Thought I'd check in with everyone

Since the first book of The Aeternus Universe is complete, I figured it's time that I touch base with my fans and ask what they think about the content on Patreon so far. 

Let me know if there is something you want to talk to me about 1 on 1 with personal messages. 

Thanks everyone!

Graduation Day II (Page 111)

~~~(POV: Ulysses Kennedy)~~~

~~~(Date: May 10th, 2026)~~~

~~~(Location: Favorite Park, Holden, Oregon)~~~

~~~(Time: 7:33 AM)~~~

The net makes a crisp swish when I sink my shot. The temperature is rising in tandem with the sun. There aren't people watching me from vehicles across the street since it's still really early. No one has arrived yet.

Moments like these... Where I'm not being watched by NBA scouts and reporters is nice. But since the NBA Draft is so clos...

SCORPIO and I have made it back to my ship, and this is where she's going to tell me everything I need and want to know about The Star Cabal. I'm so close to finishing this chapter in my life, and I'll be able to focus on other things.

Von Jaric Larids Raid II (Page 88)

~~~(Time: 1:20 AM)~~~

What I know about Von Jaric Larids Raid is extensive... To say the least... I know all the mechanics of the Raid and where all the bosses are. Hidden or directly leading to the Vampire known as Von Jaric Larid.

Raids differ based on which ones you're doing, and that's something that people grow to love about Libertas. ...

These past 4 months have been crazy, and I pretty much visited every single team in the NBA. The top 14 picks in this year's NBA draft will be decided on the 17th of this month, and everyone will see who really gets the First Pick in the draft.

Warning about The Aeternus Universe (Good News Actually)

Today is the final chapter/page for The First Book of The Aeternus Universe. And it's setting up the next stage of the story.

But before I start writing for book 2, I'll be taking a break from The Aeternus Universe, and I'll be busy thinking about the overall story for the second book before I start writing anything.

While The Aeternus Universe is a tremendous success, there are things I could've done better. And that's what I'm going to do with book 2.

Making A Pivotal Decision (Page 102)

~~~(POV: Nathan Opal)~~~

~~~(Location: Treasure Vaults of the Rakata, Belsavis)~~~

SCORPIO continues to lead, and I swiftly deal with any old droids caught in the path. A lot has gone through my mind since we started walking these dark tunnels. Thoughts to pass the time... Most of what I think about are choices that I have.

There are so many decisions to make, and I don't know how much time I have until the events of this era of Star Wars escalate. That's something the games...

My alarm goes off, and I force myself out of bed. I had a hard time falling asleep last night after what happened between Ulysses and me. It's difficult to function when sexual tension is very high. But today is the day we're heading back home.

I've come to a decision

It seems like a lot of people really don't care for ExTOL. 

So I'll be switching back to A Chance Again. It was fun to try out the story, but it's clear that A Chance Again is preferred over it by a large amount.

Starting next upload for The Aeternus Universe, A Chance Again will be uploaded with it like it was before.

Update regarding A Chance Again and ExTOL

Instead of going all the way to 25 chapter with ExTOL, I'll be going to 15 instead.

When I reach that mark, I'll pause writing for that story, and I'll start writing for A Chance Again.

A Chance Again will go on for 30-40 chapters before I switch back to ExTOL for another 15.
