Tom vs Horns Runoff Poll.
Added 2024-09-02 07:56:00 +0000 UTCThank you for messages and understanding. Chapter still ETA on Saturday, and I am still going through the phases. But the poll chapter will be whenever I return to writing TWI.
I saw it was a tie. It has been tried once before.
This time it's a runoff. Tom vs Horns.
If they tie again, the Silver Swords win by default.
More information provided.
Heroes and Hraace -- What makes a hero? The Hero of Zethe knows, and so do the Heromakers of Hraace. If I can swing it, this will reveal the truth of [Heroes], and continue the Horns arc. Might have to split it between Doubte and Horns.
The plan is for old and new characters to gather and train. Faces you might not expect coming together. The Horns are beginning their tour and not only does this concern [Heroes], but aspiring heroes...and those who ferry legends around, and those seeking to surpass their predecessors. But what will the Heromakers make of the Horns?
The Clown Rises -- It's him. He's on Baleros with a new mission. Only something may be wrong. Even for Tom.
Heroes abound in both options. The Blighted Kingdom has little reach where Tom is, but they do have enemies. The poll is Tom vs the Horns. Reality is Tom...versus some Horns. Or anyone else between him and his target. And when people hear of a crazy clown running around, one group might recognize that as a bit familiar.
Am tired. Will try to sleep more. Vote well.

I mean, I side with the Deaths too. I'm interested in seeing if the "heroes" ever figure out what's really going on, and how they handle that realization, you know? Tom already get that it's all a "joke" but no one is really going to listen to him. Also apparently there are a *thousand* earthers in Rhir now, and I'm intensely curious to see what THAT looks like.

2024-10-06 04:21:00 +0000 UTCI'm not sure what it is but I just can't bring myself to really care for Tom or any of the "heroes" on Rhir. I think it's because my mind has sided with the Deaths already?

2024-09-12 21:02:36 +0000 UTCOh bet. Forgot that.
BearerOfDoom
2024-09-08 01:50:28 +0000 UTCUhhh Lyonette bought them and the horns never really sold them they just passed them along to the gem adventure (former miners) group and she bought them off them and were used upon the entrance of tavoluca before the whole gambling trap
RedGoblin
2024-09-08 01:48:36 +0000 UTCI really wish Tom had won this poll. Just to see what a book 10 Tom's current class and level is along with his skills. Maybe even a few of those system rewarded titles/skills/items. Maybe with the potion shortage he'll even have some sort of healing factor by this point? 🤔 I also wonder who bought those madness runes from the horns??? Maybe the blighted kingdom??

2024-09-07 22:43:29 +0000 UTCI thought all you had to do was summon Earthers to Rhir :p
RedGoblin
2024-09-07 22:33:18 +0000 UTCThe Clown Campaign is so funny to read in the comments. I agree, I just like the Horns more, plus we finally find out what makes [Heroes]
Zino Canlapan
2024-09-07 21:44:51 +0000 UTCSomeday I really hope we get Tom again. He is a different viewpoint in the world that no one else really drives.
Nate Gartner
2024-09-05 03:55:07 +0000 UTCAnd soon we won't be seeing him for this volume either :(
Arwen Lostlorn
2024-09-04 15:42:04 +0000 UTCComeOn guys we haven't seen the Clown in like THREE VOLUMES
Chargcake
2024-09-04 15:16:17 +0000 UTCYeah but ever since that encounter with erin i would assume that knight guy questioned (mentally) what they were fighting for… for all we know they were sent to kill a goblin lord ally… and that was erin but ofcourse they didn’t know hope we get tom and more Rhir :(
RedGoblin
2024-09-04 03:42:21 +0000 UTCI do like the clown but it seems he is the only Rhir Earther who has seen the "Hans are we the baddies?" meme.
HumptyDumpty
2024-09-04 02:34:03 +0000 UTCYea as far as I'm concerned if The Horns are in the poll they win, only other thing I'd vote above them would be something to do with Halrac, a training arc with the horns learning the truth about hero's is a no-contest for me, why even bother polling lol.
Zack
2024-09-03 20:01:24 +0000 UTCNow that we only get 3 chapters a month. I definitely don’t want to waste one on the clown.
Anonymous
2024-09-03 19:12:25 +0000 UTCIt could be the Silver Swords still then

2024-09-03 18:51:21 +0000 UTCThe Clown Rises: Deshi Basará plays with the drums replaced by clown honks
JumpingPotatoSack
2024-09-03 17:17:05 +0000 UTCFrom what I understood, Whatever dosent win will come in the story in a shorter version like a summary or something later. This just tells piretaba what people want to read more of when compared to others
PearsMan
2024-09-03 14:31:17 +0000 UTCIf horns win, I really hope that Tom comes in after that chapter. It’s been too long for our clown 🤡 hehehahahohohehehehe.
Blaize
2024-09-03 14:26:02 +0000 UTCI've been caught up for years, but I clearly still don't understand how this voting thing works. Are we just voting for when we get what? Surely both of these arks are vital to the overall story?
Tarc
2024-09-03 14:14:05 +0000 UTCAnother couple years with no clown it seems :(
Spenser Hilton
2024-09-03 13:27:20 +0000 UTCCome on little bit more and it's going to be a tie!!
Jonas Sarsevičius
2024-09-03 13:13:08 +0000 UTCI want both.
Hursha
2024-09-03 04:08:55 +0000 UTCClown has the MOST interesting POV!!
PcKc
2024-09-03 03:49:04 +0000 UTCI agree with you except wistram that whole arc/story should be closed and stay in the background. But enough of that chandrar beats rhir by a 1-8 margin no? We need more rhir
RedGoblin
2024-09-03 02:41:43 +0000 UTCCome on guys can we see what's going on in rhir? Does everything have to be the same characters every chapter and an update for the rest once every two years?
Dwayne Patterson
2024-09-03 01:11:18 +0000 UTCHang in there home slice!
Travis Beecher
2024-09-03 00:01:53 +0000 UTCI don't like Tom very much, so I voted for the Clown chapter in the hopes that his arc starts to pay off a little more than it has.
Steve Slota
2024-09-02 21:41:58 +0000 UTCI really love the Clown chapters and hope we learn more about the Colors( the area and creatures)! Tom is probably one of my favorite characters, I know the community struggles with him but his view, knowledge and power set scratch the Itch every time.
Jp wag
2024-09-02 21:21:15 +0000 UTCIf it is a clown chapter I will read it, but the clown is the only section of the story i will not reread, do not like it
shelby hedegaard-friend
2024-09-02 21:06:49 +0000 UTCUgh, Such a hard choice! I love the Horns, but the clown's character is so interesting! He has been the only one to see through the Blighted Kings smokescreen and realize that the "demons" are just actually people. I am so interested to see what he does when under his own power. At the same time, the bait of seeing how the system entity determines what qualifies someone to be a [Hero] is just as tantalizing! I think I am going to have to go with the clown on this one, just due to the lack of content he has, as well as the delayed gratification I'll get when the Horns chapter comes out.
Clover
2024-09-02 19:55:02 +0000 UTCI wanna know more about heroes
Carter
2024-09-02 19:32:47 +0000 UTCTHE CLOWN RISES!
Oliver Carohan
2024-09-02 18:52:01 +0000 UTCthe premise for the horns chapter sounds rather bland, but i'm still going to vote for them because they're my favorites and i trust aba to deliver that good stuff. (also not too interested in the clown or a new POV atm)
David
2024-09-02 18:46:45 +0000 UTCvote clown for a chance for them to change your mind
micchukelz
2024-09-02 18:45:56 +0000 UTCThe clown is the only character in the entire story I never want to see again. Pirate has somehow made me like every other character I started out disliking, except for the clown.
Dylan McInnes
2024-09-02 18:34:15 +0000 UTCI think we all should agree that there is no winning here and should try to tie it so we can enjoy a nice story of Ylawes and friends growing and learning together.
WESTON FRENCH
2024-09-02 18:10:00 +0000 UTCThese polls are rough because I'm going to vote for my favorites but also Pirate can write any character to be my favorite
Greg
2024-09-02 16:58:52 +0000 UTCTom was the only redeemable character from the blighted kingdom. Glad Erin cleared out some of that noise lol
Nosya Bankhead
2024-09-02 16:46:39 +0000 UTCI’m not a big fan of the clown at all but we haven’t seen him in a while compared to the horns. So that alone makes them more interesting. How impt is reading some of the horns in a training arc when we can see it in their next fight with a summary on the other stuff. Letting us explore them in better settings We could also get more Zevera love
PearsMan
2024-09-02 14:47:55 +0000 UTCHe might meet a Minotaur. They have horns
Anonymous
2024-09-02 14:43:52 +0000 UTCI've been convinced to clown around. Though horns are my favorite.
Alex Lane
2024-09-02 14:14:19 +0000 UTCI don’t like the clown. For reasons. But I do want to see more of the Dyed Lands!

2024-09-02 14:10:12 +0000 UTCAnything but the clown, lets go horns or silver swords!

2024-09-02 14:09:41 +0000 UTCdamn you clown haters
James Getgood
2024-09-02 13:32:05 +0000 UTCI refuse to vote for Tom. #Justice4TheFool #Justice4aTrueHero
Nik
2024-09-02 13:29:04 +0000 UTCAs much as I want to see The Horns, I also feel it should be noted that we haven’t gotten a Tom chapter in a WHILE now, and we have no idea how the fallout of the Eclipse has affected HIM other than hearsay and second hand accounts of second hand accounts…
Fenrir
2024-09-02 13:13:43 +0000 UTCI just want adventure go adventurers!
Valmorian
2024-09-02 12:54:57 +0000 UTC😭 why not both.
Carvel Williams
2024-09-02 12:04:36 +0000 UTCI'm for a tie. I really wanna see how the silver swords get out of their bad situation in the new lands, tbh.
Please enter your name
2024-09-02 11:52:49 +0000 UTCWait, does the spoiler mean tom will end up meeting ksmvr and vofea? Since he meets the other horns
Ram nevet
2024-09-02 11:39:41 +0000 UTCI care less about Heroes unto themselves or Clowns—though there’s hugely important lore there either way, as well information on the Blighted Kingdom’s dirty tricks. But I really want more Nawal vs Silver Killer. Will Yvlon end up with adamantium or naq-alrama arms in a competition of snark, misplaced personalities, and professional pride badly hidden behind dreadfully false humility? I haven’t the faintest idea. But I need to know.

Blue Talon
2024-09-02 11:33:23 +0000 UTCNo, not the Horns! Wait until Kmsvr and Vofea rejoin before they do the training arc! 😢
Jud
2024-09-02 11:32:58 +0000 UTCI get the horns are cool but TWI is such a large universe of characters that it doesn't make sense not to visit some of the lesser viewed perspectives. I feel like the story has gotten smaller with the focus on the Horns and the usual suspects.
Joel Williams
2024-09-02 11:32:56 +0000 UTCHm. So, this is telling me to make sure they tie. SILVER SWORDS!!!!

Blaize
2024-09-02 10:49:48 +0000 UTCTom is usually in a bad spot. If we may face a gloomy chapter then Tom is our best guide for gloom.
Kyle merwin
2024-09-02 10:45:48 +0000 UTCMy reasoning exactly.
Sameh Hammouri
2024-09-02 09:55:16 +0000 UTCSo many characters.. and so many I like. Although Tom is not my favourite one, and the Horns are amazing, but clown it must be. He’s on Baleros, Erin on Baleros.. easy choice:))
Forva
2024-09-02 09:47:36 +0000 UTCFOR TRUE [ADVENTURERS]! Poke Duo!

2024-09-02 09:42:57 +0000 UTCTom all the way.

2024-09-02 09:41:54 +0000 UTCthey've been saying there will be more tom no matter what since the last arc we got him... in volume 5

Shay Sapir
2024-09-02 08:30:43 +0000 UTCWell, the choice is between "Most likely WILL have Pisces, might have Ksmvr" vs "Might or might not have Ksmvr, most likely won't have Pisces". I'd also be good with a tie, the Swords do also have an Antinium... Iirc two of the Horns are in Baleros (Vofea ended up there, too, didn't she?), so it feels like at least a scene would make sense. And I like the other Horns more than I like Tom, so... :3

2024-09-02 08:21:53 +0000 UTCTom gets glossed over so much, he needs us. Vote for Tom 2024.
Umar Musa
2024-09-02 08:21:48 +0000 UTCTom represents a strange space where I will readily and happily read, but also where I won't voluntarily ask for more. There is an anxiety associated with the prospect of more Tom, for me, that is at least going to cause the mild avoidant behavior of voting for other options that are more comfortable to look forward to, even while I enjoy reading the often times more frought chapters involving Tom. Tom represents a very well balanced unpleasantness: one that feels well considered and carefully intentional and not merely for shock value or something simply purile. So hopefully when it's narratively time for more Tom, there will be more Tom regardless of whatever happens here.

2024-09-02 08:18:03 +0000 UTCKsmvr is in Baleros, so it is unlikely that he will be present in the chapter.

2024-09-02 08:16:46 +0000 UTCKsmvr will be in Tom’s chapter

2024-09-02 08:05:59 +0000 UTCHorns have Ksmvr, if I don't get the old ant man I'll try for the young and guy! (I love the others too but there's a special spot in my heart for any and all Antinium <3)
