THIS IS... not ALL of chapter 8 part 2. there is ONE MORE SECTION, but i ran out of time before i could make it. the reason is... i spent a lot of time on sidequests, and the setpiece at the end of this build. but i'm very proud of what's here, so i'm happy to share it!!!!!!
i'm going to be pretty busy next month, so i'm scheduling the public build for JANUARY 12TH. hoping i can make it... because if i delay, it'll end up taking a really long time and i don't want that....

i'm planning to open asks on my site after the treat update is out (GETTING CLOSE NOW) but since it's christmas i'm gonna relax a little bit and do something fun (ok working on treat is fun too tho)
the one thing i'm not sure about is whether i want to just respond in comments or make a new post with all the questions/answers in one place... i guess i can do both.
