Not a friend, not an enemy; occasionally, he’s a member of the Justice League. It’s sure to be fun times as she meets him as well as a few others who don’t qualify as human anymore, or who’ve never been. Such as…
Greetings, Lantern Granger. My name is Jason Blood.

ssjSega Wrote:New chapter ready for you guys a lot sooner than expected! Although, there's a bit of a caveat that came up.

See, when I was writing, I originally intended to write the remainder of the factory trip, but then I found another solid enough area to stop, and I kinda lost the drive to continue past that point in a single chapter.

Plus, I figured that this would help keep the chapter's length just right, seeing as the previous chapter may have been just a bit too long for some. That isn't to say I'll be doing this for all chapters from now on. If I find a good enough stopping point for a chapter, I'll take it, but if I feel like I haven't and it goes on for 15K words or beyond, I'll keep writing.

It's just my luck that this has happened twice in a row so far. But either way, I like what I've written, so it feels like a win for me regardless.

It stands to reason, then, that removing the jungles would only serve as definitive proof of the truth hiding behind the trees...

Notes:
I believe that this is the FIRST time ever in OtSoT where a story is focused on a Monsterverse-original Kaiju, hope it is a fun read!

Yrsillar Wrote:Ling Qi smiled. "These folk songs have a fun rhythm to them. Perfect for a long trip."

"It does certainly make the path roll on faster," Bao Qian agreed. He sat up front, his wide brimmed hat shading him from the snow. "But we are here. If you want to speak with the spirits of lowland snows, they are having their frolic."

"Probably the best place to start." Ling Qi accepted Hanyi's hand to help her up.

She had at last left her trusty chair behind in the newly christened hamlet of Shenglu. She still swayed a little, but she could at least walk as a mortal did without tiring too quickly now. Embers still smoldered in her dantian and in the ashen impurity clogging many of her meridians, but some proper exercise would be just the thing to kickstart this stage of her recovery.

"Let's show these rowdy fairies who’s the boss!" Hanyi declared. "Mister Bao, you make sure the camp is comfy, so Big Sis can come back and rest, okay?"

"Such a grave task. I am much honored," Bao Qian said dryly. "Do try not to stay out too late, ladies. I recall Lady Cai instructed me that you still require medications."

"I would never be so reckless," Ling Qi claimed.
