Hello again! As promised, I took a bit of time both creating a map of Aby's current layout, as well as going over some of the small sketches I've created since I've started writing. I do have to say, a lot of it is not nearly up to any standards that I'd want to share it.

Looking over the map, once again, I feel a bit bad with how convoluted the layout had become on paper, and how difficult it was to properly get everything to fit onto one page, despite that page being about sixty centimeters by fity centimeters when the last map fit comfortably on something not even half that. Just as it was last time, the map is wildly out of scale, though each 'level' on the lower floors is correct.

As I said, this map made a lot more sense before I drew it out, and I apologize for that. I just hope that the floors are adequately labelled and legible, especially since I plan on expanding this map as future chapters add new floors, as well as improving upon this when I have more time to dedicate to doing so.

Also, I know I promised some more art, but after going through my stuff I really only found a single thing that I remember being completed, as well as something I'm not embarassed to show, and that's because it was mostly just an experimental doodle I made way back when, before the wyvern had grown up to the point he was now.

Anyways, other than that, I'll put my first sketch of the little wyrmling back here too, since this seems like a good way to start having one consistent place for everything I've created.

Anyways, aside from my own three admittedly lackluster bits of art, I mentioned about a month back that I got some fanart! Since I finally made a dedicated art post, I included the piece sent to me by Beryth of Aby and Sela.

It means a lot, and I'm really happy to get anything like this, or even to just see how people like the story and what they think of how I'm doing. Over the coming days/weeks I'll probably be editing this chapter, adding in anything new that I think should be shared for the story. Whenever I do I may rearrange this 'chapter' to be at the front of the list, or maybe before the prologue? I don't know, I'd be happy to take suggestions on what you think I should do.

Now that I have time, I'm going to start going through the comments on the chapter earlier today, as well as the few from Sunday that I missed, so I'll do my best to respond to everyone. And as always, thank you for reading!
