Dear Patrons,
We are officially over the goal of ten chapters ahead of free release on Royal Road. Currently 16 chapters ahead. Unfortunately I did not have time to edit and post RoD's first chapters, that will come sometime during the coming week.
Tentatively the minimum chapters this week for HTG will be three (I suspect it will be more though).
Have a great week everyone!
Respectfully,
Godric

Also as a bonus, I will be adding the first few chapters of Respec on Death, a LitRPG I am dabbling...
