Brain Explosions

So, this solar flare pretty much depicts how my brain feels when the characters of the Writing Project take a unanimous vote, (without inviting me), to turn the project into a five-book series. It was arduous enough with four, but now five!?!?!? Gods above and below! Maybe I will become a serial killer if only to save my brain from such surprises.
Not really. I actually did suspect that this would happen when some of the important characters began their growth spurts on the late end. And this is to be expected when writing intuitively and allowing the characters to find their own ways rather than try to control them.
So, for those of you who may be curious as to what the books will be titled, here goes: Illusion, Presence of Mind, Sanctuary, Communion, Release. All under the series title, False Faces. Also, if any of you are wondering why those titles for a, (loosely defined), SciFi story, then think upon the Eastern forms of spiritual philosophy. Not all is as it seems and what seems to be all is, in fact, nothing while holding within everything.
How very Zen.
