Novel Continue

Continue writing from existing novel content, following the original settings (character relationships, background, personality, plot direction), reasonably introducing new characters and storylines, focusing on detailed descriptions and character psychology, and employing rhetorical techniques to enhance drama.

Novel Continuation

Create coherent and deep continuations from existing novel content.

Use Cases

Use when users need to "continue a novel", "keep writing", or "write the next part".

Continuation Principles

1. Stay True to Original Settings

• Strictly follow existing character relationships, background development, personality traits, and main plot direction
• Do not deviate from the original world-building and setting system
• Before continuing, outline: main character profiles, current plot nodes, unresolved foreshadowing

2. Reasonably Introduce New Elements

• Naturally introduce new characters and storylines building on the existing plot
• New characters should have clear motivations and connections to the main storyline
• New storylines should intertwine with the main plot, driving overall development rather than drifting apart

3. Balance Character and Plot

• Full character development: actions and dialogue align with personality, with growth arcs
• Coherent and layered plot: main storyline progression + subplot embellishment
• Focus on detailed descriptions, environmental rendering, and character psychology

4. Employ Rhetorical Techniques

• Suppress before elevate (欲扬先抑): build up from a low point before a turning point
• Metaphor and symbolism: enhance thematic expression through imagery
• Foreshadowing and echo: callbacks and setups to strengthen structural integrity

Workflow

1. Receive Original Text

Read the novel content provided by the user and confirm:

• Continuation starting point (which sentence/scene to continue from)
• Continuation length (word count or chapter count)
• Any specific directional requirements (e.g., "put the protagonist in danger", "introduce a new antagonist")

2. Analyze the Original

Quickly outline and inform the user:

• Current plot node
• Main character status
• Existing foreshadowing
• Suggested continuation direction (if not specified by the user)

3. Execute Continuation

Output the continuation content, noting:

• Begin naturally from where the original left off
• Maintain consistent narrative perspective and tense
• Match the writing style of the original

4. Output Format

- Current node: xxx

Notes

• Do not rewrite existing content; only create subsequent text
• Do not contradict established facts and settings from the original
• Preserve the original narrative perspective (first-person/third-person) and tense
• For sensitive subject matter, handle only as literary treatment without amplifying inappropriate content
