HTG Poll

Dear Patrons,

I hope you're doing well! Exciting times, HTG scored higher than ROD for the polls, which means for the next few months it will start getting bonus chapters every so often. Once ROD is past book three, and my contract is fulfilled, we can change the schedule a little more if the polls are still skewed towards HTG. For now I think the normal schedule will be good with the bonus chapters.

Okay so, the poll is about whether book three of HTG should end here, or if the...

HTG / Updated Chapter 163

Dear Patrons,

This is just to let HTG readers know that I added a segment onto Luna's last POV chapter. Roughly 500 words or so. Please give it a read before you read the latest chapter (releasing shortly after this post), it will help smooth the transition for the following chapter which is a Dargo POV.

Thank you!

Respectfully,

Godric

I hope you're doing well!

Progress is moving smoothly on the HTG Book one edit. The next chapter release will be Monday and it will be the normal 5-6 chapters per week.

This is a special post to decide the posting schedule for the books. Last time we did it, the poll was basically 50/50 for ROD and HTG.

Please take a moment to vote for which one you want to see more of. Your opinion helps me decide the schedule.

Respectfully,

Chapter Ninety-Eight – Chaos Emporium – Part One

There is a rule that most will not heed. Never meet your heroes unless you want to experience the folly of expectations. This rule is doubly so for your gods, we will always disappoint your expectations… just as you disappoint ours. Such is nature’s truth for those who cling to expectations. Want naught, disappoint naught.

We have confirmation of the individual who is categorized as the UWO’s upcoming hero. However there seems to be some misdirection, as they have downgraded their security detail considerably.

The subject in question appears to be doing a Respec Quest, given the number of people that disappeared with them. How would y...
