Also, I wanted to say thank you to everyone who has been so supportive for so long. I think I'm just getting out of a really dark place mentally, but it's been rough these past two or so months. Reordering schedule and exercising more has helped.
It's a simple truth, but writing is no...

I agree that the placement was poor. The problem was just I didn't want to let anymore time pass before moving to the second part of Naffur's story. So, here you go. I'll reorder eventually so it's not so abrupt.
Quick as a flash, Naffur was back on his feet and ja...

It was supposed to be so easy, Naffur Suite reflected. He was shaking.
In order to pay off his debts, he had taken a job for the Haveheights to help rob the Manhattan Building. During the monthly Lottery, where a lucky few would get the chance to audition before the elites of the Orch...

“Fucking 2000!??!” Randidly bellowed.
The surgeon patted his shoulder absently. “Worry not, the larger pieces are already removed. This would be easier if you could lower your natural toughness, eh? Just how high is your Endurance, anyway?”
Randidly didn’t bother to an...

Silo kept his mouth shut once the group had gotten into the small canoe after the fight with the Propagator. His instincts screamed for him to encourage the others. He had thought himself the leader of this team, and therefore it was his role.
But…
It took quite a lot of time ...

Okay, Lucretia all caught back up for now.
In her gaze, the condescending face of the Autarch was all that remained. Her body was dust, her personality...

“Sir, I think… I shouldn’t be deconstructed.”
This made the Autarch pause. Immediately, the strange instinctual compulsion to approach him disappeared. Thoughtfully, he regarded her and cracked his knuckles. Only after he had cracked every single finger did he speak. And then,...

End of this chapter may look familiar, but hopefully we have a different feel to what is going on. And while there are still some questions left, hopefully this is a better arc for Lucretia. I'll finish this tomorrow.

Woo, rewriting took longer than I thought. For those that haven't read already, the end of 641 and all of 642 have been changed.

I've actually thought a lot about the reaction to the sudden switch for Lucretia, and that one is on me guys. My bad.
Spent today re outlining the short term arc to address the issue. I don't think the two identities are as far from each other as you'd think, but it requires more text. The goal is...

The man walked calmly across the dusty battleground. His chainmail armor was spattered with the juices of deceased Wights. There were other people scavenging amongst the remnants of the bodies here, but all of them gave him a wide berth. After all, they had come only after the battle here w...

“There it is,” The Captain announced proudly from the edge of the skyship. “Come take a look.”
Drake considered not doing that. But ultimately, he had a mission. He was supposed to be Sydney’s sword. Part of that meant dealing with the… unpleasantness of the venue of this ...

There was a sudden explosion of smog that filled the area of the battlefield, but the Propagator didn’t bother to pursue the gene fodder that fled away from it. To its surprise, the three that had been present within its Domain survived, and had enough strength to walk away. Even the intr...

Sergeant Platton carefully schooled his expression. He couldn’t show weakness now, not while he was standing next to these three youths and the smashed remnants of his squad. Latta was dead, and with h...

After the week of battle to make it to this point and meet Sergeant Platton, the next two weeks were relatively tame and nonviolent. With Sergeant Platton and his team recovered, the focus once more shifted to reconnaissance. Slowly, the group worked its way circuitously back towards the ce...

After listening to Azriel’s short explanation, Randidly wasn’t sure what to say. The two were sitting off to the side with the rest of the group after Randidly regained enough Mana to form some of the wood from the broken boats into a seaworthy vessel. It took some ...

By the end of it, Randidly was mentally exhausted and leaned back against the ground. They were still waiting for Silo, who was now slowly recovering some distance away from them after using the corrupted Aether source.

Originally, I was thinking I would do two Drake and then two Jaffur, but Drake took three. So probably some more Randidly, and then we will move further through Jaffur's antics. Trying to cut down on abrupt POV shifts.
