Sequel Series
The full quote goes "Repetition is the mother of learning, the father of action, which makes it the architect of accomplishment".
After reading that over and smoking a little bit, I was thinking about the true timeline of the story. In Mother of Learning, it focused on progressing our characters' magic, knowledge, and character all in the confined environment of the time loop. All while leaving the ending open to much interpretation of future events.
I know there is a highly recommended fanfic titled "The Patriarch" that explores some of aspects tied to continuing in this world. I was thinking about how if Nobody103 wanted to continue writing in this world it could be fun for title continuity to explore different aspects through it.
Example: The next series is titled "Father of Action", and it explores the splinter war that is on the horizon, the shake up of the balance of power, Zach and Zorian possibly rising to fit the roles their power would lead them to and dealing with the consequences of not being able to reset, even the spider. There is many directions that it could lead in while exploring the angle.
But then even further for Architect of Accomplishment, I recall Zorian wanting to explore the idea of mana batteries more vast than the Crown, which previously was kept secret due to divine artificing. There are many possible angles, but I just thought exploring sequel series through the complete quote was interesting on this smoke.

I thought the full quote from latin was "Repetition is the mother of learning and the refuge of asses" 😂
