Day 20 (Team July)

Well over midnight here and busy morning tomorrow, so I thought I'd post early again.

Here's today's prompt for your writing updates and for any extracts, thoughts, or comments you might have.

Keep the fires burning! :))

Comments

Well, they both know the importance of having an heir, although an earlier part of the conversation was about how it would be better for Firiel not to try and have a child immediately, to allow her time to settle in and not be too young (it is really hard to work out how the ages work with their lifespans)... but they are both thinking about and planning for the future. (btw I'm totally ignoring Aranath's birthdate given in HOME as it is two years before the date in the Appendices for Firiel and Arvedui's marriage)

The web of relationships is amazing. I'm gleaning that Nicky and Bridie aren't biological siblings or are they half-siblings, one from the wrong side of the blanket?

Nicky's parents adopted Bridie when they brought her back to England with them at the end of the War. A bit morally debatable in some respects, but she might not have survived to adulthood if they'd left her behind.

I wish I could find the trick that would make writing proceed faster on this one; it seems immune.

I keep trying to tell myself just to blat words on page and edit later but that's not how I usually work.

Now if only I could find a good title...

I hope you're better by now! And I really like the way the two of them speak more or less in tandem, it's very entertaining :)

THe pollution got past its air filters?

Thanks! They're only in the story a short time; maybe I'll have to give them a return appearance.

The armour suffered several cracks due to the ride through the Rift. The pollution entered the inside of the suit through those cracks. And the creature within the suit has no immune system whatsoever.
