This edit of Apocalypse is a bit harder than I thought. I need to make our unlikely heroes more unlikely, and by that I mean they need to struggle more. They need to be less successful.
More of them, in other words, need to die.
I don't like killing characters. Not because of sentiment; I would kill major characters if I didn't need them for the plot. I'm just bad at writing death.
But my dev editor is very, very correct. This battle is going to have to be stacked against my protagonists and people are going to have to die.
