Weekly Update

Some minor computer troubles slowed work slightly, but I made good progress regardless. The latest chapter is up to just over 5,000 words, with another 2 major scenes and 1 small scene yet to develop. Then, depending on how long those will be (one of the major ones should be an elaborate sex scene) either 1 or 2 more side scenes or to introduce Nowi and handle her introduction/first sex scene.

I'm aiming for about 15,000 words total, so the current chapter is about 1/3 complete. My goal would be to get all but the side scenes done by the end of next week, so I can make a good judge on how quickly I can push towards finishing it.

Most of my time this week was spent re-working a specific scene, and editing it to make a bit more sense, after realising that the first iteration lead into what will become the end of the chapter. The rest of it was worked on a character development/examination for Olivia (it's about time we saw a little more of our fair dancer I think).

At this stage, with how things are shaking out, it seems like it would be unfair on Nowi to squeeze her into what would become the end of the chapter. However that decision will truly be made when the rest of the current work is done.

So, for now, expect that this will be another bonus chapter (and one heavy on both smut and character development- best of both worlds) but it could possibly be a Nowi chapter. I'll keep you up to date.

Also: I've been thinking of renaming the Bonus Chapters as "Paralogues". What do you think? Seems like a fun naming scheme.

...And also gives the possibility of Xenologues later on... Whatever could they be...?

Otherwise, this is the first week this Patreon is out and while I want my updates to mostly focus on story development, I do want to take a moment to exend a huge thanks to all of you reading this right now. The fact that you've believed in this story and want to support it, want to help make it better and come out more frequently, it's truly, truly humbling and means the world to me.

Thank you.
