@pixie124 All five soul paths will be available in Chapter 2, and I hope I manage to have them ready for the December update. Iāve been struggling with a lingering headache for the last few days, and because of that, I wrote 5k instead of 10k (the number I was going for). Still, I hope things get back to normal soon!

Progress Update
I donāt normally post progress updates here, but since itās more or less Christmas, I thought I might as well tell you where things currently stand.
Weāre somewhere in the middle of Chapter 2. The introduction to the path system is done, same with the scene that lets you pick your path. I also managed to write two small scenes that happen after your path event (one with Sky, one about MCās dilemma).
As for the path events, I finished working on the second one today. Sun and Mind events are done, and I still need to write the remaining three (Sound, Ice, and Mischief).
As of today, Chapter 2 is about 19.5k words long, which puts the total wordcount at 80k.
Happy Holidays!

Awesome job man. Take a break and enjoy the holidays. This chapter is already an improvement from the old one even if itās half done.

I love how the story flows together so well. Itās a really unique concept and I love the Odyss scenes so far in particular. Very curious as to what heās actually up to when he disappears. Sephtis is also a wee gem of a character. Sheās just really intriguing.
I went with the ice path and so far so good, 2nd chapter flows just as well as the others.
I canāt wait to read more. Thank you for this little marvel of a story.

I wish we got the option to tell Odyss to screw himself or something the guyās an ass and we have to play nice with him

@Hunter Thank you! Iām glad you enjoyed the story, and even more so that you liked (more or less) the Ice path. I think itās the story for this path (at least at this point) is the weakest out of the three that are available, so Iām glad it doesnāt feel too bad.
@Kxng Thanks for the suggestion! Iāll make sure to add some mean options. They wonāt include these particular words, as I prefer not to use strong language, but I will add sth.
@geldar I could make it possible to pick such an option (just for the sake of it), but it wonāt be possible to start a purely sexual relationship in the series. The MC can either develop a romantic relationship with one of the ROs, or they can become friends with them (both are valid), but I donāt plan on having hookup or fwb options.
Still, perhaps Iām missing the point?
@geldar Iām afraid I wonāt be able to do much about this, as this is a very specific issue that might make things a bit confusing for most players. I could change āIām not interested in romanceā to āIām not interested in romantic relationships,ā but I donāt think I can to more than that. Your MCās orientation is never mentioned in the game, and this choice exists only to figure out which romances (romance paths, like in Baldurās Gate, Dragon Age or Mass Effect) will be available to you. Itās more about the ROs than it is about the MC.

The sexuality choices donāt seem to have an option for aromantic, but not asexual people? Maybe there should be a ānot interested in romanceā option that doesnāt disable relationships?

@Dariel Aromantic doesnāt necessarily mean Iām not interested in romantic relationships, nor does allosexual mean I want hookups or FWB situations (especially considering most alloromantic people are also allosexual). It means my attraction to someone isnāt based on romantic factors. Aromantic is a rather diverse spectrum. I suppose specifically Iām cupioromantic (which is a spectrum in itself), but thatās still on the aro spectrum.
I guess I can try saying I like men (which is true) and see what the relationship entails. It it just seemed odd to say not interested in romance = not interested in relationships.

- Added the Sound soul path event (ca. 5250 words, excluding code).
- Corrected some typos in Chapter 2.
Edit: I changed the last soul path from Color to Mischief, and Iām currently in the middle of writing the path event. Mischief was actually strongly associated with my ideas for this path, and I just decided to embrace it fully. In short, your MC will be able to give people good luck or cause them misfortune. Thereās also a leprechaun involved! 
Iāll make sure to add a little bit of both.

- Added the Mischief soul path event (ca. 5700 words, excluding code).
- All Chapter 2 path events are now present in the game.
Iām going to take the next couple of days off, and then, Iāll start working on the second part of Chapter 2. I hope to have it ready by the end of the month. This second part will add another 20-22k words to the chapter. (Iām also going to add those mean and bold responses in your MCās talks with Odyss.)
Hope you enjoy all the paths!

- Added another two scenes: Sephtisās power issues and a short conversation with Elena, Marco, and Odyss (ca. 7100 words, excluding code). The latter serves as an introduction to the next three scenes thatāll come later this month.
- Added a choice that lets you confront Odyss and his attitude. (Iāll go back and add more bold/mean responses to earlier conversations, too.)
- You can now use your sound power via singing in the scene with Sephtis.
The total word count is now at over 103k, which means weāre about 25% done. The first book is going to be more or less 400k words long (twice as long as Temple of Endless Night!). I still hope to have the whole thing done by the end of Summer 2022.

Option 3 treats Sky as a male when sheās female in this playthrough and other options get it correct.
Also I donāt know how but I got to 105% Playful and totally unserious.
