Sorry you got trolled by readers, and welcome to the club.
I would've respected your decision even if you had killed off Noor. It would've been sad, but you have the right to shape your own narrative however you want.
The people telling you to "suck it up" clearly haven't experienced harassment for writing.
On hindsight.
I think you needed some support when all the negative messages came in. But it is a demonstration you have the ability to build up characters that people really care about :-) Tefler went through the same thing :-)
If this came out as a book, you would finish the story and readers could only comment after reading the whole book and not affect the book halfway through.
On hindsight, you could have taken excerpts of the new text and done it count down style from the two drop ins.
T-8 hours - the new story text
T-4 hours - the new story text
etc.
You would still need to explain the timeline from drop in to cutting the head off. Why did it take so long? Why couldn't they rescue Henadi before hand?
Also, as written, Kim could be in the shadows 20 feet away rather than next to Andjuran. It is still confusing as to her location.
Not sure about the rolling dice. If you roll the dice enough every character WILL die. If that is the case then all the initial major characters will die and some minor character will rise up through the ranks to become major characters. Except of course they can die too. Even GRRM had a direction for his story and I don't think characters died at random, at least I don't think so :-)
I don't think they had a moments rest or hesitation in the preparation to rescue Henadi . But someone said they were twiddling their thumbs . When of course the only hold up would be the Union not issuing the critical warrants needed in a timely manner . Before invading a non Union Planet .
WW55 . Do you honestly think you have any say in how and what an extremely gifted artist does and handles his craft ? There is no one especially the author that could benefit from your input .
And for the other below you to suggest that the author is " playing with your emotions " . Wow .
That sounds like a very high compliment . He is very good .
