Chapter 231 - Red Times Two

If I do change the chapter end point, I'll be pulling the Katya chapter out of sequence and placing it as the first chapter in this arc. This would be chapter two.

Chapter 229 - Delve Deeper

There hasn't yet been a human society that didn't play games. I don't expect magical ones that have crossed space to be any different in that regard.

There's an obvious place to go when Serenity needs time to do things!

Chapter 223 - A New Day

Welcome to Arc 5!

This arc starts off slowly and quietly, completely unlike the last arc. I probably could have included the next few chapters at the end of the previous arc, but I think cutt...

Appendix 9 - Author Commentary on Arc 4

Well, that was a ride, wasn’t it? It reminded me a bit of a rollercoaster.

This arc did a (generally) better job of following the original plan than Braving the Necropolis (recentl...

Appendix 8 - Character List and Status

This time I've added a Quest List at the end. It's only the formal Voice-assigned Quests (at least for now).

Chapter 219 - Worm Infestation

I really should have mentioned it earlier, but since I didn’t - the correct pronoun for a Hegemon Worm (such as the Queen) is “it.” More than one Hegemon Worm (such as an “individual colony...

Chapter 218 - Working Around Restrictions

The problem this time isn’t really his opponent (though his opponent thinks it’s a problem); no, it’s the restrictions Serenity is under for the fight, which tilt the battlefield towards the ...

I thought about writing up the ritual itself, but Serenity doesn’t take it entirely seriously, so I figured that giving you his breakdown of what he thought about it would fit better. This is wha...
