Chapter 394: Interlude - Hekthorn
I've spent the last five days writing four chapters. With a bit of breathing room now, and after reading the feedback on Discord, I've concluded that posting multiple chapters at once and then disappearing for five/six days is a bad idea.So, the upcoming schedule is as follows: one chapter per day for the next four days, then one chapter every two days (sometimes three). With the backlog I...
