To those of you that made it to the end. Thanks! and well done! I had two alternate endings but settled on this one. The other ending a happy one, with the Lagosphere destroyed. And the other in which the Lagosphere consumes Carthage, kills Ava and returns to Earth to wreak havoc. Replicating the entire planet and all its inhabitants. A little bleak but maybe more interesting. I like open endings, hopefully leaving the reader to draw their own conclusions and leaving it open to continue the story. So there it is, I''m still not sure if it was the right decision...

    I have a few short stories and other projects that I''m working on, will be posting soon. The more I write the more I realise there is so much more to learn. It''s exciting and Royal Road is the ideal place to do this.
