the six parts of the story together as one novel, and there the appendices will function quite well. For instance, it would be helpful to the reader if my take on the Mars calendar is read as soon as possible, though the fact that this all occurs on Mars would not be a surprise like it is now (and the details of this mystery will be explained at the end). 

So what new material will appear in the new appendix of Part VI? This has been mentioned to various people through different mediums, but I do not know if it was expressed here. What will be included is an event timeline. This was originally created so that I could keep track of everything going on, especially the events mentioned in Part IV. One could indeed use the timeline for spoilers, so there will be some kind of warning present. There will also be content in the timeline which is not mentioned in any of the books, which currently includes details of Aglodon's past history not mentioned. It will also be a useful tool when trying to link the different books together, as I frequently go back and forth in time. 

The final thing that I know I will be including is a list of every single place mentioned. There are over ninety places mentioned so far, so it is a list I need to glance at now and then. Naturally, this list holds the definitions of such places, including descriptions of their location. There is also an added timeline element, where I give the date of the origin and end of a place. This doesn't really help for natural landmarks, like mountains, but it is helpful when looking at when nations and cities rise and fall. Still, quite a number of these origins and ends I are details I do not yet know, so for a majority of items these are replaced with a question mark. Included is the date range used within the story so that I or another reader can at least know when a place most definitely existed. As I get into the last book, much of this information will likely be filled in.
