I must resist two temptations
One in the form of making Henri and the rest of the S'teirans as ghosts created by the spirit of Seika to be its/her/his (Do world spirits have gender? I suppose it should be neuter, nee?) agents of change. I mean, when you think of it, there had to be someone to safeguard the world from destruction, as people are rather wanton in their steady path to entropy. I mean, the world needs to ensure it existence, same as everyone else, only when it is destroyed, so dies everyone else on it. Seems like a good enough reason to make 'ghosts' exist. But then arises the problem, that if they are ghosts, then how come they feel real
The thought came to me because of that FMV from Final Fantasy X, the one for the song Suteki da ne. And it seems like an initial solution to the dilemna of their existence. S'teira is beside an industrialized country (Psynam). Why can't they access the other country? It was not cold as Athelia was in the time of the Changing of the Fortunes. Approach by land proved to be difficult because of the mountain range in between, but what about by sea? Having monsters localized in the area is just too silly to even be mentioned, and reminds me of really old-school "here be monsters" maps. After a while an intrepid explorer would have gotten through by sheer survival instinct and luck and returned to tell the tale of his misadventures. But if it was a place inhabited by monsters, why then does it appear to have a triving city in the middle of it? What, the beasts don't attack S'teirans?
I'm being a mean betareader to my own plot. =_=;
Ghosts that didn't know they were nothing more than figments of the world's whims. Sounds extremely Berkeley-ish.

The other is to take part in the ghost anthology. Tin, you are the ebil.

I have to make a story about a girl who suddenly grows wings, but I can't. I'm just out of it.
And that possible story about Leigh and Yuuta of Trinkets and the misanga is too tempting....

More NaNoWriMo-ness: So far I've listed eight boarders for Tita Trining's boardinghouse. There's Mr. Anal Retentive, Victor, Mr. Torpe/long-suffering best friend Bryan, Mr. Inflamed Nationalist Jose Maria Sioson (call him Jomar!), Mr Playboy Paul, Mr Muscleman/Loyalty Awardee Diether Palanca, Mr. Boy-Next- Door-Everyone's-Friend Christian, Mr. Scary Nerd Raymond, and last, Mr Effeminate Metrosexual/Karate Black Belter Lucas (Lucy for short). I'm considering changing Lucas to Mandrel or Amando, so his nickname would be Mandy; it sounds so much better than Lucy.
And I'm not yet done with the first chapter! Agh!
