Chapter Thirty-Five: Flame in the Night

Author’s Note: I've been suffering from a major writer's block lately, so chapters have been coming up slowly, with equally snail-like pacing. Still, I decided to upload a chapter, anyway. I hope you enjoy this chapter and future ones, too!

Chapter Thirty-Four: Bats in the Belfry

Author's Note: I've started work recently, so I haven't been able to work on this as much as I'd like. As a result, updates might be a bit slow the next couple of months. To compensate for said slowness, here's a new chapter to keep you on your feet!

Chapter Thirty-Three: Midnight Masquerade

Author's Notes: A little exposition-heavy chapter to break the pacing a bit. It's got plenty of relevant info, though, so try not to skip it.

Chaper Thirty-Two: Boulevard of Broken Dreams

Author's Note: Nothing much to note or warn about. But I'd like to apologize for the slow pacing of recent chapters. Long story short, as the plot keeps unwinding, I've been running short on ideas and energy, so I've sort of been pantsing it, slowing the plot to a crawl in some areas. But once I get myself sorted out, I'll fix up some things and get the story back to its former (slightly faster) self.

Chapter Thirty-One: Whispered Promises

Author's Notes: This chapter basically starts right where the last one left off, so there's a slight sense of closure now (though not for the story itself, obviously). I can't say there's much else to mention here, so enjoy!

Chapter Thirty: Never Forgive, Never Forget

Author's Note: Apologies for the delay in updates. I've been blocked up by personal things (writer's block, artist alley work, etc.), but now that I've got some time to myself, I can finally upload something. This entry is actually half of an overly long chapter that I had to chop in half, so if it feels a bit incomplete, that's why.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: From the Lost Days

Author's Note: Our heroes are finally back in Teufort, yay! But the story's far from over. We've still got those pesky red strings dangling, not to mention the numerous plot threads that seem to only multiply over time. This chapter... doesn't really answer to many of those, but it's important for characterization reasons, so I implore you to
