Hi, I just wanted to take the time to thank everyone for their support on this story that is still very much a work in progress. If you are interested, this will be some lore to the story, no spoilers of course. I'm just one writer working on this story and if you are interested in learning more about it or you enjoy it and want to express what you like and even what you don't like, do not hesitate to leave me a comment. Please be patient due to story just being a hobby of mine and time for me is limited. Enjoy!

Decca Story Origins and Thoughts:

Decca: The Battle of Cards story started off as a simple concept, I
wanted to build a story centered around powerful cards and I'm a big fan
of trading card games of course, so it was a no brainer what the core
of the story would be about.  As a big fan of Shōnen anime,
like Dragon Ball Z, Naruto, Yu Yu Hakusho etc., I wanted to fuse my
passion for trading card games and anime by creating a story that
centers around interesting characters that battle each other with
trading cards. Yeah, I know the concept has been done before.
However, my idea took a bit of inspiration from anime like Naruto just
to name an example, where the characters learn techniques using their
hands to summon elemental and other type of abilities. For my story the
cards would be key for the fights. Characters would be involved in
fast-paced action but of course using different cards in order to summon
the different techniques and elemental abilities. There could be
something out there, a comic book, another novel, a video game even that
probably has a similar concept or basic elements to my idea. Well, I
haven't come across it just yet. Any similarities is just coincidental.
The debut of this story, the first rough draft, was posted originally on
Storywars.com. This site no longer exists unfortunately, but turns out
that my story really didn't take off on that platform. (If you do a
little of investigating on Storywars.com you'll understand.) I decided
to take it and expand on it and eventually I was able to create 8
chapters (Still a work in progress.) However, I decided to give up on it
for a time due to lack of response from an audience. I kept fixing and
adding to the story little by little. I officially added all 8 rough
draft chapters to websites like DeviantArt, Booksie and Wattpad to name a
few. I got a lot of hits on Booksie.com but Wattpad.com and
DeviantArt.com was not very successful.  (I even created many different
types of cards for the story and posted them on my   DeviantArt profile https://www.deviantart.com/eamproductions). 
But I kept at it and eventually found this awesome site. I decided that
if the story does take off I would dedicate more of my time to it. On
this site I decided to take my time, take it slow and not rush and add
all the rough draft chapters but instead see if there is enough
interest. If I see the interest, I will dedicate more of my time to
develop and edit each upcoming chapter. Thanks for reading and your
support. - X Caliber - Take care!
