Side Story Poll - March 2019
Well, this is awkward. It's uh, nearly the end of the month. But I had my vacation and it did a world of good! But as you know, writing 3 chapters a week is no longer feasible with how much damage it does to my hands and mind. Damage is probably the wrong word--it's more like there's a limit to how much I can output, and I'm close to hitting it with regular chapter being 15k+ on a regular basis.
Until I change that...there's a limit to what I can do. As for side stories, I think we're too close to the end of the month for me to fit one in. But I always offer a poll so this time we'll be polling to see which regular arc we hit first.
I warned you Volume 6 would go places. And in this case, we're going to different characters. Yes, the ones you remember. Flos, Tom, Geneva...and of course Erin and Ryoka, Laken and Rags. Blackmage too, but uh, I think I might have poisoned the well with his first chapter. Let's just say he's got more to show you all.
Right now we're in Ryoka. But the next arc I'll leave up to you. We might have a chapter or two for our favorite [Innkeeper] after that (no, not Mad Madain), but you'll determine which is the next arc that appears. Regular side story voting will appear next month.
So...vote!

I don't really want to see more toren/king chapters. I feel like those two work better as background threats, rather than having everything they do explained.
Huh wonder where the new chapter is?
Are we getting a new chapter once or twice a week?
toren the goblins and titan are all so interesting but toren and laken/goblins will appear later the doctor has no such guarentee
Really stuck between Goblins (my favorite) and the Doctor.
Laken redemption and more empire building please!
Always wanted to get back to the U.N./Doctor arc, and Laken taking Pebblesnatch and Ulvala et al captive was immediately electrifying.
Yesss! Geneva is awesome. I love the concept of a trained expert coming to the world and how their expertise translates into the culture.
Wow, I really thought Toren would be way in the lead. Personally I'm hoping we'll see what Blackmage has up his sleeves.
Toren and Laken for me!
I'll be happy with Toren, Laken or the Doc. So I voted for all 3 :p
I voted for the same 3. Doctor will definitely win but at least the others are 2nd and 3rd place. Most people agree with us
I NEED more Toren in my life, but I'm glad people are voting on the Doctor
I am an simple man, I see the Doctor I click, then I see the Titan and click 2 more times.
niers and geneva visiting liscor!
It has to be Toren! Where are they going, why are they building up that absolute HOARD of skeletons, are they lonely? I need Toren!
I kinda identify with the transgender skeleton with multiple personalities and sometimes murderous rage ;-) But I won’t be sad to see more of the doctor.
Have to go with the Doc because of how interesting that is! As a runner up gimme sum o dat sweet blackmage shenanigans
Too many good options
I desperately want to see another chapter of Toren, but not a whole arc (sadly). I'm gonna go with the [Doctor] since she's actively changing the world around her like Erin is, and that's what I love about this genre :)
Pleasantly surprised to see the doctor in the lead over toren. I really enjoy her chapters
I think taking a break from known or familiar plot lines/realms will do a world of good for flow and reader appreciation and open mindedness for Goblin, Laken, Erin, Astoragon, and Toren related plots. It's a good call to go with Ryoka, and it's a better call to move across the world to Wistram, Chandrar, or Rhir next. I don't know the future plot so can't say what is an ideal arc flow, but 100% believe that regardless of what people say, going to one of those three places will be better for the story. I think Rhir is best since it moves forward the otherworld mystery plot, which fits nicely as a change in pace from what appears to be fun yet intriguing Ryoka misadventures. I may be super wrong. All of this is to say: I think you should pick what's best for flow regardless of what wins, pirateaba! :)
United nations!
So hard to pick from last three choices
I can't stand the clown and that clinically retarded king. Uh, other than that! Geneva's been my favorite of all arcs after Erin and Ryoka, so definitely her. And she's been so neglected! Sorry. Toren needs some attention, too. The Blacksmith with Flos is sooo overdue. Miss Wistram, a peek now and then would be nice. And I guess a peek at that bastard Laken's revival as a good character would be nice. ;-) But mainly, I want Ryoka. Gimme Ryoka. Lots of Ryoka. Vamps too. And wind stuff. Kthanks :-D
That really surprises me - you don’t like clown? I love his crazy
It has been so long since we’ve seen our confused skeleton
Please let the clown and token win
By far the best POVs!!
