Okay so anyone remember those Neopets books they made back when Key Quest plushies first started being released?
There was one series called "The Grey Faerie Cronicles: Nomi's Quest". Only one was made in the series, and it was discontinued.
Then there was another called "The Ghoul Catchers". Two were written, called "The Creeping Danger" and "The Quest Continues". It was going to be a trilogy but was never completed either.
I don't remember much of Nomi's quest 'cause literally the last time I read it was when I was eleven years old and I lost the copy, but I still have both Ghoul Catchers books. While on a ride to the beach, I reread them, and was kinda bummed 'cause the second book leaves off with the characters going to Brightvale and Meridell to rally up fighters to fight in a big war. I was honestly a bit excited. I really wanted to know what happens next.
And as one of my mottos go, sometimes if you want something in life, you gotta do it yourself.
SO. I'd like to maybe possibly somehow write the ending. Would this be an acceptable piece in the NT? It's completely Neopets related, but you'd have to read the first two books to fully completely absolutely understand what's happening even though I would try to fill everything in...and the main way to find how what happens in the first two books is to buy them online with your own money.

Should be allowed no problem. All of NT is fanfiction anyway.
But it'd be smart to make it standalone enough that people can read your story without needing to have read the previous two stories, so what you could do is treat the original books as prequels. As in, make your story a complete whole, possibly borrowing plot points from the originals whenever understanding is necessary, and then expand on it yourself. You can also always post it on Work Reviews and Advice to get people to tell you if something's lacking or hard to understand, because chances are it's easier to see for people who haven't read those books.

I would love this! I was so sad when the original series got cancelled, especially Nomi's.
