I will obviously read to the end of the arc, but can someone help me understand the timeline? Grand Design 1 scolds Grand Design 2 after the Titan battle, but these events and their overwhelm/confusion is happening before the battle?
I was banned from the discord for no reason at all. Except I posted a out a logo i was making for a anto woke review site. I asked for feedback on the logo amd when people asked what it was for I was dumb enough to say what it was for. The next day or something I was banned. No explanation nothing the server was just gone for me. I tried contacting pirate via both email and patreon but received no response. I dodnt build my site to spread hate just to be a platform to avoid shows you didn't want to watch. Shows that forced agendas on you while sacrificing story telling and quality. For that I assume I was banned. I think the people in the discord was awesome and I had a great time there. But as soon as I even mentioned a different Viewpoint I was banned. I find tbis is how liberals operate they call people horrible tbings and lie and decide people and as soon as anyone digress they ban them. I have supported the author for many years and enjoyed their story. I still enjoy the story and try to separate the author from the work even though the author seems to hate me for just exciting and being diffrent. Anyways my site dodmt do that well anyways and seems to3have failed Anyways. Viewpointnexus is it's name I wanted to build something that was free from censorship and one sided discussions. Along with being able to see the shows you want wotg the themes you enjoy night sound a bit counterintuitive but my hope was for noth sides to be able to use it even if it was mainly for the "anti woke" crowd. I hoped ot was some overzealous mod that banned me but I guess I was wrong and only one side of the political spectrum is alowed to be discussed here sadly. I hope you guys see that you are being brainwashed to hate people under a guise of "inclusivity" but I doubt you will. Have a great day and hope everything goes well for everyone. See ya.
I feel the same.
Amazing amazing chapters! Love that you have no fear and let the story go where it wants. That’s true artistry. I’m the only one reading this story in my world (friend group) and I feel like I have a sparkly glowing star in my pocket no one but I can see. Can’t wait to see where this goes!!! 🥰💗🙌🏻👌
TYFTC! I love the craziness of the Innverse; Epic battles interspersed with yummy food and games. I came late to this party and have ignored all my other LITrpg stories, TV and video games for 2 months because I binged the entire series and caught up to the present just today. I love this series and is now my #1. Hear! Hear! On your blog on US politics and the worrying pedagogue in chief. Ignore those who try to call out the use of 'Fascism' like you are arbitrarily slinging school yard insults. If it talks only hate and misogyny like a duck, Heils Hitler like a duck and aspires to be a dictator like a duck, then it is a fucking Fascist duck (apologies to ducks).
Can't lie real world sorta sucks that's why I come here to inn world. You do you thank you for not making it a you have to read this before readinging my chapter sorta thing with the alternative link. Anyway I be spreading the WONDERING INN GOSPEL❤️ regardless of real life stuff. You are one of the only authors who can make me feel deeply about their work and I will always read and support as long as possible 💪❤️
Thanks for your wonderful writing and for speaking your mind, Pirateaba. I very much respect both.
This these made me happy and sad I got to know the sliver swords are alive and the love interests. But so much sadness I never thought I’d like Rhisveri, and I still don’t 100% but he just a sad guy trying to do what’s right granted he dosnt always know thats why I think fiffa was so important to him. How do a creature that eats his own learned about laws and rules from his “mother” There so much more I’d like to say there so much in these two that I probably end up reading twice or three times.
Here as well, thank you for speaking up.
It's starting to seem like Nothing gets solved. Everything is just getting more and more problematic. Wait for the situation to be over, and it just gets dragged.
bro the plot is progressing, just slowly. And finally we see roshal receive retribution, BK activate tom the [clown] and rhisveri beat the shit out of the future antinium.

You have my unconditional support and gratitude in these trying times.
My husband is trans. My sister has a wife. I was raised Jewish, though I am not practicing. I am also not worried. While I think Trump should be tried and locked up for the rest of his life for war crimes, that is the same for every president in my lifetime. I was told to prepare for gay concentration camps in 2016, and nothing close to it ever happened. I think the warnings of apocalypse are overblown, and discredit the causes that you support. The worst things that Trump did (the genocide in Yemen, spying on Americans, executive overreach, continuing to lock people up for victimless crimes, arming terrorists, etc.) were also done by Bush, Obama, and Biden. He is not particularly worse, and I am just not that worried. I don't care much about the media freak out of a day, especially since the media, fox news and otherwise, is often on board with and supporting the worst things that presidents do. I dislike, but understand, how central politics is to people's lives. I honestly could not say I wouldn't post my own messages if I had a large platform, especially since I volunteer in politics and ran for office this last election. So, while I disagree with this message, that is fine. I have loved this story since 2016, and have been a patron since 2017. I continue to love it and have an open offer to any of my friends to buy them the first book in the series. People come first, and I have people I love on each side of the political aisle.
There were concentration camps Kids were separated from their parents, people died. https://www.splcenter.org/resources/stories/family-separation-timeline/
It's hilarious that Le Grand Design's greatest foe is Mrsha!

I liked the chapter and the politics post Pirate. Don't worry about all the fools who are getting angry about what you said, they aren't worth the energy. I think it's good you said what you needed to say. I'm trying to do my small part to fight back, that's all any of us can do.
woo hoo! those parts were amazing. so many spells, perspectives, skills. i love chapters like that where there is both great action, epic fights, and char development
Thank you for saying this Pirateaba. Thank you for using your voice to draw attention to this MASSIVE problem happening in front of us. It is difficult to watch from the outside, so I can only immagine what it feels like from the inside.
I think you underestimate the power of your voice and the effect of your work on bringing people together. The written word has a long history of creating a profound effect on people. If you have something to say, say it, say it loudly and proudly. Your stories has had a profound effect on my personal well being. They have made me laugh, at times have brought tears to my eyes. I have felt anger at the behaviour of some characters and others I play on repeat in my head to feel great joy when I have felt nothing but pain and sorrow. Take your rests when you need them, and never be afraid to speak your mind whether through your work, or to us readers on a more personal level. I know that I at least am willing to sit and listen.
Whelp, these chapters should shut anybody up that complains about slow story progression. This was basically a lvl 80 capstone like [I blew this story wide open, even I don't know where my genius will take me. Tremble, as you hang upon these cliffs.]
Thank you. I can't say much but as a federal employee. The emails coming down the pipeline paint a very bleak picture
If I had any respect for you as an author and a person, I would’ve just lost it (lost that along time ago)… To compare our government now to Fascism is laughable, and insulting to anyone who has ever had to endure a fascist regime. No one’s losing their rights, the only people getting deported are those who are here illegally. It’s sad how brainwashed the media has you people (that goes for both sides btw, not just the left).
shut up nerd
This is the most insane escalation I have ever seen in this story yet. I love it
Am I the only one who thinks living a turn based life would be painful? Imagine not having a normal flow of conversation cus u gotta keep hitting next. Or just how painful listening to someone rant would be. Jeez!
conversation is a free action, but yeah the rest would take a lot of getting used to
Great chapter that was a wild ride. WILD RIDE. Pawn is crazy I wonder what the long term effects will be. I didn’t understand how people kept going through the root I thought it was a one and done deal when it came to people but seems like I’m wrong. I found the timing to be confusing here with the goblins up and leaving a threat in their face to go to fight the titan. Didn’t understand how buffing Rivh let him destroy that antinium and their faith if he just punches uhh better? So I thought the GDI was focusing cus of grimlakin and pryde but it seems it was a reference to part two? A bit confusing. I didn’t understand why the GDI was dieing yes it was because the puppet was waking but can’t it just not load the doors unless opened? Or is this pedantic? I don’t know it feels less like an overwhelming alien stereotypical AI and more like a human. I would love a picture of pawns minions he sent out. And how people guess they were Izralian when it seemed to be a love craftian warrior
Risvi specifically got [Boon of the Guest] from a high level princess, which copied the skill from a high level pugilist. There was a lot more going on there than "just punching better" As for why the GDI is slowing down, it is essentially acting like a god: creating universes. Except it is literally of two minds, the child version is trying to treat them as real universes and the original disagrees. Its a big undertaking for a god and it is fighting with itself
Well it seems likethis message isn’t really doing anything to change sides but making both just double down. I’m not stating my side because if dosent matter HERE. If you want change whether on any of the issues listed there are ways to MAKE action than just stating fears and drawing lines. I can provide pointers on some in priv. Below is an important example of why this is a mistake. I’m conflicted Piretaba. You speak out now but what about before? You said you spoke before when you saw an error in the world but I never heard you call out the crimes that are going on elsewhere. Your story about the depths of history and genocide of sides, yet you didn’t call out what’s going out now. Espixally as you continuously bring up genocides recently. Or is it because that’s different? The irony. I fear your lack of support for one thing but not another is concerning. This feels like what you called out JK on but on a different topic, “but that’s different” you might say…sure just like others would say on a different hill.
I suppose it is truly clear which side you stand on. This was nothing but airing caution, to not err in caution.
This whole chat log is frankly just embarrassing
I’m not sure what a discussion here on irl topics would do when there’s a story where you can properly craft both sides of any argument after doing proper research n all
Just finished part 1 and honestly the whole bit with Grimalkin had me teared up.
So she’s wearing a pillow as a cover? They are teleporting to liscor but since we know they didn’t show up to the titan fight I guess they arrived late…or never did
Incredible set of chapters! Hope the enemies of Erin enjoy a second round of Pawn and learn their lesson.
Honestly I'm so glad that happened. I know it's sort of a big WTF moment but IDK LET THERE BE LEGION LET ERINS FOES TREMBLE!!!!!!
Personally I come for escapism. It feels like everyone is far on one side or the other, telling others how to feel. I enjoyed the peace on this page away from it all. I’m glad you could express your feelings, but I’m a little saddened that it now it feels like every other corner of the internet. I think your support and opinions have been clear through your storytelling. Anyway, thank you for the chapters, excited to read.
So it was both real Mshra and real Rags that ended up nowhere? But fake people like Pawn can have the door close on themselves while in an alternate reality? I was wondering why it was student Rags with Teriarch last chapter…
You have the right to speak freely although I do disagree with you. I love your story and I hope when this blows over you'll see the other side of the coin. Anyways onto the chapter.
It takes strength not use a platform to push a political ideology (assuming that wasn't what you were selling from the start). Today is your weakest day, I am disappointed, not because I disagree but because I feel like my support is now being used to push something I didn't intend for it to.
Its a shame but people are scared right now. Even though i dont believe they should believe the hysterics. People need to get to know what the other side is thinking or this will never be solved.
Thanks for your honesty and courage Pirate! As a person reliant on supporters it is hard to say things that could cost you some of those same people (as comments here attest) but as the old saying goes “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing”. (misattributed to Edmund Bourke apparently and making no reference to women or others of course..) Obviously, ‘evil’ is a subjective definition, but i agree with you that I do not think history will smile on Trumps reign, nor that of other rising ‘democratic dictators’ as the global balance swings back to the right once more. Hopefully there will be enough left from the ashes to make a moral judgement on the past, not just mere survival. Humanity as a rule is damned terrible at learning from past mistakes. Possibly because those who made them are always so much less intelligent than those making them now.. whenever now is, and whomever those past people were.
Ah the slings and arrows of the greatest dipshits on earth, ready to tell you to distrust your lying eyes and ears, that your thoughts and feelings are invalid, and that actually, by posting about politics you have somehow become the oppressor and enemy. Thanks for writing Pirate, we live in interesting times and I know the worries that they've brought. It's going to be a tough couple years, but things can get better. TWI has been a highlight of my weekends since I started reading years ago, and it's no small thing how much it can help to have one small, consistent and good thing. Keep doing what you're doing! Bringing art into the world gives people hope for a better world.
Thank you.
As a trump supporter and someone who disagrees with some of what you said, I don't belive you deserve to get hate for what you said, if someone decides to stop supporting the story or you then they can and should leave without hate, everyone is allowed their opinion, this is YOUR patreon, you are more then allowed to share your views, wishing you and everyone the best, it's going to be interesting times for sure
I'm not suppressing anyone or have any issues with anyone lmao, my manager at work is trans and they are one of the most chill people I know, I don't agree with certain things but that does not mean I'm telling them how they should be or what they should be, have a great night 😁
So good to see another creator censoring or atleast allowing the censorship of differing views/politics/whatever when they start the conversation. I'm upset you're not even allowing most people to disagree with you pirate. for having mods or even being the person to perpetuate the hypocrisy of telling us how to feel and disallowing opposition.
This isn't a discussion about whether you like l prefer pineapple on pizza or not. It's not a matter of disagreement. It's a matter of morals. I don't believe anybody has the right to argue whether I should be allowed to exist. That's not censorship. It's simply not allowing hate.
It's only been a few days. Not even a week and it's already been hell in the US. don't want to be a downer but people keep saying "next 4 years" and I can't help but laugh. Fascists don't tend to just give up power. Anyways, thanks for giving me something to keep the voice in the back of my head distracted
Thanks for your voice Pirateaba. It’s good to hear that my thoughts and feelings are echoed by others who are willing to speak
what an insane chapter. i truly appreciate the great work you do. thank you
Thanks for sharing PA.
Thank you!
Et tu pirateaba, dudo mucho que leas mi comentario especialmente ya que lo haré en español. Pero realmente admiro muchísimo tu historia, la sigo desde que ibas por el volumen 2 la encontré en su momento por royalroad.com sino me falla la neurona. Tantos años pasaron y siempre me trajo sonrisas, lágrimas y se convirtió en mi constante de marte, sbd, jueves? En cierto momentos deje la historia por que odiaba los giros trágicos, pero igual no te imaginas cuantas veces me la he releido.....Solo diré que aunque soy de un país latinoamericano, estaban bien las cosas en años anteriores? El mundo se ha convertido en un lugar tan extraño donde dar tu opinión que no es acorde a los que gritan más fuerte es fascista y sino te amoldas a la ideología de otros eres racista, instigador de odio, etc. Me duele leerte usar palabras como fascista, transfobico, etc pensé que eras mejor que esto igual gracias aun amo tu historia :)
Si te duele verlos decirlo, comprende cómo se sentirán al verlo. tiempos difíciles para muchos. un poco de compasión y empatía serán de gran ayuda. "We must all fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil which we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men." -Boondock Saints
Lots of us see the same thing. The hardest part of all this is that we are all hoping we are better than this. Maybe social media will somehow make a full authoritarian shift impossible, or Trump's own incompetence/stupidity will mean any attempt at autocratic consolidation will fail or be short-lived. But this is happening. And I don't know if the first step into the abyss has already been taken, or if we need a Tiananmen Square event to shock us into realizing the gravity of the situation.
Thank you, Pirate. You are seen. You are heard. You are not alone.
Great message. And great poem. It's in the Holocaust museum in NYC I think, and it's stuck with me ever since I saw it. It's hard not to be apathetic, every day it seems like the only way to get through is to bury your head in the sand a little longer, but it's the apathy and fear and confusion that gives fascism its power. Thanks for the chapter. And for whatever it's worth, I think you've done a lot to shape minds and bring understanding through your writing, especially on trans issues and other issues of identity and belonging. The demands of the current moment and your change in philosophy should not be an indictment of the choices you've made as an author in the past.
I'm glad you've spoken up. I truly do think your views have shown through in your work, but as an author and creator, it takes real bravery to take a position on such a contentious issue. People will hate, tell you to stick to your lane. I, for one, am grateful for your bravery.
Hey as a trans woman in the US I really appreciate your post thank you for taking a stand with us
Thanks for writing that post! I can imagine it’s scary sharing these thoughts as a public figure, particularly in these times. I agree with you wholeheartedly. We should all be calling out the troubling and terrible things that are happening.
Thanks for the message pirateaba. I know how hard it is to make a stand when you financially rely on multiple people for support.
it's that time already? i had lost track of time. thanks for the chapter! how wonderfully unexpected and just a few days passed my birthday!
