Hi everyone I'm Dom the author of this story I'm working on a dark, emotional Star Wars-inspired saga called Echoes of Ashes. It explores the corruption of heroes, the manipulation of power, and the desperate search for meaning in a fractured galaxy.
I'm especially trying to develop these core themes:
The slow descent into darkness (Trax, Lorenzo)
Redemption through pain (Dom)
Legacy vs. control (Lara, Mr. Larusen)
Power corrupts vs. hope persists
I'd love your honest thoughts — especially on:
Do the emotional arcs feel earned?
Is the story's tone consistent and powerful?
Are the themes coming through clearly in the characters' choices?
What moments felt flat or confused you?
And fill free to share and new and existing ideas that can help develop my story.
