October 26th Katalepsis chapter will be delayed by one week!

Hello everyone! I’ll try to keep this short.

The upcoming Katalepsis chapter will be delayed by one week, both the patron and public chapter; there will be no Katalepsis chapter on the 26th of October. Katalepsis will resume as normal on the 2nd of November!

(I tried to write up a explanation below, but it turned out super long, because I'm anxious and being anxious makes me long-winded! Don't feel obligated to read it or anything, all you really need to know is that Katalepsis will be back as normal nex...

A change to publishing schedules!

Hello all! I’m going to be making a few changes to the publishing schedule for both Katalepsis and Necroepilogos.

This post will be a little complicated, and quite long, so I’ll do a short version first, and then a longer version for anybody interested in the details. Don't feel like you have to read the long version, nobody is in any way obligated!

The short version first.

Hello all!

This week’s Necroepilogos chapter will be delayed by one week; this applies to the patreon advance chapter and the public chapter. Necroepilogos will resume as normal on the 25th of July!

My apologies! This isn’t a health-related or emergency break, this is because of the story itself. I had do this this once before, back in February, and I was really hoping to avoid this kind of break a second time, but my reach has exceeded my grasp.
