As you unravel this week's scroll, a bellowed shout resounds within your mind:

LISTEN TO MY RUMINATIONS!

Both free and paid members of the Exalted Text patreon can read the status update in it's entirety! 

However, I would like to highlight my new polling series for patrons, called Choose-your-own-Romance.  As you all know, I'm currently working on Chapter 2.5 which focuses on the gladiator/enslaved arc. However, Chapter 3 will be focused on the Academy route and will introduce a new romantic interest for our protagonist.

This romantic interest will be set apart from the others based on this... We will be creating them together through your choices throughout a series of polls. Everyone should know how much I value PLAYER CHOICE by now, especially when it comes to my patrons. The first poll had a rather decisive outcome... The romantic interest at the Academy will be a highborn student from a faltering family. While still bearing their highborn status and noble bloodline, her family has fallen. And perhaps we'll find out how, together. The second poll will open tonight. Join us and help flesh out the next love interest in Orphan through your choices!

This, my friends, is only the beginning. 🔥

And trust me, the pleasure is mine. Truth Serum, out.
