The rewrite has launched! I'm queuing up all the chapters for book 1 to post on the daily. In the meantime, they're up on Patreon. While I did add two new chapters (because the Sortalheim arc really was too short for all that happened, and will happen in book 2), most of the reworking has been to change the setting enough that I convinced myself the fanfic tag is no longer deserved. While that's going on, I'll be continuity checking what I've written for book 2 and adding those chapters to the release queue as they get edited. Patreon patrons will get chapters early.

Go here for the rewritten story:

Oh, and I'll be pulling down the chapters here. That will happen no sooner than the day after this posts. I won't delete the story because I've been that reader who took time off from RoyalRoad reading (because of life and physical books my friends sent my way) only to come back and discover stories missing off my Follow List with no idea what happened to them.

Additionally, I'm posting the story I was writing when I first discovered Chatfield's "Two Week Curse", book 1 of his Ten Realms series. I haven't managed to come up with a better title than the main character's name - if you read it and like it, feel free to drop title suggestions in the comments. It's set in the world Kestra comes from and is posting here on RoyalRoad as Cerise.

On the day Cerise and her best friend Mykhal return from getting their classes, miners from their village rebel. Fearing the reaction of their liege lord, Cerise's family flee. Having no better destination in mind, they turn their steps toward the newly discovered Sea Crest Dungeon.

This story is intended to be mostly light hearted and low conflict: a feel-good, no-stress read.

Book 1 tells the story of Cerise, Mykhal, and Cerise's parents as they travel across the width of Druerjan.

I've got chapters queued up for Tuesday releases.
