There wasn't much to edit honestly. I found some better words to use and some awesomer descriptions. This is definitely a chapter that gets me pumped and I don't know why I put off editing it for so long.

I finally finished it! Thank you everyone for being so patient! The past few weeks have sucked ASS! Do me a solid and leave me some feedback on this next chapter, please and thank you?

I know I said I'd be posting one more chapter then doing massive rewrites but...

I really wanna just continue the story for a bit since you all were so patient with me. I'm already a 1000 words in on my next chapter. What is everypony's opinion so far? Are you finding the trial interesting? I wanted to take a small break from all the combat since it takes so much time to write and describe everything. Feel free to message me your predictions, but please don't post spoilers publicly.

No matter how hard I tried, this chapter just keeps coming up short. Everything I try to add, breaks the flow of the chapter. I wanted to lengthen it, but there honestly isn't a good place to do it. I'll come back to it later I guess.

Next chapter is going up as long as I don't accidentally sleep through prime time!

Didn't see much in the way of editing. This chapter still feels a tad messy for me, so maybe I'll come back to it.
(EDIT)
Alright, there. Spruced up some descriptions and explained some more stuff. I'm in this middle ground of wanting to explain Taraskan protocol, and not wanting to bore most of you with ideas that you won't care about.

I'm on chapter 5 currently for editing. Ugh some of these chapters are just so...sloppy. Like some sentences are bland and disorganized, others make me wonder how they got past my editing. In my defense, I was still rather new at writing.

Got a bit of work done on the next chapter and I finished editing chapters two and three!

This dialogue was irritating because there's a ton of dialogue that has to happen at this time. I tried to break it up with a few brief moments of interactions between characters and backstory, but it still feels dull to me. This is also one of those ties where I wanted to hint at something, while secretly planning something else. There's still that worry of it coming across as bad writing, but owell.

AAAGGGHHH! I've never tried to describe people doing choreographed dances before. Describing the beat of a drum and fire twirling, I just...uuuggghhh. I already wrote everything in the chapter that isn't dance/music related and it feels like I just have this massive hurdle.

I realized I misworded some of the depictions of where he is. It was crystal clear in my head , but this is how you learn hehe.

Chapter 37
There was like...several words missing in chapter 37. I was actually shocked how it happened without me every noticing.

Chapter 38
Made like...there was a brick of dialogue, split it in half. That was it haha!

So in this one, some of my chapters are formatted weird cause around this time, fimfic was having issues with uploading a doc from google docs and copypaste got weird too. Didn't see much that needed changing, but I spruced up the formatting.

I think I may have edited this chapter before. There wasn't much to fix except the usual and a few odd descriptions.

Honestly, if you're waiting for my edits to finish, don't bother. I'm just kind of nit-picking and looking for things to spruce up. I haven't found much, if anything, in the way of errors.

Agh chapter 46 is kicking my ass! There are so many friggin long convos! Don't get me wrong, they're all important, but uuuggghhh! I think that's been one of the main challenges with writing KOTD, is all the different emotions this novel has. A lot of it I REALLY have to be in the mood. Some chapters are me "venting" after having a nasty panic attack or just old memories from my PTSD.
