And so ends the first major story arc.&nbsp; I&#8217;m very happy with how it turned out, and where it&#8217;s going to go from here.&nbsp; Will Siren join the LC?&nbsp; What kind of consequences do Aegis&#8217; death present?&nbsp; How much is Mira going to gloat after taking on half of the LC by herself?&nbsp; <br /><br />All these things and more in chapter nine, after a break of course.&nbsp; This chapter was exhausting to write.&nbsp; With 20 characters featured (21 counting Arquebus) just planning how to fit everyone in and mapping out the timeline of what happened when and where was a nightmare, let alone actually writing it.&nbsp; The next few chapters will definitely be smaller in scope, and feature more sexy perils and less bloody hero on hero violence.<br /><br />As always, I appreciate everyone who reads and enjoys my stories.&nbsp; Comments and feedback are always welcome.<br /><br />Part 8: <a href="http://fav.me/dal0j3e">fav.me/dal0j3e</a><br /><br />Siren and co's adventures continue in <a href="http://fav.me/dau3f59">Honor the Dead</a>
