Rewriting.

[bladespark]

I'm revisiting Blood and Fire, and contemplating making a real novel out of the mish-mash of stories at last. JJ has given me some interesting ideas, and I think I have an outline roughed out that will let me use pretty much all the good text from the current series of short stories, while tossing out the awful bits, and adding only a couple of chapters worth of text to get a single mostly coherent narrative. But before I dive into it, I need to do one thing, and that is rename the planet.

Mysteria is a ridiculous name for a planet. Particularly when said planet is a living, sentient being. Would you like being saddled with a moniker like Mysteria? It's also a rip-off from the Mystara D&D setting that was almost certainly the original inspiration for the role playing sessions that were the original inspiration behind my writing. I'd really rather not keep any second hand D&D references in this thing, it's going to be stereotypical role play fantasy enough as it is, really.

But I'm totally drawing a blank here on the name. Any suggestions? Serious preferred over silly, I have to use this in religious writings, epic bits of story, and everyday bits as well. Though silly suggestions will be obligingly laughed at. Just not actually used.

As if I'd do something like that to a serious story!

It was a silly non-suggestion? ;)
