Content

I am once again here to offer you a main-arc poll. In that this is a poll for the most central chapters, and a few I know I want to write. You may imagine that there are definite, pressing arcs that we will get to. This will help me plan for September.

It may be a disruptive month for my writing. I'll keep you updated, as ever, but it just means this bi-monthly vote counts. Go ahead and tell me what you're feeling.

Comments

Travis Beecher

Is Hraace a misspelling or does my memory suck?

Jacob Cook

Let’s go Other Fae!!!!

Nothingman

I know it has no shot but I want that [Clown] chapter

Aifos

Slayer! Slayer! Slayer! Slayer!!!!

Nik

I just want Antinium chapters again. Why do so few want the mystery of the Antinium?

RedMonty

Omg it’s incredibly tempting to switch my vote…which will I will probably do

Tor Daniel Nielsen

Couldn't agree more "trust the clown 🤡" can't wait to hear more about Tom

Zach

What if I want all of them?

Cat Face

Mrsha chapter next please

Travis Beecher

I enjoy reading about Mrshas helping the silver swords. I also think that'll be a good opportunity to segue into what some of the other parties are doing in the new lands

Dwayne Patterson

It feels like it's been years since the last time we visited the clown

Jordan

This is going to be a close poll

brunch

Flos sent the horns there for some sort of hero test

prentice barry

The pain of choice when I want them all

Andrew

Numbtongue!

Travis Beecher

Oh YEAAAAA. That's right. Thanks! I couldn't find it on the wiki 😅

CaliGlory

I have so much love the horns, but I’m so curious and interested in Ylawes group and the new lands, but I’m also very much savoring the tragic anti-Hero of a tale of Tom the Clown. Gonna have to go with the horns on this one, at the end of the day, it’s always the horns.

Oliver93

I want to see what the kib,the horns and the silver swords are up too.

Loki388

The clown you fools

Miles Kidder

Wow, over 900 votes in ... Twenty minutes? I didn't even know there were that many of us.

Matthew Knight

We are Legion! Or just desperate for the next chapters

Chris Fey

I want Tom because I want both to see the dyed lands, and because I want him to finally get out that the Blighted Kingdom is being the summoning.

Zack

she's got ~8,500 patreon readers, over half pay for early chapters and stuff.

Tim Baril

Chose detective story to see Pirate flex their skills.

Miles Kidder

... Really? I knew there were a lot of us, I went over the math with my brother one time, but ... That's a pretty absurd number. How'd you come to it?

A

So very desperate

Joe DeForrest

Honestly, Tom's chapter where he goes mad is one of the best you've ever written. He's one of my favorite characters out of the outstanding cast you've created.

Vivian Duncan

All of them. What a great story!

Pitchblack

Anything but the Clown

Sam Maloney

It’s on the about page of patreon 8500 members. Only 6014 paid members though so only 6014 possible voters.

Miles Kidder

Thank you for pointing that out. I am pretty oblivious

Bladereader42

Anything but clown. Although until the last batch of chapters I would have said the same about emperor anything to do with the emperor.

Luna

Anything but starvation

limabean

Every single one 😍😍😍😍😍

Adamas

We need to revist the horns

DAK

Ah, Tom. I hate those chapters so much. Almost as much as I hate Roshal chapters, and it’s for the same reason. What kind of wretched dead god thinks a loss of autonomy and Self is worthy of a skill which then continues to dig itself into the ground? [slave] is so awful. Taking bipolar disorder and codifying it into Skills and classes that further enforce being a prisoner of mental illness — bleh. But the story and writing— so well done. And I’ll read it with an elevated heart rate the whole way through if it wins.

Jimi Kane

Almost all of these sound enticing (the Clown is too disturbing for me) and . . . it’s becoming apparent that TWI has embarked on an audacious experiment in massively multiplayer non-linear storytelling — basically a MMORPG in narrative form. About 10 distinct character groups have received at least a novel’s worth of attention. At least that many plot threads and cliffhangers have been left dangling, many for months. Almost no plot arcs have been resolved (Durene’s, I suppose). The main character has appeared about as often as Volume 8, when she was literally a popsicle stranded in the lands of the dead. And four of the main arcs in the poll — we’ve abandoned the notion that these are “monthly” side-stories because now everything is a side story that runs for an entire month or longer — simply expand the POV focus still more. It’s exhilarating and bold and brilliant . . . and also jarring, fragmented, and frustrating. Pirate’s track record suggests that Innworld will stick the landing . . . eventually . . . but it may well be a long, bumpy, uncomfortable ride.

Zach

I'm imagining his story will get happier soonish. Both Erin and Tom are on the same continent now. I can't imagine that's a coincidence, and she helped him before. They have a lot in common too, just expressed very, very differently. I'm hoping the clown chapter is him slowly breaking away from the Blighted Kingdom. The princesses he was close to already are doubting the honor of their father, so it would be fitting for him to get his moment soon too.

Magnus

Antinium and Starvation!

ProSailor22

The Other Fae chapter is Nerin if that helps.

David Alden

I don't really want to have a say in the direction of the story. But I'm not a fan of the clown, so maybe literally anything except a chapter about or heavily featuring them.

HumptyDumpty

I want all of them and Persua's story from the last poll

Jeremy A-R

it has to be the clown

Dominik Zettelmann

Love all the options, but voted for the Horns. Go Horns!

Tardy

A clown sweep (yes Mzion I have stolen your pun)

Tardy

Just one small clown car for one long ride

Kef

Get up you clown!

Lua

One of the reasons I joined the Patreon was the ability to vote for Klb in every single poll that featured him, so... Hoping for some Silly Old Man escapades<3

Christopher

The clown and Erin are both on Baleros tho…

Jud

I mean, my preferences would be Emperor Laken Godart, Bird, or maybe something about Aklat Vunn.

Tnoz

Going for clown. Second choice would be Ryoka because she's been out of focus these days as the deuteragonist. Third choice is the Horns to see what the heromakers are about. Klbkch seems a bit aimless even if I do want to see him level, and Zevara might advance into the Izril Interpol plot but it seems a bit low in importance compared to the othes. Silver Swords is last place for me.

David Alden

And? So are many other, more interesting characters. I don't enjoy reading about the clown. I just don't. I'll probably skim at best or outright skip a clown chapter, and figure out what happened via context in the following chapters.

Jeremiah Marok

The clown is the worst character in the world.

Carlos Correa

Finally caught up. I'm really excited for the adventures of the slayer! Been waiting for a buffy/erin crossover :P

Jennifer Hoff

not a fan of the Clown storyline

Sizzzauce

Yeah, but we know that Pirate won't skip the horns; but the rest of these subjects have a good possibility of not being written if they aren't voted for.

CaliGlory

The Horns are Erin’s, they’ve acknowledged that they are completely biased, which I think is hilarious. So I think you’re right, there’s no way pirates skipping out on their story. But I do think the other stories will eventually get written about too. What do I want most? I just can’t say no to the horns.

CaliGlory

True! His story is long overdue, but I just know he’s going through it, feeling like a failure poor guy.

CaliGlory

I love that she’s made it her job to use the theater to check up on everyone. She’s a good girl

CaliGlory

I’m actually so surprised the blighted king allowed the earthers to leave

Darrin Adams

Go go goblin slayer! :P I'm not clowning around, well maybe.

Bobito

Does “the other fae” cover Vofea? We haven’t touched on her in ages

Just_A_Girl

Voting for the Horns all the way!

Eric Mueller

Wait, is that Goblin Slayer, or Klbkch?

Darrin Adams

OMG don't know. Hopefully goblin

Christopher

I’m hoping that Rabbiteater and Ksmvr are not on here because they naturally are the next couple of chapters.

Ryan Hillard

I really want to read more about the clown, I think it's been long enough that it can be justified (I think a portion of the audience understandably seems to not like Tom). But hear me out, he's in the colored lands right? Maybe we get more info on all the weird gnarly fraerlings that live out there. Or more on the deathless as they are sort of tied to Tom, maybe a little bit about the demons and the humans that are with them. I don't know, I just enjoy reading about Tom. Thank you Pirate, excited to see what you come up with no matter what it is :)

Zack J

I'm actually a big fan of Tom. I really enjoy his character set up and growth. Being the crazy guy but also the only one to realize the BK is as evil as the worst of the worst. That said I'm voting for the Heroes

orion

I didn't like the Clown storylines early in the series, but Aba has gotten alot better, and this will only be an interlude (only like 30k words most likely) so I'm actually looking foward to a Clown interlude now.

Nosya Bankhead

Absolutely, the only reason people don't like the clown arc was because every other character in his vicinity felt like a dud.

S. K.

horns go horns, vote for the heroes now

Andrew Lechner

They are also in Baleros, so they would most likely be included with Tom's chapter, or in the next main Erin Chapter.

Pheonixarcher

I want to see what kylb was doing with that gnoll prostitute

David

... Maybe we could get Clown chapters for Spooky season? I do want them, but boy are they things I need to mentally prepare for.

Stevie

Loving the Silver Swords in the New Lands arc cant wait to hear more

Charles T Martin

It's been a long time since we read about Tom. (I'm not even certain on his name anymore.)

Flaming Cat

@CaliGlory They are under escort and he seems to be trying to kill Tom off. It is in character for the BK to underestimate the rest of the world. My guess is that he his escort is killed off and he is rescued by the goblin lord, who then gets “driven back” by Forgotten Wing who “rescue” him from the goblin lord. (No active conspiring needed between the two: the goblin lord would benefit from the world being distracted by being at war with the BK and Niers benefits from turning the world against the BK as well as being the one to break the news or at least be seen arranging for someone more reputable to do so. He might even get Silvania’s help against jungle tails if he is sufficiently helpful.

Tijay Arnie

Has any recent interlude been short though?

Berlin

Ayooo wha-

Berlin

🤡🔪

DocAnthea

It doesn't, because it's in the last place in the poll anyways :(

Arg

This Clown and Dr chapters for October, seems like a waste to do murder clown a month early.

Jamie Messier

Where are the Horns right now again?

Andrew Lechner

Lord it's close. I wish Pirateaba could do both, considering that more explanation on the hero class would be quite relevant to Tom's story, but Tom has not gotten proper focus since Volume 7, in 2020! Vote for the Clown! The horns are guaranteed their time in the sun, and this will be the last chance to see the Clown for a while yet.

Zack

Are you kidding? More Horns and exposition around Hero's? not even a question for me.

DocAnthea

I highly doubt this is the last we'll see of Tom in this volume. Considering he's in Baleros, he's bound to meetup with our protagonist at some point lol.

DocAnthea

Thinking that'll change now considering he's away from those idiots now and on the same continent as Niers and Erin lol.

Andrew Lechner

Have any of these polls ever been this close?

RedMonty

I’ll be damned if Clowns vs Horns isn’t some kind of metaphor.

Byron Hu

anything but the damn clowns

kyle

Horns are 1 vote away....

kyle

its a perfect tie lets go horns!!!

kyle

AYYY its two above the clown!!! tbh i'd prefer both

Jamie Messier

So the winning choice by two right now after I switch mine. Cool thanks for heads up.

Caleb Moody

Damn I really wanted the silver swords poor Ylawes needs some relief but I get it as I love the horns too.

Christopher

Can we just vote for Erin? Cause there is no point making it a vote when the obvious choice always wins.

Ford-Thomas Frank Loveland

You say that but the top 2 are currently ties and ahve been neck and neck this whole time. This time it's not so obvious

Caleb Moody

Haha I prefer the horns over the clowns story. I know his could potentially connent to fErin and Neirs but I can wait for that.

Alex Lane

I forgot to mark heroes!

RedGoblin

I prefer silver swords but… we had enough of heroes lets uS MeaT mAD TOm!

Herb Powell

Since the two I want most are ahead already: Play that Færie music, write boy!

Nik

I voted for everything but clown just out of spite

Nik

Erin isn't an option in this poll so it's still safe to assume she would win the poll by a mile

Blue Talon

I think he is talking to the ghost. It is his class, and now everyone is in the same place as the goblins.

Jordan

Common we need just a few more votes for the horns

Jordan

I just don’t care much for the clown…🤷‍♂️

Jordan

Same

Jordan

Almost there! Let’s go Hraace!

DocAnthea

Wow that's close. I hope Clown keeps ahead, but I wish even more that we get both of them eventually :D

RedGoblin

I only hope we may get a Rhir earther perspective review after the whole battle at sea

Blaize

Can we please make more of Erin? Like 2 for Erin and 1 arc? Needs me some Erin and ulvama. Poke.

RedGoblin

I honestly feel like that relationship is what erin wants is a simple platonic relationship and ulvama fits the bill and idk if she herself knows it, want to see more :) would this consider herself partially asexual? since she herself doesn’t want anything sexual involved relationship would demand

Jordan

I have a feeling that Erin is going to appear in the Lyonet chapter that come out today. I think she will finally contact Lyon through the pavilion of secrets

Jordan

We’ve got ourselves a nail biter folks.

Scott Soper

Just sayin': Clown is also probably Nerry-Neirs or Rabbiteater and friends.

Ashdhdg

ITS SO CLOSE! THE HORNS ARE AT 1112 VOTES AND OUR FAVORITE CLOWN IS AT 1111!! EVERYONE VOTE FOR TOM!

Anthony guy

Poor Tom has been waiting years for this moment. Let my boy live.

Anonymous

I believe the other Fae is the one that we know nothing about who was teased when Shaestral got the count wrong

Byron Hu

I may have to create extra patreon accounts just to keep the clown down!!!

PearsMan

Rip no Zevera chapter

DenverDD

Heroes CHARGE!

Coloureve

Always down for the horns, but I wish Rabbit was an option. Guess we did have a lot of goblins recently, still, would be nice to be back where Erin is.

DocAnthea

Did you read the most recent chapter? Also yeah, I wish Erin was an option :(

WESTON FRENCH

We need two people for horns to win

Byron Hu

LFG Horns!!! Tie

Joel Williams

1st time in my life as an American where my vote mattered.

Blaize

Sad. I wish she would make an appearance in every story arc.
