Status
Currently working on rewrites in chapters up till this point, adjusting the timeline slightly for clarity, improving certain early fight scenes and much of the dialog that gave unwanted impressions. (I.E. Where i wrote something simply because it felt funny however it negatively impacted readers opinion of characters or story as a whole.)
10/6: working on typing up 22 and some random edits as the week goes on. we moved up to 50 hours a week so between that and my business start up its hard to dedicate time to this, but imma keep at it!
Rewrites im on chapter 7 sadly, still working on these, tho the reviews are discouraging... very discouraging
Been looking for an artist to commission, haven't found the right one yet. art style/quality/price <<
The intent is still to complete a version of the story up until this point and publish, hopefully that's completed in the next month or so.
Progress every day.
Oh, I need to do a full review on a story to join The Group, any victims er volunteers?
You can bug me on twitter this weekend to write! Or motivate me to write even more? https://twitter.com/Docnoximus
Basically once i have time, most likely Sunday, this page will have updated facts about the various race/clan/tribes, bestiary, i'll give away real world location equivalents, and character profiles with physical descriptions to the best of my ability. Hell i may even attempt more weapon art.
This just had to post here because i didn't want it in the middle of stuff since we cant edit chapter order yet.

Dialog improvements grammar wise, a metric shit ton of them, taking days.
Trying to give readers a better sense for how Nox feels about things early on. He comes across overly nonchalant. Intentional, but there was more then needed.
Basically, Lupa treats Nox far better, quite a bit more dialog between them, She's still a bitch to everyone else, also more added to that effect.
pushed back their first time, see timeline.
Asta given some lines early on, felt like she was a bit out of nowhere suddenly there character wise.
Fight scenes improved
Timeline adjusted for well, fucks sake lol
Added more dialog for Freki, key point added in prologue to help clarify the age rates
Dummed down Walt a bit in early chapters, it shouldn't ever feel like the siblings are any more intelligent than Nox.
Lighted some of the slapstick directed towards Nox
Removed portion of Raijin's introduction which pointlessly berated Nox. Looking for more of this as I go.
going to add more to Mora's character in her first week, for clarity as they leave yoden and in sigdun. In short: Shy, Bookworm, Berserker.
Rewriting the willingly arrested scene to give clarity to its purpose.
Characters,

Mhaieiyu - Arco 1: El Sindicato [Spanish]
El tiempo se detuvo cuando todos los engranajes de la sociedad encajaban a la perfección. Había quienes toleraban menos, pero aun así, la vida y el trabajo se hacían monótonos en la petrolífera megápolis del Hub. Aquellos con la voluntad para oponerse se verían con una desagradable visita con los oficiales del autoritario y tiránico Sindicato. Y así, donde había ley y colaboración había sencillez. Pero cada década, esta fría sociedad se derrumba ante la presencia del mismísimo infierno que golpea contra sus murallas. Únete al torpe pero intrépido Tokken, un adolescente extrañamente ingenuo que por fín está viendo el mundo por lo que es, así como al alborotado e imprudente Emris, un travieso militar alcohólico que se juega la vida con impunidad, mientras intentan coexistir con la tormenta infernal que se cierne sobre ellos. © 2019-2020, Todos los derechos reservados.
