Madness!!!
But... now it is Sunday...???
Can... Still... Stay... Up...
Gotta respect the art of pirateaba fucking doing it in real time... I bet the reason the episodes come out over that window is cause she is writing/ publishing up until when she publishes. The later it comes out the more she has worked in it.
Yeah, I'm ready when Pirate is.
Is it just me or the uploading time has progressively been postponed more and more ?
Has there ever been a consistent upload time beyond "sometime" Tuesday and Saturday night?
No contact with Relc so far, and he didn't return a message before. As an alternative to clicking refresh, what's your best Relc guess? A) Shows up as a PoV during the Solstice Chapters. B) First PoV of volume eight for a couple of chapters, bringing him up to the present with new plotlines and such. C) His PoV stays dark for the foreseeable future: he's been spirited away by forces observing Erin and the Inn and his fate will be mysterious until the gang goes up against Manus-Az n' Bel-Rashkghar whoever. I think B, personally.
I think Relc going away felt a bit forced to me. It was mostly a plot device to give other and new characters space in Liscor for Vol 7. But that’s just my interpretation. But yeah, I think he will be back in Vol 8.
This arc is great. Funny the number of people I see disliking this arc is higher than the last arc, the run, where I didn't like that one at all but I love this one so much
Hmm I'm just not feeling this Arc. I rarely skim thru a read. Glad that 99% seem to be loving it though.
What about it are you not keen on?
Hope to god everything is cleaned up before the christmas/new year break cause that’s a long ass time.
What do you think the odds are we will see Erin in some kind of dream sequence like thing where she is playing chess against “death”? I know it might be a bit cliche but I think it would also be kind of good.
That would be amazing!, I was thinking earlier wonder what she is experiencing while in between life and death, does she get to interact with whatever created the level system or any other that might be in the between, can she hear/see whats happening in her inn while she is in between what if she gets the option to return to earth or stay and know that she will never be able to return but find out who was responsible for all the summonings ....ahhh can't wait until next chapter!
Part of me wants the [redacted] kingdom to fail in [redacted] (hopefully people who've read will understand that). I wonder if Ryoka will get to speak to Ivo again or whether the request will just be from Erin (please don't give Erin a level squish). Amazing chapter Pirate, keep them coming and then get some sleep in time for Vol.8.
Guess I should expect part two on the winter solstice, huh? huh?!? Nice exposition, love your work and (i) find myself in much of what you relate, chess included. For what it's worth, have a virtual hug >:d< @pirateaba >:D<
Really hope the Blighted King gets someone who knows that the proper response to being kidnapped and forcibly conscripted is to figure out who made it possible and kill them.
Really odd timing -- I just hit the Christmas section of my re-read past Volume 3.1 -- just in time for this mystery guest in this one. Does that mean Ryoka WON'T have a conversation as hers went wrong as her conversations tend to do?
"Lady Ieka just told me to ask Lady Wuvren." - Savage.
I was beginning to think this wasn’t happening either and that Ryoka would actually sleep past it. But it seems not EVERYRING is falling apart, but mostly just the [Innkeper]s schemes and her friends.
That is not dead which can eternal lie
Cheers for another great chapter
Great chapter. Hope I get to stop crying before the volume ends
Oooooo I'm dying of anticipation! ComeOn pirate! Next chapter better be a finale for the ages!
Beautiful and tragic
Your damn cliffhangers Pirate... I love it.
Thank you again for all your hard work
Wow that was amazing
Amazing, thank you!
God I hope this series never ends
30 years from now pirateaba writes us the readers into the book and we get to play the story like an MMO video game where we get to control avatars in the world run by the now digitalized mind of Pirateaba. Just makes controlling avatars in another world Canon.
That was lovely. Your patented roller-coaster of emotion, humor and awe. With another cliffhanger end .... evil 😈 author. 😆
Thank you!!! At least the potential part 2 will be worth finishing finals week.
Please don’t make it an interlude.
Oh god oh no it says part 1 do I read it or wait for the next part to come out?
Whoo!
Thanks Pirate!
*happy*
