Okay, the chapter has been sent to the betas, they have acknowledged their reception of it...so I suppose the final escalation can begin, no?

Here comes the full Interlude of Crisis Core, the last one in a while, for all the chapters after that should be giving plenty of attention to Taylor/Weaver and everything she is doing in her Sector.

Plus I don't think I am in the mood to write a 54,000 words-long chapter every time, I profundly apologise for my weakness, but as you perfectly know, dear readers, the flesh is weak...

Anyway. As promised, the writing of the next update of The odds were never in my favour will begin tomorrow.

Writing schedule from now on should be in that order (with should being the dramatic word):

The odds were never in my favour

The Dance is not Over

An Impractical Guide to Godhood

The odds were never in my favour

In the name of the Muses and the Man-Emperor, writing will be done!

I know you said Sanguila was unlikely to be on time would Valentines be likely? Just trying to gauge if it’s likely to be longer due to larger word count. As said in AltHist would really be a fan of a new Krieg leader scene. Also rip Beowulf the one sensible dwari so far pledged to the bank I am curious how/why Russ in the Archibqld scene knew greed was a threat Hope the non interlude shows Redoubtable :-)

Whooooooo! Vulkan Lives!

What an absolute surprise at the end there, had thought Mr Iron Hand would appear first via Bile before Mr Immortal.

Antony444

I do my best to surprise my readers (grin)...

Antony444

Difficult to say right now...it is the betas who will decide, and by which I mean we will see how long it takes to correct this (huge) chapter. And your desires for the next scenes have been duly noted, lol.

Good Chapter I can’t believe you did the surprise Primarch reveal again. A couple of notes near the end, shouldn’t Leman be Lord of Nova Fenris or is Lord of Fenris one of those Honorary titles to things that no longer exist? Also shouldn’t the Custodes have said he is recalled to Terra rather than Holy Terra?

VULKAN LIVES!!!!!

Never Mind

Always enjoyable to see a complete TWO chapter.

Antony444

Honourary thing, plus the weight of traditions and 'things have always been like that'. For millennia, Russ has been known as the Lord of Fenris by the Imperium, you aren't going to change it in a few years. As for Holy Terra...yeah, in hindsight, this may be a mistake of mine, will have to check (though the name of the Throneworld has become so widespread by now...)

So can we get a side short on Russ's Report an the reaction of the the people that have to Read his report, because Russ doing paperwork an how he would write a report sounds funny as hell. I wonder if Missy has gotten the Braids & Sharp Teeth that the Fenrisians are Known for

Antony444

All Primarchs have to do paperwork...to the great despair of a significant majority. One joke during the Heresy was that yes, several of the traitors were denied proper supplies and everything, but at least the evils of bureaucracy were now far away...or so they thought, these naive souls... All of this to say that yes, Russ has had to do write after-action reports, no matter how much he dislikes the activity (and how often he tried to bribe Guilliman for doing them in his place). Missy for the moment hadn't changed style or physical appearance. How long it will stay that way is an interesting question...

Rockinalice

I just imagine how many favor Guilliman is owed by his Brothers for the few times they have Mangaged to find the right thing to bribe him with to do their Paperwork. Or how much Guill thanks his Father that he got the Power that makes fighting Paperwork easier. I just want to see how each of them writes Paperwork an how those who jobs it is to review such papers react. .... What do you Mean that he went Squish when Vulcan went SLAM BOOM? Or how does the Fights in the Administratom go over being given the Privilege to read Guill reports rather then someone like Russ

Antony444

It is more or les canon that the bureaucratic duties were one reason Horus felt someone else should have been chosen as Warmaster, and why he definitely had crippling doubts about not being the Primarch for the job. Destroy all enemies on a planet? No problem. Compile enough reports for ten Expeditionary Fleets without Guilliman helping in the background? Err...

Forgottenone

Uh.. did any of these chaos fools not pay attention to the fact that the stompys, dwarfs, long beards race carry grugdes? By accepting that 'fleet', all the clans are now going to be coming for you. Talk about uniting a race back together again. That said, all Weaver has to do is kindly ask both priest orders, and then the core will be shipping out ore for food supplies. Possible ports to build the capital ships IoM needs, far away from their political opponents, have just opened up.

Nicola Chen

Each time you post a chapter I'm unsure if I love you for the sheer awesomeness, or hate you because it means I have to wait more for your other stories lol. Keep up the good work, you are an astounding author!

Antony444

Now that you mention it, Chaos in general may, just may, have overlooked how much the Dwarves value their grudges...bah, it isn't like they're going to charge out of the Galactic Core with blood in their eyes, right? Right?

Forgottenone

Looks at the pathway Russ made... Sure you can and it might even work if you pray to the emperor of mankind.

Random question related to Enuncia. Since you don't have to be a Psyker to be able to use Enuncia, and as Taylor has gotten multiple metaphysical upgrades now...would she be considered talented / exceedingly capable of using Enuncia if someone taught her at least the start of it? I wonder if using insects to verbalize the words would get around the possible dangers of overuse as well.

Antony444

Taylor would be capable of it, yes. But the risks are...shall we say, extremely high. And all your powers do not provide enough defense if something goes wrong. Needless to say, as the Angel of Sacrifice...Taylor has already enough skills and might that the risks are not justified by the potential gains.

Shiny Umbreon

I think the salamanders will abandon Taylor and follow missy instead

Antony444

'Abandon' is such a big word. The Salamanders aren't here in the story to worship Taylor at every hour of every day, you know. And there are major accords, economic and military, tying Nyx and Nocturne now. Plus even if the Salamanders followed Missy exclusively the moment she came back...well, Missy has been spending a lot of time on Nyx and the Nyx Sector during this life, you know.

Shiny Umbreon

I know but you know what I mean right, I also said that as an exaggeration
