I relished in that comfort, relished (no 'in') or reveled in My entire setup revolved around Agony in fact. I couldn’t imagine being able to kill the bats without it. Now wrong, but I like it better if you finish the first sentence after Agony. In fact, I couldn't imagine... With that pain in tearing at my mind, I got back to killing bats. With that pain tearing... I hopped back onto the bat killing train yet again. bat-killing I reached level twenty eight, twenty-eight Without missing a beat, I hopped back onto the bat killing train yet again. Two hours later, I reached level twenty eight, putting a point into constitution. He reached 30 endurance at level 25 and resolved to get to 35 endurance first. How did he get there with only two levels so that he now puts a point into Constitution? Unless he was at 33 endurance when he got the 30 perk. If so, maybe a mention that he hit 33 when he put that point it a few sentences earlier? I chopped it up to the dungeon’s influence on them. chalked In each of your blows carries the weight of death for this reason, Each of your blows Far faster than me. Far faster than I (was). I include the implied verb because this is a situation that almost everyone messes up. In fact, since you're writing Daniel's train of thought, it's probably correct to use the incorrect pronoun if he would. However, when you come to the point where you're writing Torix speaking, you might want to keep track of as I (would), than she (does) and the like. I also think it applies to the word 'like' but sometimes finishing a sentence 'like he' looks weird even to me, so I just include the verb. 'like he did'. Pulling its face from the rock, my punch collided with its nose. As it pulled its face... My wrist was a lumpy mush. Not wrong, but I like: My wrist was lumpy mush. better. It also has the same rhythm as the next sentence that way. Like me, it refused to die. And here's that situation with 'like' I mentioned. I'd write, 'Like I did, it refused to die." Except that Daniel might think and say 'Like me.' I replaced it with a bloody pile of mush that rested on its face. Using mush again in just a few sentences, perhaps 'bloody mass of flesh'? Lumbering Brute(lvl 3) That's new. I think I remember Dreadnought Brute from before. Not life changing, but better than before. life-changing Even if they leveled super slow and didn’t do much, super-slowly Hiding behind a boulder, a pile of insects writhing beside the pool. Hiding behind a boulder, I spotted a pile of insects writhing beside the pool. "You wallow in darkness, and so, you've lost your way like a little lamb...I can help you, little lamb, but for a price paid in blood and flesh and bone." "You wallow in darkness, and so you've lost your way like a little lamb. I can help you, little lamb, but for a price paid in blood and flesh and bone." I could do this, and I doubted the monster resisted the damage. could resist Fighting them, a bat’s maw opened. As I fought them, a bat opened its maw. Whenever I killed one, I inspected one of the bodies. When I killed one giving them far greater guises in the gloom far greater concealment I grip its insides before smashing it into the ground. gripped Unable to bite, I lifted it above my head and growled. With it unable (original wording means Daniel is unable to bite.)

That energy infused with a blue miasma thicker than water. just infused, no 'with'. Or maybe the energy congealed into a blue miasma? Because infused implies the blue miasma was already there and the energy becomes part of it.

Maybe a quick mention of the effort to stay on top of the water? I doubt he floats now.

2021-07-11 20:58:07 +0000 UTCI don’t know if I want more development between Daniel and Baldag-Ruhl before he mentions killing him with Agony after that first meeting and the quest. But I think it needs something more. Either a bit more time and interaction or more of a motivation and explanation from Dan. Not sure if I’m projecting it from my own wants but just some feedback. Loving it regardless.

2021-07-01 12:20:34 +0000 UTCI made the pdf file at the bottom as some users requested. I hope that the formatting is better for you guys. It definitely appears cleaner to me, as Patreon's text formatting sucks. As for the actual differences in content, I had to make a few. Agony and the Determinator trees aren't naturally occuring. This plays into the Baldag-Ruhl sequence well, and it forshadows what occurs some without giving it away. No editor for any of this content either of course, but there's fewer errors than before. Let me know if you find any obvious ones.
