Alright ya'll I need help. As you know,  I have been reading the best piece of fiction I've ever read. Kagurabachi. It's simply peak. Now I'm wondering if the first few chapters should be about Subaru's adventures in Kararagi before the start of Arc 1. Now the order I plan on doing things is something like this, Subaru just got done killing the slave traders in the first chapter. Second chapter will be focused on him on saving more slaves as the months pass. Maybe him encountering Halibel before encountering the Iron Fang. And finally, him encountering Zarestia. Now if he did encounter Zarestia and decided I decided to make her his contracted spirit instead of Beatrice? How would that impact the story?

Would there even be a way to get Beatrice to be his spirit as well? Considering that her contract states that you can't have more then one spirit if you already have her as a contracted spirit.

I'm stuck here man.

Beako?

Or Zarestia?

Or just both?
