"Volaro answered, “The southeastern side" - should this be the southwestern side instead? They were discussing the southwestern side both before and after this with no other mention of the southeast, seems like it might have been a mistake?

"Sure, Al was rather bad at magic, but Erick certainly wasn’t a normal student." - should this read "Sure, Al was rather bad at *teaching* magic" ?

Gaia Octavia Seizure

You are absolutely amazing, thank you so much, you have made my geeky little heart incredibly happy!

Added another map in #maps! an updated Veird. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/782771420643459113/1010691065528975493/LitRPG_veird.jpg

I migh be pushing my luck here, but since you so kindly replied I might as well ask. I've looked through the maps on the discord and they are fantastic, but there are a few places I've always wondered where they were located that aren't marked on the maps. Any chance of an update of the Glaquin map that shows where Ar'cosmos (or at least the twisted vision) and Treehome are? And potentially on the world map it would be great to know where the enduring forge was, and we've heard lots about Eidolon, but no idea which part of Nergal it is. And we've heard about the Ar’Civ River on Quintlan twice in the last chapter. I guess I'm just a map geek am insatiably curious about how this world all fits together lol

Gaia Octavia Seizure

Thank you so much! I only just joined the patreon (having binged the entire story in a frenzy on RR) and hadn't checked out the discord yet. That is super helpful, and makes it all make more sense

Gaia Octavia Seizure

There is a map on the discord. you should have access as a patron. if you do not wish to look there then you might be able to see this; it is as of chapter 200: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/782771420643459113/995597479716327434/unknown.png

Possibly a disaster, but maybe Erick could teach Quilatalap some benevolence magic which would allow him some foresight as when teaching someone some particular piece of necromancy would lead to disaster for the world and prevent further lifebinder situations. Plus Quilatalap is powerful enough in his own right that Erick wouldn't have to have the same ethical worries that he does around consent with most other people around him who are largely under his power and thus make any kind of relationship problematic. He can just get that undead boning he really needs : )

Is there any chance of just a very rough map of the layout of the gate district? And maybe once the new cities are established of the lake and how candlepoint, the gate district and the new cities relate to each other? I'm quite a visual learner and I'm struggling a bit with the descriptions of how everything is laid out in relation to everything else, and quite how the embassies, gate road, financial district, and house benevolence would look

Well he is a paradox wizard, of anyone can make a dragon without all the negative traits it would be him. A paradoxically undragonlike dragon.

Foxmoor Fiction

Tsula: It's the dragon part that's the problem. All dragons seem to be territorial, materialistic, and greedy, and they have rage problems. We know that Paradox'ed dragons avoid much of the Dragon curse but it's still a major change to personality. Even worse, it is inheritable. As in, if Erick ever had more kids, they'd get it, too.

John Anastacio

Arcs…you’re torturing us with almost a yes to benevolence dragons and then a no to benevolence dragons. So next week maybe yes benevolence dragons? Pretty please.

spatial magic does not work in the underworld because that is where Melemizargo has decided to prevent such magic from working, just as the Shades of Ar'Kendrithyst can prevent people from teleporting, too. the way that this prevention works is all about ensuring that fights happen, instead of allowing people to bypass monsters, or to escape from fights. this is done because Melemizargo hates the wrought, and he locks them down. this is how it has always been, since the beginning of the story.

Arcs

I thought spatial magic didn’t work right in the underworld because of gravity and the cleansed mana streams interfering with the script’s automation process. Was this a reference to melemizargo messing up the formation and structure of the underworld, thus leading to the current state of affairs, or is there some other way he is influencing this?

Rebecca

because the curse keeps dragons from taking over the world and fighting over everything until nothing is left dragons don't need to eat people to polymorph into a new form.

Arcs

Why doesn't rozetta want to fix the dragon curse? And was silverite sacrificing people to Al so he could get a new form?

Gardor

Brutal

Josh

Actually, the fact that he is a protean might be part of the solution, considering it seems to come with a form of superior shapeahifting

Foxmoor Fiction

Would it change his personality after he paradoxes to benevolence though? He IS benevolence, magically speaking. So one would think benevolence would make dragons more like Erick.

Tsula

Erick would also have to change his body and personality and everything by taking on Dragon Essence. It would be a major change for him after just a few months of being Protean. I wouldn't want to do that myself.

John Anastacio

Gonna be a very long week… tftc!

Robbs

I too would like to see Erick the dragon. It probably won't happen, but maybe Rozeta's solution will get us there? Heh His main problem with the "become a dragon" path seemed to be bending to that fae who will not be named. Unless I misread.

Tsula

Ah yes, have to love Eric. All people opposed to me summoning the devil now? Ah... Looks like I will do that later. Also, very sad about the dragon bit. I want Eric to become a dragon.

Foxmoor Fiction

Quilatalap and Erick in the same zip code is a recipe for disaster. Erick has a deep desire, almost a compulsion, to help people, meanwhile Quilatalap has a pathological need to teach while also being apparently incapable of telling when he really shouldn't. Thankfully, Erick's otherwise self-destructive tendency towards introspection assists in (sometimes) preventing him from helping when he shouldn't; Quilatalap seems more like he just acknowledges the fact he sucks at determining when and what to teach but has yet to make any effort to actually change that fact about himself. Though, combining [Reincarnation] and [True Resurrection] into a single spell seems very interesting. Add in a Phylactery spell and Erick might be as unkillable as Fairy Moon.

NOOOOO THE CLIIIIIFFFFFF

luxrus

Yeah more Quinatalap would be awesome, didn't get enough of him last time

tibbish

Looking forward to future quintalap interactions

s476

Great chapter. Very cool to see Quintalap and Al come back into the story. Makes a lot of sense as probably the two people Erik has come closest to falling in love with. So we get a chapter about how everyone is horny and/or pining, and then we see the eligible bachelors with all their baggage. Nice.

Ano Ano

Hmm, he does still have that boon from Rozeta, would he use it for this?

Tsula

thanks for the chapter 'can’t even do attempt' <- missing something 'all you ever do it end' <- missing something

Corwin Amber

Thanks, I always look forward to a new chapter! :)

MushroomCat

Wildly off topic, but I've been thinking about Melemizargo and the shades. Between Priestess as a shade Melemizargo can bring back whenever he wants, and his resurrection of Queen at Shadow's Feast, I won't be surprised if he can bring back ANY shade he wants whenever he wants. The problem for him isn't magical, it's just a question of if he wants to resurrect a 'failure', because dying is usually a fail state for 'being a good shade'.
