My dear readers, I have good news and bad news.

Let's begin with the bad news first.

Tzeentch's curse must be more potent than I thought for the chapter of Extinction 11-3 is small, far smaller than it had been in a small time: think about it: a mere 38,000 words! Merely 103 pages (word format)!

This is why taking a (brief) holiday to refresh my inspiration is vital. As such, I will be absent from Sunday (12) to Friday (17). So please note I won't answering any questions or post during this (short) period of time.

The good news, of course, is that the next chapter of the Weaver Option is completed.

And it ends with an absolutely evil cliffhanger. Am I not that generous?

No, no please don't answer, your silent praises are the only reward I want, in my benevolent (and fortunatley inexistent) tyranny.

As for the rest of the schedule once I will return.

11-3 will be updated as soon the betas will have finished it. 

I will begin the writing of another chapter of The odds were never in my favour the days after my return, and the monthly update (Third Task) will be delivered as soon as possible.

Then I will try to give one update for the other stories, especially those I have unfortunately neglected those last months...this should keep me busy most of June and July, I think.

The rest of the news...will have to wait for a bit.

The unbetaed chapter will be sent soon, for some it might be today, for others tomorrow, who knows...

What else...

Ah yes.

I was here the day the Emperor slew Horus.

You know it hadn't occurred to me to compare the word count to say an actual book, this "small" chapter is half as big as the first harry potter book.

Thanks for the update. Enjoy your holiday, and please, take extra time if you need/want it.

Holy crap....evil is not enough to describe that dreadful cliffhanger you left us... Hope you enjoy that holiday of yours. I really love the odds were never in my favor, but just this once... I kinda hope you start 11-4 earlier. ahaha...

Take care and farewell.

Thank you for the chapter. It was very exciting. I think the lower word count increased the quality. Two things bothered me though. First the Fields of Pharsalus are only 20 km wide. That seems way to narrow for 200+ Titans to fight in. Yet that narrowness doesn't seem to have shaped the battle between the Titans at all. That bothers me. Second, I am very very surprised by Aurelia Malys' behavior. I thought she had learned some humility from Commorragh. Hauling Taylor on this quest against her will is the absolute height of arrogance! What happened, what is she seeing, to make her risk this? She is gambling the existence of her race and her God that Taylor will successfully ascend and return to the Imperium and prevent them from seeking vengeance. This seems utterly out of character. I'm astonished.

Excellent chapter. And once again we have proof positive the only good eldar is a dead eldar. Even when they're 'helping' they screw you over.

Gabriel Meadow

Wow. I do believe the last third of the chapter is a solid reminder of why blindly worshiping Gods is a bad thing. The Four are indeed sore losers, and hypocrites of the highest order. If they wanted the Word Bearers to succeed, they should have held off the Flesh Change curse to give them more of a chance. Now, even a Primarch isn't going to be able to break heavily fortified defenses with a huge numerical superiority with only under 7,000 Chaos Space Marines. Second, the Emperor himself suggested that Aurelia is doing all this on the instructions of the Laughing God. Otherwise how do you explain her being so desperate to make Taylor do this. Unfortunately, this has blinded her to the fact the QUEEN OF BLADES thinks this is a bad idea, and that what she's done will certainly ruin whatever potential deal the Eldar had at a minimum.

The fact that you think (and comparatively it is) that only 38k words is small makes me worry for your poor wrists…. That said I’m to selfish to do anything to encourage you to stop as this is one of my favorite web novels!

Before this, I had some sympathy for the Eldar. After the Laughing God and Aurelia's latest stunts, extermination is too good for them. The one thing about them that royally pisses me off is that they still think they know better, and this is despite a true Eldar telling them otherwise. Well, doing things that screw over other races will have consequences. Yeah, better for the galaxy is to be done with these morons once and for all.

Hunter

Man I can't wait to get the email with the chapter eagerly await it. I'll have a 2 hour flight to dissect the minute details. Would love to see more interaction between Weaver and Hsiang'la due to foreshadowing by you regarding there relationship and previous statements by the C'Tan that they won't be safe from there ai revolting until they get "real gods".

Vega

Sorry for the double post. I am super hyped about Taylor’s ascension even though I was hoping QA would make an appearance and then they would 2(?)v1(?) the endless swarm to get to the next level.

Hunter

Just finished the chapter I’m dying to see Taylor “ascend” and how she’ll react to the Eldar forcing her to ascend. When the Queen of the Blades says the power is not meant to be shared that means the Eldar are trying to piggyback off her ascension to empower one of there new gods and cergorath?

Hunter

I hope you release the next update soon for WO that cliffhanger is agonizing. I really enjoy WO and your pjo story they’re both awesome, and we have a massive cliff hanger with Weaver being on Horus’s flagship and the last shard required for her to ascend being there.

A pity we never got to see Behemoth face off against Weaver's fleet of warships before its demise. I wonder how many psychic hyperbeams the battlefleet could take with their psychic shields.

Hunter

Would love to see how the Silent King reacts to Weaver beating Imotekh and her alliances with other Necrons, and her "ascension".

Hunter

regarding Weavers aspect of Sacrifice does that only include sacrifice occurring in the present and of Human life or can she gain power from sacrifice in the past and future due to how the warps time not being linear?

Hunter

My life spans millennia. Legions have risen to test me….My ascendance is inevitable. A day, a year, a millennium—it matters not. I hold the patience of stone and the will of stars. Your striving is insignificant. Let your death be the same. Honestly could imagine weaver or the emperor saying something along that line. “ I will not be contained. I cannot be redeemed. Death is all that remains, and you will not kill me.” Erberus would say something like this tbh.

I have arrived at a hypothesis of what the knife-eared plan is and yes it kind of logical for that race. What do the Eldar need the most now that they have a new incoming goddess of birth? The simple answer is they need access to an Anthem preferably an Eldar diety so they can have more "aspect warriors" that can fight chaos. Realistically this is not happening QOB has stated why new Anthems are not coming into existence. So the laughing god is going to have to invite a foreigner into the pantheon. Remember when LG and QOB were having a chit-chat LG "joked" about how the Eldar could have another option if they worshipped a human? Well, I feel that is the current plan and that knife eared saved after Excesses death would make a perfect priestess for Maelsha'eil Dannan. That is why the idiots want Weaver to complete her trials with their "help". Now the plan to stop her from coming after the long ears is also very simple. Chaos is a sore loser and plans on unleashing a warpstorm following the "damn the cost" principle to make sure IoM suffers losses. C'tan I made a statement about the Eldar's plots. I feel this is wrong the Eldar wanted more champions of chaos to enter the battle and die. All for multiple reasons, every dead Chaos monster is one less horror to worry about, the ever-lying changing bird had not unleashed a personal champion yet, to have more people sworn to sacrifice die, and to buy more time and more time. Time for Maelsha'eil Dannan to ascend, time for Emperor backup plans to come online, time to hit targets Chaos could have easily prevented if they had their future sight, and more time before the three get feed up and pay the high-end price of creating a warp storm.

Hunter

I hypothesize that the remaining primarchs fighting in the battle if they do survive and come with Weaver to Terra they'll reunite the legions of old.
