You know, I really don't thank you people enough for the support. Like I'll say thanks for people who leave ratings and whatnot on the main site and mentally inc...

Chapter 88: Trust?

Sorry this got out even later than I expected. It seems traveling wore me out more than I thought and I ended up sleeping half the day. Still, I think I have some pretty good moments worth the wait...

Chapter 87: Day's end

Just to let you know I'll be traveling the next 4 days and I don't know how much writing I will get done during that. I almost had enough written a few weeks ago that this wouldn't be a problem but...

Chapter 84: Yet another hunt

So apparently I already made up the name "Syranthuse" from last chapter just 4 chapters prior, but for a plant rather than a kingdom. How embarrassing. Apparently my ability to come up with fantasy...

Chapter 83: Persuasions of Corporeal Peril

So there are five different gangs mentioned in this chapters, and I only bothered to name the three most important ones. Rather than admitting to laziness though, I figured I'd make it a patreon be...

Chapter 81: Home for the weekend

My psychology is weird. I found the 5 day schedule way less stressful/ draining than the once a week one.

Chapter 78: Societal collapse? Yes please!

So I've met middling success in my goal of picking up the pace, in part due to losing a day from a medical thing that I get sometimes. As such, my new plan is to post another chapter this week some...

Chapter 77: The obvious consequence

First thing, I've changed the name of the imperial family to Hallenhal because it sounds better while keeping my obvious faux etymology.

Second thing, I think I have a good idea of where I wa...

Chapter 76: A slight misunderstanding

Sorry this got out a bit late again. I've been sick this past week, which put a damper on my hope to move back to a twice a week schedule. Hopefully next week I can manage it, though this one is un...

Chapter 75

Sorry I got this to you later than I hoped. It's kinda frustrating that this is like the third time where I thought I might be able to pick the pace back up, only to immediately get sick.

Chapter 74: Class selection

Rejoice, I might finally be moving back to twice weekly. Though no promises. This chapter was easier to write than most since the first half is just Malz analyzing options, which I know some people...

Chapter 67: I said Ad Hoc when I meant a priori. Not a major change, but an embarrassing one.

Chapter 71.5: Walk and Talk (bonus chapter)

So this scene is too short to be a chapter and too long to be tacked onto what comes next, so I thought I'd have a bonus chapter. Really it works out since it acts like an epilogue for the last fou...

On my writing 1: Cliffhangers

So writing about my thoughts on writing has been something I've been thinking about doing for a while, and finally decided this would be the best place for it. Hopefully you find it interesting. If...

Slowing down

So last chapter was a bit of a transition point (a literal liminal rite). As such I need to slow down a bit to flesh out my plans for what happens next. Really, it took way to long to get to this p...
