Alpha Preview Update (March)
🕑 Added 2020-03-07 01:52:21 +0000 UTCClick to read the beginning of Chapter 4!
Before you read the chapter, however, please read the disclaimer below...
I agonized for weeks over whether or not I should post this. :( I was pretty anxious and stressed out, for reasons which I think will be clear: but first and foremost, I would like to make it abundantly known that I outlined and scripted the plot of ShoH about 3-4 years ago, and this chapter especially was already drafted out before this update. I wrote the bare bones of it last year and then wrote what you see here sometime last month... but I consider the timing of its release pretty horrible!
Warning: this chapter contains heavy mention and discussion of plague, sickness, and quarantine.
I absolutely wrote this long before the current situation with coronavirus arose, and I was extremely hesitant to post it in light of the current climate today. I'm very sorry if this is a topic that seems distasteful right now, and I promise that it's not intentional or trying to be topical - it just happens to be a really horrible coincidence! My choices were to either rehaul the chapter entirely in light of current events, which I opted not to do, or to hold off on posting it, but I don't find that fair to readers who do want to read the game's most current chapter if I have it ready.
So, I hope you will forgive the bad timing! π If you choose to abstain at this time, I completely understand and thank you for your patience and understanding.
I am proud of the writing of this chapter, and there are other fun things besides this topic to explore, as well!
Things this update has:
- 10,000 new words of content
- Beginning of Chapter 4
- More ex shenanigans
- All Heroes Eve (holiday)
- Officially recruiting Ayla and Red!
- The fate of the Mages of Capra
- The journey to the Reach
- The introduction of Halek, Naolin, and Moonsilk...
- and more!
I hope you will enjoy! Thank you for your continued support and encouragement!

Oh goodness, no inconvenience at all. I had never seen that before so figured it might be something on my end hanging up. Everything is perfect now! π Thank you πβ₯οΈ

Hmm, that's super weird! That shouldn't be happening, and on my end there are 5 save slots... I just reuploaded the file, if you wouldn't mind checking again and letting me know if that helped, I'd appreciate it! Sorry for the inconvenience!

This one just says "Error:Bad Slot has smPlugin been included" under every possible save slot (there are only 3 now as well). I've never seen it before. Weird to say the least.
