Hiyas.
I'm been thinking and planning out the very basics of three different ideas for an adventure based historic–fiction that I am thinking about writing. I love them all, and I think eventually I will do all three if I stick out with being an amateur writer, But I think that I will at least do one at a time to get my feet wet a little.
Without further ado, these are the ideas that I came up with.
1: "Dark Clouds" It is the year 666 A.D. From the east, A powerful nation is born and rising fast, a nation that believes in demonic rituals and worships Satan. With this new power ever so growing, both Christians and Molsems are in united, blind fear from this new nation and call a dual Crusade/Jihad against the unholy nation. The story follows Bennett (A name I am using right now), a young, better off peasant turned adventurer in the surprisingly liberal and secular (for the time, anyways) Kingdom of Albion. He must choose sides from both internal and external factions and people within Albion in order to defend his home
2: "Terra Australis" It is around the 1500's, and many nations are exploring new lands. One day, a ship and its crew that sailed too far down south in the Atlantic discover a new continent. Instead of the icy wasteland known as Antarctica, they found a new world with breathtaking landscape, unusual flora and fauna and powerful beasts, especially a huge dinosaur–lizard thingy that flies, roars and draws elemental power straight from its mouth like a flamethrower or an over-sized leaf blower, if you catch my drift. The story follows one of the crew members as him and the crew discover "Terra Australis."
3. "Rise of the Crescent" It is 1382, the Black Plague is over and has killed roughly 1/4th of all life of Europe. Entire nationalities like Spanish, Greek, Italian or Portuguese only exist in the 100s or even 10s of numbers. Most of Europe, and Christianity, has retreated to Britain, Northern Germany, Scandinavia and northern Russia. However, Islam, which has now almost doubled the size of Christianity, has started to move into Europe. Most of the Iberian and Greek Peninsulas as well as most of the Mediterranean islands have already become completely Molsem. I do not exactly know how I will try to start this out yet, either as one of the rulers of the Christian nations and his circle and other leaders or as a colonizer for the Caliphate and his crew.
So, what do you guys think? Any suggestions or changes you think that might suit the tone of the stories better? Again, this is only for a popular opinion to do one of these first and I will not choose any of these purely out of this post, and I will also try to find a way to share this with you (for free) after one of these gets done. I appreciate your thoughts :)
