I'm sorry that you'll have to.

BTW, Deleyna, I was debating with Jaime about my desire to start posting my second book here, as soon as this book if finished. He disagrees.

What do you think?

Don't start, Höbin.

This isn't for her or any of the other readers to decide.

I want to start on the main series first. To get Wendell's story going forward before I post your next book.

Why can't you do both?

I'm already spread too thin, my friend. Trust me in that I want you to have each and every opportunity to display your works -- but I must focus on the things that will help us all stay in doors this winter, while staying laser focused on the primary story line.

I promise you, your books WILL be posted.

...in fact, I'm counting on you to expand the Field Guides.

You are?

You're gonna let me complete some of these other mysteries that have plagued my mind about the world?!

Not some...all of them.

I've also been talking to Finley.

He's overly anxious to work with you again and get his own works -- and those reports you mentioned over coffee last month? He wants to publish those together with you.

Perhaps your field books and sketches, also.

So tragic. What a powerful scene at the condemning as well!

I agree. One thing I should have shared and expressed when I reported this, was the change in a brothers writing.

These accounts were written by the Brotherhood themselves, not through a scribe.

As I read the account, you could see the 'stress' in the letters, the shaking hand as the quill touched parchment...and I have to wonder how Brother Owen felt. What he thought as he looked into Mahan's face, or watched the silent screams of pain?

The change in the ink itself tells other stories.

Oh, that is quite good!

Jaime says he's working on getting some of the field sketches prepped, so they can also be displayed from time to time. Maybe not for this book -- since all the artifacts are sealed now, since the original publication. But perhaps the next stories.

That'll be a wonderful way to show what I mean.

Almost missed this one somehow. but I’m glad I came back to it.

So as far as we know Ethany never received the letters? That’s... tragic.
