So, the last time we have a scene with Jenn & Gastrope was Chapter 142: Astlan, Stone Finger Camp: Third Period. Prior to this you’d been building things up with them and they were having more and more pagetime. Then nadda. The timing problem is how early you stopped with them after building them up. This is at ~90% of the way through Alpha 3.
Having them pop-up again in Beta 1 after the wedding scene may be too late. What exactly is the Nimbus doing during the very long Chapters 143-144 and what will it mean for the fight on Nysegard?
Heck, it’s been even longer since Ithagar / Rupert.
Yes, they will come back in after Beta 1, I will insert their sections in between existing sections.
There are a couple other ideas/discussions from Alpha2 involving Nimbus/Stone Fingers, I am putting all of that aside to get to Beta 1.
Keep in mind that in the HH that didn’t do an alpha, that started as a beta 1 and we added 40,000 words to it and took out about 10,000 words (the resolution of Darflow and Lilith’s army)
