It's not really so much that it's not working (especially after the background story I just wrote I like my main character more than I thought I would!), it's just the whole...making it up as I go along thing. Still have no idea who the antagonist really is, what's gonna happen...it's weird.

"Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And when you look long into the abyss, the abyss also looks into you."-Nietzsche
