bedlam boundary - 24.28
Chapter soars from island to island on wings of canvas stretched between bamboo rods, stealing fruit from the gods and iron from the earth.

Epub version of the chapter is also attached below!
And we're back! Welcome, dear readers! Thank you for all your patience and support; behind the scenes, the new schedule is going well, and I am rapidly and steadily drawing comfortably ahead - the next chapter is actually already finished (though not yet edited) at the time of making this post, so, yay! Things are going according to plan!
Meanwhile, Heather braces for the fallout (literally???) of the Eye's revelations. What changes strike the dream at the opening of this final, total, true insight? Does the sky widen as a gaze, or is the ground to open up and swallow reality? Hopefully neither! Here we go!
And! I have more delightful fanart to share with you all, from over on the discord! First up we have 'Descent', by Ardis, which is animated pixel art (gosh!) of Heather and the Governor descending the stairwell into the archives, with a certain sister in the background. And then there's also this very amusing little comic, by Yootie, depicting a certain dialogue exchange from waaaay back in arc 11! I know I say this this often, but I'm just endlessly amazed and flattered by all the incredible fanart. Thank you all so much!

Who would win, Yellow Dad's Dad Jokes or Eileen's puns?
They should have a competition, and in doing so, accidentally lay waste to several dimensions with the clashing of puns and dad jokes.
Ok this is lowkey one of the most cathartic chapters I've read. Thank you, good post.
Ah! Thank you so much! I'm really happy with how well this went, everything with Eileen has been the culmination of so many themes building up across the story so far. And you're very welcome indeed! Glad you enjoyed this!
No one is allowed to hurt momma Eileen! We still need an entire arc of mommy daughter bonding time! Maybe she can finally teach Heather the maths without it hurting too much. She can help with progressing her abysmal transformations. They need to bake cookies together!
Also, calling it now, but Maisy is probably the one in charge now, and I am all for it.
Eileen and puns are a great part of the story!
spoiler there is also someone else(?) who is now in charge of the dream.
