Chapter Five is written!  This was the first chapter that gave me trouble where I ended up deleting a lot of content.  It started first with Milo's route, where he was acting semi out of character and information was coming out that I would much rather deal with later in the game.  It ended in me deleting over eleven pages of writing and reworking the entire middle of the route. But, honestly, it turned out so much better than what I had.

Belladonna was my next problem child. The way that this chapter is set up, is you go to see the Baron (which I am so excited to see what you guys think of them) and then you get to go to a festival that evening.  When it got to the choice to go with Belladonna, however, I realized, this woman would not be making herself available to go enjoy fun festival antics with you. She is a businesswoman. She was probably already booked for a job.  So then, I basically stared at the screen and went "wtf do I do". Because I didn't want to deny access to an RO for the chapter, but having her do what everyone else did was entirely out of character.  

However, I LOVE how it turned out.  The ending scene with her is so layered that it made my writer brain dance. :)

From here, I needed to put in my edits once my beta readers look at everything, and then I need to polish up and code the sex scene for Milo's route.  I am looking at a tentative Patreon release on Tuesday.

Hope everyone is doing well!
