Right, the map that was promised. The Imperium has abandoned Corespur to Slaanesh, retrenching itself in Zel'harst and the Port of Lost Souls. Xelian being quite dead now, the last three realms in beige have been seized by the remaining Craftworld armies, which joyously use the Drukhari population as cannon fodder against the humans and/or the daemonettes.
Old City, courtesy of the Queen of Blades has few things living in it anymore. Vect dealt the fatal blows to Low Commorragh and Sec ...

BLAM!
Your attention please. Public order on this planet will be restored very soon, by order of His Most Holy Majesty's Inquisition. Please stay in confinement while the Imperial Guard and the Living Saint eliminates the heretics who dare sully with their presence this world.
Any attempt to resist will be met with overwhelming force.
The Emperor protects.
2020-04-03 08:17:49 +0000 UTC View PostA larger section of the chapter I'm busy writing, for the last update of this month of March 2020. The schedule holds, so the complete chapter should be finished by April 5...hopefully.
I hope the last POV will satisfy the curiosity of some readers as to what happens when a certain someone finally decides to fight seriously...
2020-03-31 07:09:48 +0000 UTC View PostIt is a bit late in the month, but here is the corrected version of Chapter 68 for The Odds were never in my favour. I will post it tomorrow on ff.net.
Oh and work continues on the Weaver Option. I've definitely reached the half of the chapter...which is a relief, since I've passed the 20000 mark.
2020-03-28 15:37:43 +0000 UTC View PostThis teaser has the first 5000 words of the next chapter of the Extermination Arc. It answers a critical question: have the Black Templars remembered something worthwhile from Taylor's conversation after the Battle of the Death Star? It will also begin to lay down the issue 'will they learn the good lessons of the Battle of Commorragh?'
This part is the last light in the darkness. The escalation is going out of control, and from then the title of the chapter is going to be incredibly ju...
2020-03-26 08:13:38 +0000 UTC View PostIt took a lot of work, but at long last the chapter is finally completed. Of course that means I am going to have to work on another one...ah, well.
Enjoy!
2020-03-22 08:40:07 +0000 UTC View PostThis is chapter 31 of the Dance is not Over. I have completed it as per schedule.
Concerning the other stories, I have decided to return to the Weaver Option, though in one day or two says the beta should be back (international context has been hell on the plans of a lot of people) and it will take me one or two day to correct it.
But at the latest by Monday, I will have posted Extermination 8-2 and Extermination 8-3 will be started...and I have a lot of terrible and brilliant ide...
2020-03-19 10:49:28 +0000 UTC View PostJust something I wanted to write once I had finished the writing on The odds were never in my favour. I will begin the Dance is not Over writing tomorrow.
2020-03-15 16:28:10 +0000 UTC View PostAfter some brainstorming, I've decided to write first on The odds were never in my favour this week, and then I will probably do a Dance is not Over chapter once I've finished it.
And after...well, we will see...

The situation in the Commorragh War Zone by the end of Hell or Commorragh. The sub-realms which have fallen to Slaanesh forces are in pink-purple.
As Dynast Kraillach and Yllithian are a bit unable to give commands, their two Dynasties' positions have collapsed.
However, the red colour is very misleading. Many forces are obeying only Xelian because there's no good alternative, and Utar'ragh is also under heavy Imperial assault.
Black is now for Vect forces (save Aelindrach w...
2020-03-08 15:32:01 +0000 UTC View PostOkay, here is the new chapter of the Weaver Option. As usual, no spoilers on the discussion threads until the betas have completed their work. Which promises to take a while, with this chapter being 43000 words long.
This is the tale of a battle fought in the lair of the Drukhari slavers.
This is the story of continual Escalation.
There is only the screams of dying xenos and the shrieks of anger of evil gods.
This is Hell or Commorragh.
This update gives you, dear readers, the 20000 first words of Extermination 8-2. Writing is progressing well, I think I will have finished it in...roughly a week. My thoughts this was probably going to be the biggest chapter to date appear to have been fully confirmed.
Please note the escalation continue...and the war for Commorragh begin to take even more catastrophic proportions...
Enjoy!
I've been able to advance well in three days, therefore there's a weekend teaser of 3000 words to reward all the patrons!
Of course I'm still very far, far from completion. As I mentioned yesterday, I have the structure of the chapter played out, and plenty of writing ahead of me. I'm close to 10000 words now, and I can say have reached a third of the final destination...well nothing but charge into the breach, I guess. The Emperor Protects!
2020-02-23 18:09:17 +0000 UTC View PostThis is chapter 67 of the Odds were never in my favour, which will be I think posted tomorrow. I have started writing on the next chapter of the Weaver Option yesterday, and for the moment it's progressing well as I have more or less determined where every POV is going to be and the introduction.
I intend to write a lot of it before the end of the month. Unsure when I will finish it, I have so many things to introduce...
2020-02-22 12:36:01 +0000 UTC View PostI've spent most of the day (with a rest when there was some biathlon on TV) but Extermination 8-1 The Port of Lost Souls is at last complete and fully corrected. It will be posted in a few hours on the other websites.
I will begin writing the next chapter on Friday I think, the time to finish some writing on Harry Potter, answer all the reviews and of course dealing with all sort of real life stuff...

Trevayne has finished correcting the last chapter, and I hope Thanathos will send me his part of the betaing soon.
So waiting for the final draft, the map of Commorragh 80 hours before the Mark of Commorragh. Port Carmine has been incinerated, the outer defences of the Dark City have fallen. Plenty of tunnel-gates have also been disabled or exploded.
2020-02-15 09:36:43 +0000 UTC View PostI have finished writing chapter 30 of the Dance is not Over. I'm going to begin writing Harry Potter stuff tomorrow, plus I'm correcting as it goes the beta-ing of the Weaver Option one of my correctors is sending me. As real life is busy too, this should keep me busy until the 19 or the 20. Then I will begin Hell or Commorragh...
2020-02-13 10:05:37 +0000 UTC View PostThis is the chapter 67 of The Odds were never in my favour, unbetaed. The title is Sports and Quill.
2020-02-09 17:45:44 +0000 UTC View PostFair warning, this chapter is...extremely violent. The Battle of Commorragh has come, and no side is interested in offering quarter. Plus the Port of Lost Souls is, for all intent and purposes, a slaver port where most of the Dark Eldar are busy torturing and enjoying the suffering of billions.
The Webway is at war. And Taylor and the forces of Operation Caribbean have thrown the gauntlet.
Pray the God-Emperor and go to the battle-stations.
Commorragh must burn...

As Mordart noticed, I kept the wrong legend for the Iron Sector, so here is the map with the correct allegiances, with the Sectors nominally sworn to Aegon in red, and the yellow ones serving King Joffrey.
2020-02-01 20:19:28 +0000 UTC View PostAs promised, I have a proper update for my lovely readers. These are the first 13000+ words of Extermination 8-1 The Port of Lost Souls. I am a bit more advanced than that in my writing of course (18000 words), but one might say this should be at least...let's say 35-40% of the final (unbetaed) chapter.
Fair warning: it begins in violence, and ends in violence. There is no peace in Commorragh, only an eternity of carnage, and the endless bark of the macro-cannons...

And the map of the Vale Sector, where Aegon's loyalists have been extinguished and the Blackfyre-Arryn war continues.

Here is the new Iron Sector map, after the end of the Battle of Pyke. As you may no doubt have noticed, the Sector has shrunk quite a bit, despite many heroic sacrifices for the sake of the living.

The red colour is to symbolise the sub-realms and Gates under the control of Dynast Xelian.
The blue colour is for Dynast Kraillach, who controls the Blue Sun forces.
The grey is for Dynast Yllithian, who controls the White Sun fleets and armies.
Areas and lines in blacks denote the ...

2020-01-24 19:26:05 +0000 UTC View PostI have, after a lot of writing, finished the chapter of Let the Galaxy Burn, which ends the War of the Ten Warlords Arc.
There will be a few more maps in the next days to illustrate the situation in the Vale and Reach Sector.
After that, as promised, I will begin writing on the Weaver Option and Arc 8. I think I will be largely ready by Monday to begin what is going to be an ungodly amount of escalation...
