Chapter 9 has been sent off to my editor · 11:17pm Dec 11th, 2013
Said editor being the illustrious xIMPERSONATORx, who is very much a cool person.
I decided to eventually split it into two smaller chapters rather than one larger one, but this chapter is very standalone in starting and ends at a very natural spot, so that shouldn't matter too much. It's about 3500 words anyway, which is a respectable amount.
No promises on the upload date, unfortunately, but it's definitely happening at some point! Hurrah!
