At long last, an update is upon us. (Set Sail Chapter 11 Preview!) · 1:02am Feb 7th, 2021
The editing process has been a little bit drawn out this time thanks to IRL schedules, but I think we're pretty much done! Only a few more tweaks may be needed before it's ready to hit the site. Barring any major revelations of problems, it will release on Tuesday!
Anyone interested in getting sneak peeks a few days before the chapter drops? I haven't ever really done this before, but I figure it might help build the hype a bit for the chapter release. If you want a quick preview of Chapter 11, check below the break. Also let me know in the comments if you want me to do this for future chapters and other things or if it doesn't really matter either way.
The tip of my tail twitched back and forth gently as I watched the road below me. I usually didn’t spend a lot of time sitting in tree branches since Griffonstone didn’t have many that weren’t the size of a city block. My legs ached from the awkward position I had to lay on the branch, but that didn’t matter. I was focused. A little discomfort was a small price to pay if it meant I didn’t miss my mark.
Hour three of my stakeout, give or take. My stomach rumbled and my eyes sagged, but still I waited. I had to be here if they went by. I had to know what they were doing.
I had always figured some sort of underground market existed in the nicer, more civil parts of the world like Equestria and Hippogriffia, but no signs of it were evident while I was in school. It had to be smaller business than what went on in the back alleys of the Griffon Empire, but I knew it was there. There was money in it, and I could get in on it. I just needed to find the way in.
Silverstream would never approve of this.
I let out a breath as the incident from earlier ran through my head again. The awkwardness. The lies, each one another shovelful of dirt out of the hole I’d dug for myself. She had come so close to finding out the truth. I came within an inch of giving her a tell-all worthy of the tabloids. If that happened, the metaphorical hole would have doubled as my grave.
And then Diamond said to be honest with her. That was crazy talk! The more I thought about it, the more I realized that I was in too deep now. No matter what I did, what I said, she would find out. She would be hurt. She would stop talking to me and our friend group at school would fragment.
I was living on borrowed time anyway, so what did it matter?
Forget that noise.
More griffon brooding. What he scheming about tho? Find out on Tuesday!
Excited for the new chapter
