Thanks for your hard work!
Dang, I wanted to see Toren in a world where he saw himself as Erin’s protector and son, a skeleton with a sword wearing a wandering inn uniform. His favorite question is if he can stab people. Toren said in sign language, “You're very rude.” He turns to Erin, and she cuts him off. Sighing annoyed “No, Toren, you're not allowed to stab anyone. Use your words. Everyone knows you can talk.” “Hmm.. 'll keep my eyes on you.”
It makes me incredibly sad that even in a story arc where every possible character combination from alternate worlds makes an appearance, Pirate doesn't give us any mention of Toren. I absolutely love Toren, and I feel like he's been victimized by early outrage of readers seeing him as an unforgivable murderhobo. Countless bad guys have been given redemption arcs and humanized, but Toren got a once over, power up, then was effectively shoved in a broom closet to never be referenced again.
The lesson to be learned is that whenever there is a goblin king just have a picture of elia the goblin slayer on standby and shoot him in the eye. He keeps getting struck in a trance when he sees her.
i just finished! it's so hard to go from this into another book for me, it's always so good i feel like I'm watching a movie or something I feel for every character
Such a good chapter
So, did we just basically see the best Necromancer class in the series? I doubt you can do better than [The Apotheosis of Undeath, Herald of Breathless Era]. That sounds like a class that would reach pinnacle and just turn you into another God of Death. It is even there, in the name!
I mean the fact that there is no longer a God of Death seems very plausible reason for the class. Any Undead may have the chance to Claim that domain into Godhood. Though I still feel like Erin should also have the right. (Only to have GDI screw her over on those Classes in V9) Just not as much as the true Undead or Partitioners of Undeath.
I am stunned, no notes
Good luck, I think you'll need it to land this one.
Spoiler below Well I finished the chapter. It was a chapter alright. And the question we were thinking last chapter is still yet to be answered. How this will end. I’m suspecting time travel or something how else did Marsha get those levels way before this arc started. Goddess of Inns lol glad she’s there too, it’s an interesting concept we always thought Erin would have and I don’t understand why nothing in the slightlest Is happening. How these chapters played out is what I expected, the characters canceling each other out and then leaving after doing something crazy. I’m not gonna lie I started glazing over the smaller fights. it’s too much. But the magic word game was interesting shame it was only done once. I really liked what u did with xitgen having a flash back last chaper and how he saw the world differently, that was interesting take! Pawn holding the door was a comedy trying to be inserted in the wrong time, l thought this was him sacrifing but no it’s not and it’s being played as a joke multiple times, it’s hard to get the mood sometimes. Perhaps all of this is better on reread? But what are we saying when we’re like “oh yeah an entire arc, thousand of words will be good only if u read it all from start to finish without waiting.” All I see happening is people skipping parts because it’s still the same thoughts and feelings, only difference is there’s no need to wait. BUT your stories are always fun to reread. That’s what I did with chapter 9 and 10 during this arc and I loved them more, I saw all the little details that made sense in hindsight. perhaps me down the line will see this arc differently. Well…Only one way to find out. It’s been a journey with twists and turns, with hype moments and a lot of confusion. I’m looking forward to the epilogue and what comes after!
[I’m suspecting time travel or something how else did Marsha get those levels way before this arc started.] I had thought the Fairy magic that clung onto Mrsha attached to her name was used. And in doing so may have essentially used her name as a backdoor to give her those classes. Even stated it was the Fairy Kings last trick and we know GDI can’t see through fairy magic. (lacks perspective) Mrsha was blessed with Fairy Magic all the way back when Ryoka accepted the bargain to save Mrsha. Ryoka’s name was removed whats to say Mrsha’s name was not touched the same? What i feel like may happen is a mind wipe of all the events that happened. (excluding those around the Inn even Erin until she visits the Pavilion). Only through this i can see everything returning to normal. Or more than likely re revert all the way back to where Sherika is asked to go attack Goblinhome and this time says no. (And everyone affected experience a very vidid “Dream” like how “Door Rags” figured herself out. Where the Dragon Titan was removed from existence, and Rags thinks better of going to the Kraken Eaters) Where the only push to Baleros is the Dryad “twins” being born and defended. If anything the whole Mrsha “vision” was a teaser about the Treants and possible Druidic conclave to defend the Dryads new home. Heck the Druids even Cursed Jungle Tails after the whole “Fire”.(now they are out for blood!)
The grand design is about to finally be an intelligent design 😇

Almost finished with the last chapter. Can't wait to start this one. But Paba, I've got a bone to pick with you. You've made Teriarch way too weak. There is no way that 6 Teriarchs and one sheta are having this much trouble with one goblin King. The palace has made it hard to get a grip around how overpowered the goblin King is and I don't know how to feel about it. It was one thing when we just thought he was a really strong dude who just always had armies but strong enough that 6 dragonlords are struggling is just not it.
I am pretty sure the most of his OPness comes from the simple fact that it has Rabbiteater's Skills and body, both of which were artificially boosted by System upon creation od that particular timeline
10/10 chapter. I’m crying
about to read it! just in time to keep me up from bed. yay chapter yay!
Quacking has begun!
Good luck Pirate! You do so much to make Saturday's even better. Until next week, Quack Quack.
