Blue and White Porcelain

Uh, I've been stuck for nearly half a year, and I'm still stuck = = I've only written a little of this story so far, and I don't know whether it'll end up abandoned. I've also started running out of time again lately... This story pretends to be about a planet in another parallel universe, but I've borrowed from and plagiarized certain historical events from our own universe and planet. Unfortunately, my knowledge is so shallow that I only have a vague understanding of a lot of things. After disguising, deleting, and adding to the plagiarized material, I also made a bunch of stuff up myself, resulting in a hodgepodge of times, places, people, and events. The whole thing is riddled with holes and pretty awful. If you spot any similarly awful plot holes, please be understanding. Since I don't have much depth as a person, this tentatively abandoned story (though I don't know if it'll end up definitely abandoned) has no theme whatsoever. If you find one, you're imagining things = = The author's character is a gamble, so readers should be cautious before taking the plunge. Since the blurb was so misleading, I'll set the record straight: this is a borderline romance story set in an imaginary dynasty, focused on skills and crafts, with romance as a secondary element. It's not a space war story ORZ Theme:
