I the morninng, I wanted to do more with this chapter, but time did not allow it. I considerd continuing the PM after this one, but because I want to start the PM with Samuel waking up at home, a chapter break works.
I’ll admit to a few minor rewrites in the PM chapter. I had no where else to go with it and still had time to write, so I fixed up a few scenes to better reflect my original plan (such as having Meliliot appear and collapse out in the snow, rather than inside the cave.
The plant life and sunlight at the end of the cave was very much made up as I typed. Not a single word of it was thought up prior to being typed out. I did struggle to figure out how to fit the violet jewel into the chapter.
The month is almost half over. I need to see how much I can stretch out this arc, as after a week, it’s more than halfway completed. There is room for stretching in there.
