So all of my stories have a title but this one story I just can't think of one. I don't want it to sound similar to the other two since they're during different time periods.
I'll try to summarise the story real quick. It's about an elven prince who is forced to escape his own kingdom due to his parents being assassinated and his uncle taking the throne. Obviously, if he's alive his uncle doesn't have any claim to the throne so he claims that Orien (the prince) is dead but sends people out to hunt him down and kill him. He has supporters who help cover it up. That's not quite the main plot though. It's one of two. The other main character is the king of another kingdom who was taken into slavery when he was young and raised to be an assassin. Orien's kingdom is pretty much an empire and as it expands they take slaves as you do but Ahmik's (the other character's) people have been hit really hard because they have lots of useful abilities. Ahmik's goal is to free his people from slavery and the other races that have been taken into slavery. The two end up meeting and team up with a few others. Orien stumbles upon a rebel army dedicated to him and Ahmik thinks it's a good idea to ally so Ahmik helps Orien get his throne back and Orien helps free Ahmik's people.
That's a really bad abridged explanation of the basic plot but yeah. In a few words, the story is all about war, royalty, kingdoms, slavery, magic and all that good stuff. Wow I'm really bad at explaining things.
The other story titles, by the way, are 'Rogues of War' and 'Winged Warriors'.
I'd really appreciate any ideas cos I've pretty much given up.
May I ask why you titled the other books the way you did?
Winged Warriors is about a soldier angel
Rogues of War is a story following two rogues which are people from a group called the Druids who don't stay with them but instead go wandering. They're both dragged into the war, one being the cause of it and the other being the end
Hmmmm… Maybe something along the lines of "Hunted Royals"?
It's not bad but that isn't really the main plot, more a side plot really. I feel the other two stories are more about the characters but this one focuses more on the world
your title should give the reader a glimpse of what they are about to read. If the story is fixated on the throne the MC has to reclaim, u can go for smth similar to "The crystal throne" or sum shit (das a pretty good book series btw, i kinda recommend it). Or if u wanna focus on the Prince's journey, try smth like "The Prince's Birth right" or idk. There's tons of ways you can take this (idk ur story well enough to try and come up with more names. Im also pretty bad at names in general - i had a story for 8 yrs and i still havent named it, although im probably gonna go for smth referencing the stolen eyes of one of the characters)
May I ask why you titled the other books the way you did?
And yes, this question as well
Hmm…. Broken Empire? (Or something along those lines?)
Or maybe splice those two into The Royal Outcasts, The Outcast's War, War of the Royal Outcasts, etc.
Hm those are all quite good
I'll have to think about it
Okay here's what I've come up with (it's not really related to your suggestions though)
There are these lyrics that I liked from a song and I think they could work
'Cold As A Winter Storm'
The reasoning is, the main character favours ice magic, the continent is practically a winter wasteland, the elf kingdom that's doing all the bad stuff has a metaphorically cold society, and cold makes me think of the cold war which links it to war.
Any thoughts or modifications on this?
(also sorry it's not related to your suggestions but they did help me put more thought into it)
