Obligatory Authors Note

An explanation for this all

Hi!

I just wanted to write a short author's note, as to why this particular essay of sorts of mine is here.

Born out of a project of mine for fiction writing, I had originally intended for this essay to be one about a story made by myself. However, as some of my peers had pointed out, and due in part to time constraints I had at the time of writing, I decided to write something about two universes that I had grown attached and well versed in.

And what better universes, I thought, to mesh together than that of Halo and Mass Effect.

Drawing inspiration from how real world wars end, and how governments or individuals act or treat the end of such conflicts, I decided to make an essay-type piece of writing that built a universe based on the material of both universes I had to work with, which reflected the politics, economies, and societies of our as best as I could envision it in a more advanced world than our own.

Hence, this piece of writing was made.

I have no idea as of yet, if I will continue to work on this to become a fully fledged story, but I would like to leave this here for anyone who might want to use this particular universe, or a mirror of it, in any story they might want to make. A writing prompt, if you will.

Give your comments or suggestions in the comment thread!

Til next time,
