Origin Story:
One into two...
After the ending of the previous book, there was several elements to the larger narrative that needed to be addressed. The book went through two versions. The first was the original expectations to resolve everything in a single book. This was meant to be the end of the story arc involving the Oria. However, it felt like I the book was rushing through a lot of things and so, much of what occurred in this first version was moved into a unplanned for next novel. Was it meant to be a two-part set of stories? No. The one great aspect of this occurrence was being able to pay homage to the "To be continued..." cliff hanger from Star Trek: The Next Generation's Best of Both Worlds. Doing so was ideal for a series that makes several references to sci-fi, science fiction, and space exploration.
​
With so much removed from this book and moved into a sequel, the frantic pace of moving from one event to the next was dramatically slowed and multiple story elements were better explored in depth. Although, most of the book remained the same in the first draft up until the last hundred pages or so. The crew being re-united being the focus of this book before the final confrontation.
​
Both this novel and Liam's Legend were written simultaneously once a decision was made to expand into two books. Mostly it was to make certain that if something happened in the first book, that it would fit into the next to avoid plot holes and conflict of information. The sequel was began before the first one was concluded, leading to a balancing act between the two narratives. For instance, the second book was started and Parallax's crew was missing. Their fate unknown. Another was the opening scene of the second book being the final scene of the previous book, finding a way for the two to link up together.
