Scripture #4 changes and today and tomorrow

If you celebrate Halloween, enjoy! I will be a member of Ravenclaw with an official sorting hat, wand, exact immitation harry potter robes, and a ravenclaw scarf. It looks sick.
I'm going to attempt to triple chapter this week, but you won't get a bonus chapter for a little while. I'm trying to get ahead of my chapter postings, so that when I do bonus chapters in the future, they don't come at the cost of my sanity as I try to stay ahead of our weekend releases.
A lot of hidden artwork is going to post for my Tier 2 Patrons today. They also show up on my RR postings, but Tier 2+ get the previews, as you essentially paid for it.
Tomorrow the Tier2+ poll will release. It focuses on the Auction system, which will likely be a mini-bonus chapter. Should be fun and I'm curious what everyone picks.
For Scripture #4 and the reason I changed it, it's because a patron pointed out that the writing within could be viewed as disparaging a religion or religions depending on how you view it. It's a true story from a time I returned from a fight in Afghanistan, wherein a friend of mine had just died. We were trapped in a village for three days, all 50 of us, and we were up against 200 fighters. It was quite rough, and I don't think I really slept for any of it. That scenario is what happened the moment I stepped off of our up-armored truck and found two NCO's, in pristine uniforms, sitting on a food chest watching us.
Could it be viewed as disparaging? Certainly, and thus the change. If that one patron sees it that way, others will as well. I don't like to cater my writing to other's preferences, but RR has very specific rules when it comes to religion. I decided it was better to make the change now, than face a ton of backlash and potentially have my story removed from the website.
If for some reason you still find the writing to be negative in scope as it relates to other Earth religions, please let me know and I'll take a look at it. The purpose of my writing isn't to insult other's religions, and I'd rather just stay away from that if I can help it.
Thanks, and I hope you're having a great week. Enjoy the images and poll!
p.s. there are a ton of images
