Chapter 144: Image: Cover page to inevitable reboot. (And name change announcement.)

Hey all, so, I've firmly confirmed that I will be doing a hard reboot of this series as soon as arc 3 is over, with the associated changes already having been stated. In fact, I've already said this, but the next act will start after a time skip for which I will start with dropping some exposition and I will be treating it a lot more like how I plan to treat the reboot version as I am solidifying my image for it.
The only real serious point to know that will be changing without even really being acnowledged in series is that, and I know some of you are going to hate this (but I really couldn't find a way to manage this series without doing this,) the younger personality for Aerien will be treated as though she never existed. I had ideas for her at the start, but she was supposed to be more of a short lived thing that only went on for as long as she did as a fan pleaser since people liked her so much and demanded she stick around. Huge mistake on my part. For the sake of the remainder of this version, we can just assume that my original plan occurred in the space of these 3 years and now little Aerien has fully integrated and become one-and-the-same as older Aerien for something more of a combined entity and personality.

Anyway, now it's time to get onto more immediate points of interest. I wanted to unveil the cover art for the reboot version, especially because it also happens to have some character and weapon art that will be showing up and described in future chapters. The reason it's not going to become the cover for the current version is because it also involves a name change. "Second Life as the Sister of a Goddess" was just way too clunky from the start, and it also set expectations too high on Gaerien's role in the story compared to what we got. (Although I do plan to increase Gaerien's role with the snipping out of younger Aerien, because she actually WAS stealing the spotlight from a lot of the other characters which was my principle frustration with her from the writer's perspective, it will not be enough to justify her identity being emphasized in the title.)
The new title for the series after the reboot will be "Key to the Void," referencing Aerien's ability to open the way into the void. It also has other long-term plot related meanings, but revealing that meaning would be spoiler city. Anyway, here's the cover art, I'm actually pretty proud of this thing and I love the design the artist came up with for Gaerien. It actually matches her former goddess identity almost perfectly, for which the reason why will be revealed in the exposition dump in the first few chapters of the next act.
