Chapter 5. "How Land is Carved from Afar"

I walked into the sandpit and slowly looked around, making sure the entire pavilion was watching me. “Thank you again for coming here today. Let us begin our first strategy meeting.”

Our humble estate pavilion, the only place with a traditional Emanai sand floor, had been designated as ...

Chapter 4. "Making Rounds"

The workshop shuddered as the palm met the wall.

I tactically slid further down from the figure looming over me. “Do you want to talk?”

The nostrils flared. “Why?”

As far as the body shapes went, Isra Haleh was a big girl. A very big girl. Not the lamurian six metres i...

Chapter 3. "Family Affairs"

Aikerim’s manor was as impressive as ever. Tall walls enclosed the compound, shielding the luxurious buildings and pavilions away from covetous eyes and thieving hands. Only the wide open entrance gate allowed a rare glimpse of the inside as the manor inhaled carts of produce and disgorged fran...

Chapter 100. The Knight's Graph

Chapter 99. The Queen's Gambit

AN. I am back. Still alive. Nothing deadly, but my eyes have been a problem for a long while. The current plan is to wrap up this book in the next chapter and then start the next one in earnest as soon as possible. A lot of groundwork had been done already on the third book and i am quite...

Chapter 98. "The Welcoming Committee" Part 2

AN: or so i said... Well what looked to be just a few unwritten paragraphs turned out to be a dead end that felt not only stiff but went nowhere. So i had to cut it away and rewrite it... A handful of times. Now this "part 2" is 8k words long and more of a chapter of its own.

Chapter 98. The Welcoming Committee (Part 1)

AN: Apologies for my prolonged absence. I had a few RL problems and had to visit a hospital for a bit. Lack of computer and time didn't help me much. As you can see this is just part 1 the larger part 2 will be posted in a few hours (missing a few last paragraphs atm)

Chapter 94. Covetous Eyes

AN: This is the last one of the intermediate chapters and the next one will be the finish of the Concerto. I already started working on the next so I hope the cliff won't last long this time.

WisherBeware post Travel time map of the Emanai region from patreon

This is to give me (and you) a general idea now long it usually takes to travel from Samat (the red circle in the lower centre) to other nearby regions.

Travel is calculated as either foot travel, river boats, or sail ships with the easiest most common mode of transportation being used as ...

Chapter 88. The Divine Firewalls

Chapter 80. "Push Back"

AN: I know I am not writing some perfect book here but I absolutely hated the first part of the chapter that I had to rewrite it three times. It would either go nowhere or ended up turning characters into background props. Hopefully the current version is up to your standards. View Post
