Fin.
When Star’s website began over two years ago, she never envisioned it would have transformed her life as much as it did.
What was intended to record her memories became so much more. It inspired her to re-explore her island, journeying to new parts she had never been to before. And almost every week for the last two years, she has done just that.
It reinvigorated a desire to create cinematic trailer-style films like she did as a young puppy.
She even went on to chart her very own treasure trail through one of her favourite locations to encourage her readers to do the same. And today, a new Pokémon Go Sidequest is available to complete, merging her two favourite activities. Star’s Treasure Trail will continue receiving updates, so keep an eye on its changelog.
As time passed, her journal organically birthed some narrative-driven adventures spanning multiple entries. The latest of which she concluded last week in Loch of Ducks. Star’s Ice Cream Files adventure has also been updated with Part 2: The Godzilla Chronicle for reminiscing pleasure.
Sadly, all adventures must eventually come to an end, and it’s time for Star to sunset her journaling.
Choosing the right moment was difficult, but today felt apt. It marks the tenth anniversary since Star got her Xbox One and began her journey as a Guardian.
Volume One of Star’s Tale concluded with Chapter Three, a point of reflection and transition in her life. Volume Two begins next Monday with Chapter Four. The following chapters will be published on Mondays, concluding with Chapter 6 on September 30th. An epilogue is planned for a later date.
And with the addition of her portrait, The curation of Star’s Snaps gallery is now complete.
So that’s a wrap!
Thank you for reading Star’s journal all these years! Farewell! 👋
