Finished chapter 10 and yeeeet...

Going to be postponed. My proofreader got a look at it and I badly need to cut out the first section or at least completely overhaul it. Fundamentally modify the second section to get my intent across better, and probably fix a number of other issues without, hopefully, completely rewriting the entire fucking thing from scratch.

I am exorbitantly frustrated in my own writing right now to the point I am legit HNNNGHing out loud now and then. This is the first time I've ever had to do this with a chapter, but I suppose it was going to happen eventually.

Edit: Finished editing chapter 10. Section 1 cut down, hopefully the tone of section 2 is far more palatable.
