Colonel Hooves chapters being resumed. · 3:19pm Aug 2nd, 2023
Hello, I just wanted to make a quick post that after taking a break to focus work on another story, that I'll be resuming work on Colonel Hooves. I'm about 6k into the next chapter with a possible 5k more to be added.
Here's a sneak peek!
“There is one additional matter you should be aware of, Colonel. As previously mentioned, this isn’t the same Crystal Guild I interacted with before. They were eradicated sir. So, please trot with caution.”
“I will keep that in mind.” I confirmed my understanding, but failed to further elaborate my own concerns brought up by this information.
For a past entity to suddenly be revived, and wait nearly two years to make their presence known to the crown doesn’t install much faith in this group. I’d sooner trust Thorax than this lot, and I expect he'll turn into a rock and hide at the first sign of danger; this Crystal Guild, regardless of their previous legacy, are an unknown with nothing to keep them in check, and that makes them a possible threat. Thorax’s motives are still a mystery, but I’ve learned enough from our first encounter during the party to gauge him well enough- he’s too nice.
Sure he might turn into a rock, at least he would not seek to benefit from us should the metaphorical scales tip enough into his favor. I sighed.
All of this bothered me greatly, but not as greatly as cave mites between the chitin, yet nearly enough for me to want to exercise the power given to me if it would help remove this problem quickly.
aaaw yis, this has been in my read later list for quite a while, glad to hear it's continuing :)
