Weekly Update - 11 September 2023
Added 2023-09-11 02:00:03 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
I'm happy to report a good week for progress this time! I managed 14,000 words, bringing the chapter's total to 61k. I'm most of the way through the Demeter version of the farewell scene, which I think is probably the one the majority of you will be getting. There's plenty of opportunities to start to reconcile (or not) with her here, and the player's responses will set the tone of the interactions with her in the sequel.
After that, I have the version that takes place with the RO/PO, for those who end up with the no-sequel version of the story, where you spend all or most of your future time on Olympus. I'm hoping to make that a satisfying end to the PC's story, since unlike the other route, this one won't be getting a sequel, so to speak (I can't well write a story about living in the Underworld if the PC isn't there most of the time, naturally, and writing a story about living on Olympus would be a completely different book).
And then it'll be onto the epilogue. I'm not yet sure enough when that will be to put a definitive date on release or anything, but I'm happy with how things are moving at the moment. This week is one where no bonus content is scheduled, so mostly I'll just be plugging away at the writing and trying to fit it in around my class schedule and homework and all that. Hopefully I'll have more good news next week.
In the meantime, I hope you all stay well. :)
