Like other people I have been feeling rather uninspired this weekend. Actually I've spent more time hacking C/GTK than writing. But I did battle through to the end of scene 6, and then went back and inserted an extra scene (4a) to fix some broken continuity.

Running total is 4740 on chapter 5 - and I think I can do some cheating again for the next bit ;)

Excerpt:
"Yes my Lord. Perhaps…" Farll hesitated. "Perhaps you need to… deal with him. Before the other Guild leaders start to defy your authority."
Cortz was surprised at Farll's aggression. "Really D'kon? And how do you propose that I act against him? Should I order the Skurty Guild to beat him senseless?"
Farll looked abashed. "No my Lord. But you are the K'ten – surely you have power to discipline even the K'nel?"
"You will find, D'kon, that much of a K'ten's power is vested in the loyalty of his people."

I think eventually sheer bloody knackeredness can set in. Well done plugging on with it.
