    I hope your situation gets better TionWolf! great to know you still exist! on another note i'm curious how chapter 10 would end out but life comes first as annoying as life is.

    Chapter 10 will be the finale of the Floran sequence, afterwards the Hylotl sequence will start.
    I don't want to give any spoilers but I can tell you that Chitlan, Musket, and Adija will actually play a role rather than be confined to the ship.

    Its been a while now, any updates on anything?

    Since my return only a few minor grammatical fixes in some of the chapters (5 and 6), plus I'm reworking the overview system I had, now instead of every chapter having an overview only the first chapters of every sequence will have one, and the finale chapters of each sequence will have a summary of everything that happened up to that point in the chapter before the actual chapter begins.

    I am working on something a bit big, revising the story a bit actually, so expect some revisions before chapter 10 comes out. They aren't really anything major, just some character moments I wanted added / altered because I didn't like how they were before. None of them really affect the story much, so I'm inclined to call them minor revisions but all of them focus on individual characters so I think on that front they could be considered somewhat major but definitely not drastic. As said, the story so far will be unaffected by these revisions so when I finally upload them you won't have to reread everything, I will give a list of what was changed without spoilers so you can read the changes for yourselves.

    Yes, Against the Ruin is still alive. I'm currently working on revisions for a few of the chapters and I'm almost done with the last one, after which I will upload them all together with a comment that contains a change log as well as a tl;dr spoiler section.
    On my profile I posted a status update that describes why future updates after this one might take a long time to come out.

    Okay everyone, I'm finally here with the next update. It's more of a collection of revisions basically but they all focus on trying to develop the characters more.
    You can find the revisions themselves in chapters 3, 6, and 7 and I encourage you to read through them again in order to get the new feel for the story now. That isn't to say the story is drastically changed, just that I tried to improve upon the characters a bit to add more feel to them.

    I have this spoiler here for you to look through in case you don't want to reread everything or in case you have reread everything and want to make sure you didn't miss anything.

    Chapter 3
    • Took away Ranaka’s mech since it makes more sense for just Xavier to have one at first.
    • Chitlan decides to keep his bear for emotional reasons and ends up meeting an Avian woman named Zyaotl.
    • Redid the Chitlan vs Hunter fight by having it take a little longer for Chitlan to beat him, and with the help of Ranaka.
    • Modified the end of the campfire scene, suggesting that Xavier might be lonely.
    Chapter 6
    • Added a scene where Asheem asks Xavier if he thinks their mission will be successful.

    Chapter 7
    • Ranaka has a flashback moment to when he first had to duel someone as a youngling.
    • Added Ranaka vs Ayisab fight.


    If you notice any inconsistencies please inform me so I can look into them myself.
