Illicit Alliance Update 2-28
🕑 Added 2022-03-01 03:09:19 +0000 UTCKind of proud of this chapter. Let me know what you all think!
Many years of writing kind of coming together in this story, many of which were elements I'd intended as reveals for the main Red Lantern series. At least some of you in the know will be doing the 'pointing at the screen' meme XP

also, "That's like the Robert of Huudari names" LOL

I love the whole thing where he talks about his noble intentions but admits that he's just one man and no matter what he does, the biggest way he could EVER effect the status quo would be to inspire others

Loved it! It must be so challenging not wanting to write Grayson and Luther immediately connecting and being friendly. Gotta built up to it.

The threads of this Tapestry are endless and yet wonderous. Where will they lead us in their weaving.

Loved this.. And the name drops too. I think that Reed is continually having to re-evaluate Luther, and each time the bar moves higher. I'm also sensing the instinct to comfortably work under a more capable, stronger canine that Reed is putting off. I doubt that he's really mean anyone of Luther's caliber yet.

You have an amazing way of writing stories. It's extremely hard to stop reading and always has me guessing to what might happen next. As someone who's been reading this series since Heretic, I see what you mean about "pointing at the screen meme". It's like every individual story is a small piece of a masterly crafted puzzle that of which portrays a living, breathing world. This is "Lord of the Rings" Good. Thank you for the Amazing content.

I was going to send this to you as a letter, but you'd just complained you didn't get as many comments on Patreon as on FA... I hope this helps ;)

very powerful ending to the chapter! Love some of the things this one is setting up!

scared fox is scared

also interesting that he'd been quick to analyze the mechanics... not the reason... probably didn't need to wonder since he knew Luther is gay
Trejaan Cavelion
caught looking at Luther's scars... nice that he could recognize that there'd been more than one flogging involved.
Trejaan Cavelion
it's spelled 'recuperation' BTW
Trejaan Cavelion
We'd just had to kill someone. (love that he has such trouble getting over that)
Trejaan Cavelion
OMG! THERE'S the namedrop! a loris!!! ( I know... it's Ahsan, but still...)

“Don’t mistake my wanting to keep a clear head for having a weak constitution,” he muttered. LOL
Trejaan Cavelion
“That is the most Amurescan thing you’ve ever said,” I laughed at him. (it WAS such an imperial thing to say)
Trejaan Cavelion
watching a fish trying to flee... a very nice and unexpected metaphor... gives an insight into some of the enigma of the cattle dog
Trejaan Cavelion
"And I wanted so badly to meet him." love that
Trejaan Cavelion
um... maybe because she IS asking him to choose?
Trejaan Cavelion
"The name I’d leave scrawled in my wake in the history books would be a mess for cleverer men and women to sort out." nice to see he's still 'progressive' enough to think of women as being capable of being historians... a rarity in his time ;)
Trejaan Cavelion
he has a bottom alright
Trejaan Cavelion
Grayson is feeling sus of Lotus
Trejaan Cavelion

running commentary as I read follows: OK, let's see... It's raining

Very nice to see a certain hyena is keeping up his good work. A excellent new chapter.
