Hey everyone!

To save you wearing out your F5 keys, I wanted to give you an update on the latest chapter. Unfortunately, a number of real life issues have come up this month, including my father being diagnosed with lymphoma.He's been able to schedule quick treatment, so is just out of hospital after the first round of chemo. He feels fine now, but I've heard it gets much worse as the treatment continues...

I've written the first half of the chapter and will get the rest finished asap. Apologies for the delay.

Tefler

Best wishes for your family. I’m more than happy to wait for quality content produced while you’re in a good headspace, than just trying to spit something out merely to post something.

You take care of your rl family. We will survive, although withdrawals from TSM suck. Might start from the beginning...again.

Hope everything will be ok for you and your family Tef. Best wishes to your father, especially.

Sorry to hear about your father, Tefler. I hope he responds well to the treatment. I'll keep him in my prayers for an effective treatment and a speedy recovery.

Out of all the possible "excuses" for a delay, I think a family member with lymphoma pretty well tops the list. Priorities are priorities, and I am pretty sure that our collective reading enjoyment will tolerate being taken down a few rungs in importance. You will have more important things on your mind for the time being.

Family always comes first mate, I wish your father a speedy recovery with only minor setbacks from the chemo. We only have our parents for a limited time, so make the most of that time with them.....

Fuck cancer! Depending on the type of lymphoma there have been some good breakthroughs the past few years. If he is doing CHOP then yes, the first treatment is usually fine but the second treatment is a bit rougher... at least until they adjust things. They tend to go in 'strong' and then dial back as needed depending on the reaction. Take care of yourself and the family.

Family and Parents are more important than a story - even one as good as this one - He is in our Prayers

I just finished chemo for lymphoma and am in remission. These days most types of lymphoma are treatable and even curable. Good luck to your father and your family.

Absolutely, family first. Hope your father's chemo is effective and uneventful. And I'll echo a previous comment that, as far as I'm concerned, posting the first half for cash flow would be just fine.

Cancer is terrible. The treatment is worse. Take care of your family and we'll see you on the otherside. If he has a favorite food, feed it to him before the nausea and lack of taste kick in.

I lost my little sister, as a relative who went through this, be understanding of his pain and his moods, they might be sharp, let that slide of your back and be as caring as possible. Perhaps give him a paper copy of your work...

Family always comes first. Your family will be in my prayers. Personally, I would be willing to pay twice for the chapter if you released half at a time to help in the little way I can.

Truly sorry to hear the news. I too have to go for regular infusions, though my condition is different. I hope he gets better soon. Make your family your first priority. For your fans, at least the true fans, they will understand. My thoughts go with you.

Sorry to hear about your dad. I really hope he gets thru this. Family definitely comes first. I lost my dad to cancer about 5 years ago and since then I've never once regretted time spent with him. However, I still regret missing his last birthday in order to finish a work project.

It's doublely hard to be caught in the 'middle ' little ones to raise & your elders to care for & look out for , especially with Covid 19 stalking the vulnerable . Be sure to get your rest & care for yourself too .

Tefler, Family is the main thing in our lives in moments like this. Spend whatever time you can with your Father NOW!!!! The BIG "C" is a heck of a fighter to beat. Like the old saying" Hope for the best BUT plan for the worst". Do not worry about us readers.

Thanks for the update. The wife spent the last part of 2019 & the first part of 2020 getting thru 6 months of chemo for her lymphoma - it was a tough time, but thankfully it turned out really well. You have my sincere, and best wishes for your father giving a 100% ass kicking to the cancer. Don't worry about taking more time - you'll be done when you're done, and in the long term, you'll never regret spending time with your father.

It's fine even if you took your time for other reasons it would've been fine since you never give us crap chapters. You take time to research and refine you idea when making a chapter which is far preferable to on time work that is bad

My heart goes out to you, Tefler. Scary times. Been there, done that. Will be praying for you and yours. Take the time to be 'present' with your dad, hear his fears, be there for him. And, should you want to talk privately with someone who has been through all of this several times over, give me a holler over on Discord......Rus is my user name there.

I have been rereading from the start of story, not sure if anyone has brought this up before but wasn't Faye's core memory saved on the hacking deck when they built nexus server.

Anonymous

Yes that is true but each time she didn't have any of the memories or personal experiences. It would be like Faye but they would have to start off at square one. The one potato stage.

Jedi Khan

Her personality is stored on the hacking deck, but not her memories or the code that would allow the crew to rebuild her. Faye wiped that code out long ago when she needed more space. The crew is basically missing the operating system that Faye would run on. They can make the hardware easily enough. They have her memories and her personality. But without the operating system, the code for her personality is just a whole lot of unreadable code while the memories are just a bunch of pictures and videos. Irillith needs to figure out how to build the operating system from scratch. It's like having to write the code to Windows 41 while only being familiar with DOS.

Anonymous

Jedi Khan, that is a very good analogy. but they have Daphne, She's running on Windows 41.2345 made by Faye, why not copy the OS from Daphne to Faye? Or at least allow the resident hacker to figure out what Faye did to Daphne's OS, which would be a lot easier then starting from scratch.

Hinterlands Man

Sending prayers. Great chapter, always fun watching Blake’s enemies on a roller coaster to doom. This chapter had a very dark side though, the way that the girls were depicted echoed the ancient Ashanath progenitor archives. You also duly pointed your finger at the changing alliances. Was there a little foreshadowing going on? Will someone decide to orbitally bombard the Brimorians and wipe them out, now when they are war criminals without a fleet? Hard to imagine otherwise.
