Chapters 25 through 32 are in the queue and should be posted in the morning. Starting in Part Four, I hope to step up the action. Parts one through three were to introduce the protagonist and get her started on her path through the Realms.

Enjoy!

I would like to thank everyone who has been reading and enjoying The Realms, so far. I do not have a definitive schedule for adding to it, but I am currently working on Part 3 and it is going to be picking up the pace a little.

I think I've found a story type that I an truly enjoy writing. Often, I have gotten bogged down when writing stories because I come to realize that my characters end up so very overpowered. Well, in Wuxia there is no such thing, provided you do the cultivation and such necessary to improve and grow. That said, I am considering how to modify my other stories that have stagnated and turn them into Wuxia stories as well. Even how I might merge them into The Realms.

Again, thank you for reading and voting. It really makes my day!

I tend to go through my stories after I post them to see if things went as planned. Sadly, that is not the case today. Now I get to go back and fix the corrections I made. It's all formatting so not a big deal. Just really not how I wanted it to look.

Sorry for all the modifications in such a short time. I can be a bit of a nut about things like how things come out visually.

One thing I find when writing is that my earlier chapters inevitably must be updated and corrected to match with the latest chapters I am working on. This being the case, all five chapters in part 1 are being replaced. Chapter 5 has already been updated. Now, chapters 1 through 4 are in the queue.

The changes are mostly minor. Some of the most notable ones are in her "Stat Page." It is formatted a little differently, and "Master" is now "Expert" to allow for more growth.

In the end, most changes are cosmetic.

Part two is well underway and may require being split into two parts as it is already much longer than part 1. If I break it into two pieces, which I am leaning towards, Part 2 will be focused on her return home.

Something happened when I reposted a few minor fixes. I've made more corrections and have submitted them as individual files so that they are posted in the proper order and not as a single chapter eight times.

I am already working on part 2.
