April 2026 -- Chapter Poll!
Okay, here's something new for you. TWO POLLS instead of one. Hear me out...I know it's a lot of chapters to commit to, but I think it could work. I've got a backlog in production and if I keep it, these are chapters I want and need to write, but just have been on the backburner too long. So you help me write at least two of them! We all win. Except my hands.
Why two polls? Because I uh, don't think the R-poll has a lotta strong contenders against the Izril poll. It's like putting the Horns against Flos. So, vote for me and we'll see what happens. Mystery is a good part of writing. Also, thank you for all the support on the physical book launch. News is still spreading and I'm not sure how many people are ordering (we'll get numbers by the end of the month hopefully so very scary), but you guys have been immensely supportive. Please tell people and encourage them to buy the books! It really does help.
...Okay, here's the poll! Remember to vote for both options!

Tbh I wouldn't mind a chapter about the knoll taken by the Antinium!
Pirate plz plz plz write the Tolv chapter someday. It was such a close poll count and his character is so interesting.
He is! And I Figure he might’ve been blessed as Goddess Erin’s first “Holy” warrior. (The blessing might’ve been how for the first time he created a undead eater Goat) Similar to Kasigna’s Hags she summoned.
Rickle and tolv i dont want ilvrisssss
Please let roshal beat the poll titles guys; being obscure & out of sight is what yazdil wants
😂
Rickle sucks! Go Touva
I want all the R stories. I don’t think it will win, but I really want to follow up with Selys on the Izril side. Ilvress or Liska’s day off are also seem delightful to me. Still I really want to see what Selys has been up to since she left Liscor.
Fellow Garbichug’s the time is ticking and we are closing in! The Half Elf must suffer! Rejoice and carry the torch and cast your vote. Praise Goddess Erin! Praise the Sky!
Gosh danget the closest we got was 15. Urg then it quickly goes 20+. My precious putrid boy.
I would tell people to buy the books but I think I will skip a step and buy them the books instead
please let rianchi be in the courier chapter!!! pleeeeeaze!
Could even be a confirmation on Persua’s condition. Either she is dead, “Dead” (is a mimic), active and crippled, or is crippled and hospitalized. (Could even be returning visits to heal from her severe mana poisoning)
Good work so far, team. The artists and mods struggle to turn the tide, but the starved R-ducks have kept the lead into day 2.
Please do another chapter about the [Gunslinger] that's with the demons, please. I don't remember her name because she needs more chapters.
Flora.
I really wanna see what Ilvriss has been up to. He was moving like a demon against Az'Kerash then we heard nothing for like a year.
A sad turnaround for him is that Az’Kerash is not home.
Kinda want to see if the gentlemen are truly formed by a previous person from earth.
No they are not
Rickel has been an option for years at this point i'd like to see that one get written
Too bad can’t have every choice
I was the 5000th vote
Wait, we might not get that awesome Liska chapter finished? I also want to see the marathoner and diabetic after their introduction in the stream!
I voted for Selys because it has been a long time since we’ve heard what’s happened to her.
The [Diabetic] as a class is getting serious and well deserved side eye from me. What's next the [Paraplegic], the [Amputee], the [Mentally Challenged], the [Blind Guy]?
I doubt [Diabetic] is legitimately a class but a Red condition.
I want tolve so bad that it's genuinely a problem
So many of the Izril ones really do need to be moved forward plotwise, but I really want to see more Liska development. Will be hilarious if at the end of this series it's our humble [Door Gnoll] that is the one who does what none of the Archmages of Wistrim can and opens a door back to Earth.
I think a fun ability where she essentially teleports one door to another door.
Why do you have to make this difficult
I have been Robbed, where is a Rhaldon the chemist driver option.
The R was definitely for plots no one would like to vote for. A league of their own. Rhaldon doesn't fit.
Question for the folks: The new paperbacks, do they cover the same text as the first two ebooks and audible books, but are split because of physical size? Or is it new/revised text?
From my understanding it will be the already revised Volume 1 broken into two books and a newly revised Volume 2 (continuing to fix the Persua issues and some other continuity issues) also broken into two books.
These Polls feel like when I was very small and my Granny would take me to the village store and I would get a comic and a choice of ONE sweet. Six year old me would stand looking at all the goodies laid out and would have to decide.... SO difficult....
Darn I’ve been clamoring rickel forever, yet the better roshal is set up, the more satisfying their fall
I vote Rabbit and Ryoka for the R poll
I went for the diabetic and the marathoner because...I just want to know who the hell they are.
Not gonna lie, none of these are chapters I particularly care to be covered.
Yeah not exactly happy about delaying main characters/actual story by another month+ (we all know both of these poll options will probably be multi-part).
The Tolveilouka option has to win, if for no other reason than to find out why it's in the R section...
It should be Ilvriss for the plot but I just have to pick Liska’s Day Off too. You weren’t kidding, the R poll is a real race to the bottom. I guess I’ll pick Rickel just for the gentlemen callers, but I really hate that character. Scammers are scumbags.
FFFFF I supper wanna see more Arrema but I NEED more Liska and Ilvriss content. As for the other poll... ehhh TBH the only people I kindnof care about over here is the Gentlemen callers and I think Rickel is interesting.
I kinda need to know what fresh mess Selys is in right now. Last we heard from her was at the very same start of the volume it’s been like 60 chapters since then.
R-poll without a Ryoka option is criminal
Can we get Erin, the Horns, or someone important?
[eRin] or any Random [pRincess]!
I want them all. So in a way.I will be disappointed and satisfied at the same time no matter what the outcome will be
Is an Erin chapter a possibility? Feels like months since she's had any contribution
Prob not until next volume :/
Is diabetic a class?!
Yes and its a certain Pink [Lady]
Vote for the gentleman callers, fellow ducks!
I cast plague upon you and your fellow ducks, and hope Tolvs win!
Hard choice, but
Simula Ioana Luminita hears a knock on the door. Simula Ioana Luminita opens door only to see a smiling half Elf with a knife. “Simula Ioana Luminita my dear…. You voted for me RIGHT!” He only smiles even more. “OF COURCE YOU DID!” The smile grows even more un-naturally! Simula Ioana Luminita closes the door… whom have they voted upon? We can only hope.
I love all of these
Voted but I'm on book 7 and the websites been down since yesterday I'm missing my inn fix
We just got done with a poll chapter! Just write the main story please!
So many plot points it may be until next volume we finish off in Baleros, sad but eh still fun chapters.
I have no idea what I'm voting for.....still on Volume 7
You lucky dog :) The best is ahead
Vote for Valceif you fools! You would dare separate a grieving mother from her resurrected son???
It's not him though, isn't a different version? I get confused with POF as it implied there was some who actually came back while others were alternative versions.
PLEASE VOTE FOR TOLVE IM RABID FOR THIS PLAGUE ELF AND I WANT TO SEE HIM SUFFER
No he sucks, vote for Richard!
Truth, I don't mind as I love them all. Unrelated, did i miss something? How do i reorder the books.
The Wandering Inn series is being offered as ebook and paperback from Harper Voyager publishing!!!! WE GET PHYSICAL BOOKS! And there's a map of Izril! And new art for the covers! And--- Four ebooks (for v1 and v2) are already available for download. (Paba has said that v2 has gone through another editing pass to help with continuity issues) The physical books are available for preorder from the publisher and should start to be out in August/September, depending on your location.
Ilvriss and Tolv my beloved 🙏
I want them all. Immediately! Seriously, every one I looked at I was "I need that story." Thanks Pirate!
Ilvriss needs to happen, that boy waited for way too long in the background.
I'm fine for everything except Rickle. I feel like he might die and I don't want his death on my conscious.
i'm the opposite, i don't want his chapter cause i think he deserves to die off screen on a rope
please please i need tolv angst so badly
Sometimes I forgot how just many threads are still waiting to be woven into the story.
Sign of a phenomenal tapestry: it's got colors!!
Ah, I ended up voting for basically every option
I'd love to see Haade and his lovely friends.
Ah. Read the descriptions so I didn't comment first:(
Come on Ilvriss, this is a plot point that has been in the making for so long, since the beginning of the story really. Give it to us
I voted for Ilvriss!
Let's gooooo, I hope Rickel takes the win
