"Alright, and then Elegy's gonna... Hm? Eh!? We're already on the last chapter of the Volume!?" was my honest reaction just last night lol. So much happened these past few days in my own life, that I had trouble keeping up with these guys' afterlives. That being said, the current plotline allowed for a good stopping point to end the Volume, so I have no issues with this arrangement.
This Volume is what I like to call the penultimate setup for the finale. Volume 24 of my previous work is very much along the same vein, in that they both are exclusively there to cash out on all the lore I had been building up since their stories' respective starts. Three Volumes left, and they're all gonna be focusing on the conflict that's about to go down. I hope you're as excited as I am, because Heaven's Calling has really been going strong for a long time. Which leads me to my next topic...
I'm off to college! That's right, tonight is actually my last night in my hometown, and I'll be off to college-ville with my buddies early tomorrow morning. It's a bit daunting, but I'm overall excited for what's to come. Don't worry though, this changes nothing for you guys—I'm still gonna be writing and uploading my stories daily.
But enough of the future, how about we discuss some of the things that happened in the current Volume? First of all, I apologize for the rocky pacing at times. Even I felt the quality of those chapters drop significantly, mostly due to my lack of motivation that springs up occasionally. That being said, the law of Cyclicism suggests that all low points are followed closely by equally as tall high points. In other words, I try my best to not let these episodes last and pivot the story and its quality in a better direction. In my opinion, I did pretty well for the last couple of chapters, but in the end—you guys will be the judges of that.

I placed a large focus on Elegy due to his Wildcard status mentioned previously. The Gods really do hate him to the core, huh? I really hope they patch things up between them one day...
We've been introduced to a rather fearsome Staple of Heaven in this Volume as well—the cherubim. It's a sleazy one, capable of mimicking the appearance of your most loved one to try and get you to do as it says. In a way, it's more dangerous for these guys than even the Gods themselves. Ah, but notice how it adopted Vastoria's likeness for Migu, how sweet!
Ehe, jokes aside, the last part of the Volume had thrown quite a wrench in Elegy's plan. I do hope you'll stick around to see how he'll end up resolving it. As he stated, he doesn't mind going down with the ship if it means allowing his friends to live freely and happily... Though, let's all hope it doesn't have to come to that.
That's about all I have to say for now. I'm off to bed early because I've got an early morning of traveling to look forward to, so that's it from me for now. See you all tomorrow with Volume 7, which will come bundled with a BRAND NEW Cover art! Yippie!
