Hello.

This isn't a cancellation, just a bit of a mild update and self-rant.

The interlude chapters. I get that the last one was the figurative straw on the camel's back. I feel that way even when uploading it. Which should have been a good indication that it wasn't the right thing to do. I'm glad that most people's opinion was that it was a good chapter, just with bad placement. Doubly so since it's been so long since a chapter with Anton & Co. So, I've been thinking about it and the final draft will have the three Qaiviel chapters here, Ivano and Janet when Anton & Co are done with Seocuria and Sally and Surdon probably during a lull when dealing with the Qiaviel Kingdom.

Next thing.

Life has become extremely busy and tiring and it'll continue for some time. That being said I, as ever, will continue to write and work as best I can. As you can already tell I'm not the fastest writer and I can easily get distracted playing a game or watching a movie. I've been looking back at how much I could have gotten done and it's quite shocking. Almost annoyingly so. It can be quite difficult to put them down when they're just a click away.

That being said the next 7 chapters are done. They still need editing and work but they're mostly written and it is following Anton & Co. Any further interludes will be thought out and planned a lot better than this previous batch.

On the subject of chapters, and thinking more about the whole interlude thing, I've told myself to rein it in when it comes to some of my more derpier moments. There's a chapter that's only purpose is to justify itself. Well, it alludes to something that's going to be about another hundred or so chapters away and everyone, including myself, will certainly have forgotten it. Appart from a little world building it really doesn't add anything to the story. And it's very hammy and like it's trying to hit you over the head with an idea. Which brings the chapters down to six but I think quality is important.

That's about it for this little rant. Hopefully, they won't be too common but I felt I needed to do this to clear up anything from that overly long interlude saga.

Thanks for taking your time and reading.
