I knew Bouncer would be a good judge of character. I think Ases will support Essell and Garjah, but how will he react to our heroes basically being fugitive revolutionaries?

The original pilgrims probably didn't intend to do evil either, the genocide of Native Americans happened anyway. Will the Captain find the planet? If he does, can be be convinced to leave them alone? Eagerly awaiting the next chapter.

No, but Talon and Eon are both quite capable of being vicious! I’m still hoping Tyren can pull some behind the scenes strings. Does he know where Talon’s sister is? Does the queen?
-
My favorite chapter so far! And not just because of the steamy ending. Kalian is finally taking charge of his life and his power.
-
Finally! This is the Kalian I've been waiting for!

I also had a passing thought in an earlier chapter that the postcards might be fake, but the postcards came from Sheila. Our sweet Sheila couldn't be our murderer.

And now we are back to childish, spoiled Kalian. This kid is a roller coaster.
-
Oooooooooh! A clue! Can't wait for the next chapter!

So kind, I was thinking of Loren's mom.

I'm happy for Terry, Dan seems much more suited for him than Cliff. Dan appears to have had similar issues with his ex. As for the body, I thought the most important information from this chapter was the realization that all the listed people are still alive. He needs to discover the identity of a person they all knew who is not alive.

I loved everything about this chapter! A road trip can be a tight bonding experience, it sounds like a way to learn more about each other with built-in distractions.

I think Kalian learned more in this chapter than all the previous ones put together. I like Tyren, I think he'll be an ally.
-
I enjoyed this chapter, especially the ending! I'm gaining some respect for Kalian, he sees the need for a plan to deal with Lex. I hope the training will go as well as I'm anticipating. The king came off as a bit of a buffoon. Buffoons can still be dangerous.
-
Well the lordling is finally showing a glimmer of maturation and intelligence, just as he is realizing he is in over his head. It appears that Lex is more than just a dumb, abusive jerk. He is a dumb, abusive, power-hungry jerk with connections. Let's hope Kalian gets his head out of his ass quickly enough to save himself.
-
I agree 100% with @drsawzall, Kalian is a pathetic spoiled brat. He's lucky Talon is interested in him.
-
I vote for the sister too. Still lacking respect for Kalian.
-
I'm trying really hard to stick with this, but I have such a difficult time feeling any sympathy for a person that would choose a monster like Lex, when he doesn't have to! This is not an abused spouse who has few options! What an idiot! If he really does marry Lex, I hope he gets exactly what we know will happen. He has a choice.
-
I couldn't agree more. I stopped reading this the first time around because I was fed up with Kalian's cowardice. He now has power and allowing someone he doesn't like in the first place control him was not enjoyable to read. I'm currently reading I hate this town and am getting over myself and learning to appreciate people who do not have my "take no crap" personality. I thought it was time to give Kalian another chance.

We are getting closer and closer to the big day! Will Mithras let the Earth vessel find the planet? If so, will they make contact before or after the lottery? What will happen with Evan and Thad? What memory is Mithras blocking from Ned? These and other questions answered in our next episode of La Tombola! 😁 This really does resemble the old serial shorts shown before movies -- Buck Rogers, et al. Great job! One actual question though, I thought you stated that as the original spaceships were approaching the planet 500 years after leaving, earth was coming out of a nuclear winter. That's why I assumed the new ship was derived from the Mayflower or Speedwell. What gives?

My initial thoughts are that Alec is living in an expensive house of cards. Looks good on the outside, but one gust of wind and it's laying in a pile. It doesn't sound like he ever told off his parents. He just left and cut off contact. Maybe he wasn't capable of that type of confrontation at the time. Maybe he still isn't. I still have no sympathy for his mother, illness does not transform a bad person into a good person. Because Alec is so different from me, I have to keep reminding myself that he wouldn't react the way I would. That you have me invested in a character I normally wouldn't identify with, says a great deal about your writing.

I had to work late and opened my tablet to 100 new notifications! WTF?! I assumed @Carlos Hazday must have dropped a surprise chapter, you know he's such a comment hog! But no, then I read the chapter and figured it out. @Mrsgnomie just wrote one of the best, most heartbreaking chapters I've ever read! I'm desperate to find out what happened to Lars. Is he as screwed up as the parents? Does he have survivor's guilt? A somewhat similar case (not twins) was on the news in Cincinnati a couple weeks ago. One kid singled out for punishment and abuse, the others treated well. The boy has permanent damage to his feet and legs due to standing in the corner for days at a time. The parents are in jail awaiting trial.

I think that is a given. Once it was established that there was a real connection between the weather (floods, droughts, temperatures) and the sacrifices to Mithras, I figured this planet was alive and sentient.

Since Thad had a “special” dream, I’m pretty sure he will be either chosen as the sacrifice, with Evan holding the knife, or the opposite. I agree that Ned will probably be reunited with Peter soon. I’m not forgetting the looming contact with the spacecraft. It seems the storylines are converging.

Finally! I’m so happy Dan wasn’t as closed minded as we thought (or closed lipped)! I wonder if old George was being truthful or hiding something?
