My writing is so hectic these days – I’ll produce 3,000 words on a Saturday, then nothing for the following 5 or 6 days. Ah well. As long as I can write and take my story where it needs to be taken, I’m happy.
I reworked part of the plan for what will happen next. In half a chapter, my group of characters will be in Calan, capital of one of the most Kazaran-unfriendly realms on the continent, and I’ll be able to have fun with the local representants of the Church. Why, telepaths in a city where they’re outlawed, two strangers coming from a continent rumored to be the Demons’ turf, a High Inquisitor wanting to make sure the summer Concilium goes as well as possible, a half-Kellenin* thief (I don’t want to call them Dark Elves anymore), followed by three pure-blood Kellenim* looming over the Archbishop to fulfill a goal known by themselves only? That can only be fun.
Two secondary characters have made an appearance, too. Marcus of Trano, secretary to Archbishop Averen of Calan, and a man who holds… quite an amount of secrets when it comes to the Kazaris. I can’t wait to have him and Kheril have their little meeting. And Domio, roaming swordsman with a certain loyalty to the Guild of Thieves (or, rather, to its Master Agas Blackhand). Always useful to have a swordsman in town, really.
* If anyone were ever to wonder, Kellenin=singular, Kellenim=plural. No ’s’. That’s how korai language goes (for this form of words).
