October $5+ Reward - The Elven Maid (Part 5)
Added 2018-11-03 03:29:35 +0000 UTCWhew! Made it by when I said I would at least. I wasn't sure I was going to there for a bit, as this part turned out to be in excess of 7,000 words, like the previous update. And that without actually getting everything into it that I wanted to. We're starting to enter a portion of the novel that is setting up a lot of plot components, so there was a lot I wanted to cram in. Eventually, I acknowledged that I wasn't going to manage all of it though, and set some of it aside for inclusion in the next update.
Now, only three of you voted in the polls regarding direction of the novel...and every single person who DID vote, voted the exact same way. So hopefully everyone is happy with the results! Those results being that, yes, Alex and Riveria are going to be involved with Galyn as well and Galyn is going to use a somewhat more romantic focus for his efforts with Elora (see the polls for more detail!). Only a little bit of both those things is starting to be seen in this part...but the setup for both has been officially worked in with this release. I hope everyone enjoys it! My apologies again for it being two days late...hopefully the size of both this part of the novel and the Eros update make up for that somewhat :-).
