You can’t ask for updates on WiP threads, you might spook the authors or something, anyway it’s against forum rules. @Havenstone @FairyGodfeather @Cecilia_Rosewood
Please do not post in WiPs that have not been active recently. If the author would like this reopened, PM me or one of the moderators and we’ll be happy to.
@Cecilia_Rosewood You told me to tag a moderator with the new update so it can be updated, so I am tagging everyone. @Havenstone @FairyGodfeather
1: Change the update date to 22 october
2: Change the playable words on average to 45 000
3: Add total number of words: 165 294
4: Add this update text at the bottom:
UPDATE 22 october
Took a while, but life is life and I’ve now signed my first publishing contract in the english language. No, I can’t talk about it yet, and no, it is not this game, but I am still working on it whenever I have free time. As you might have guessed from the ratio of total number of words to playable words, it’s been a bit of a parallell slog to get through the latest chapters, but now everything is back together on a more similar path so progress is easier.
Thank you to the people who have asked me about this, it feels good to know that people still want more and while I understand and agree with the “no badgering” rules, I have never felt pressured, only encouraged. So no need for you to feel bad for asking, just be mindful that not everyone feel the same way about these things.
Hopefully I will be able to keep writing, November is always a good time for this, I just hope real life stays quiet. Inspiration is not an issue here, time and peace of mind is. I might have my fingers in too many pies…

I updated the title for you the actual first post will need to be changed by one of the mods.
Just a FYI - Dropbox no longer supports HTML stuff so the links to dropbox do not work for the majority of people. Everyone in the community has been swiching over to @dashingdon 's site for hosting purposes.

Gah! How horrible. Okay, I need to check out how to host things there then.That is so weird… anyone know where I can find info about that?
Here is the discussion the community has been having about it: Dropbox thread
@EmperorHeartless is also an admin on the Dashington site so either he or @dashingdon should be able to get anything worked out over there as needed too.
Holy Crap this got updated, YES! YES!

AAaand I uploaded it to @dashingdon (which by the way was brilliantly simple) so that we might have a working link. Thank you so much, I had missed that dropbox e-mail since I was busy as hell a month ago…

Seems to work, but saving is not possible says “Bad Slot: Has smPlugin been included?”
I filled in that box now! Had not noticed it before.
Great to see another update, can’t wait to try it out.
Who is Ortega in love with I need to know!!!
internal screams of joy so happy this is still going, one of my favorite wips. Also can’t wait to hear more about your other publishing adventure when you can discuss it :3

Dear God it’s been so long since I’ve been played this game.
The same tired hero. The same cynic. The same fallen angel.
Instead this time, I get to test the hammer. I get to test the weapon.
I get to wear the suit.
The feeling of power, the rush of adrenaline. The very thought that all else are but ants waiting to be crushed beneath my feet.
I love it.
Malinryden, you are awesome.
I am going to enjoy breaking the Rangers.

I absolutely love the new update especially since we get to be in the suit and show the world a new type of villain
I may or may not have let out a tiny squeak of excitement when I saw this! (One of my favorite WIPs is back up and running and it’s been updated? Talk about an amazing day!)
I’m super thrilled to see this WIP is still up and going, and congratulations on the publishing contract! That’s amazing! I hope it all goes well for you!
The update is spectacular! I loved the party sequence and am also super happy that we can try and spare as many people as possible, I was worried for a bit that I’d have to go full manic-villain but I’m glad to see that’s an option. 
Also the bit with Herald and Argent, I’ve a keen idea of who it is Ortega’s in love with…
I did find two little errors/typos:
[spoiler]After giving Herald our new alias, the stats screen had the name, but then under ‘Secret Identity’ it had the new villain name instead of the MCs first name.
I think it should be ‘you already are’ instead of ‘you already is’.[/spoiler]
That’s all for now! Amazing as always! I wish you good luck and will be here cheering you on from the sidelines!
So, yeah, good luck!
