Tomorrow on "The Rat and the Dragon," Cylthan is in trouble. Entirely at Roan's mercy, she will learn the meaning of fear... and we will learn that Roan is a dick because the Council is led by devils.
After this chapter, it will be a rocky uphill for these two, but it will go uphill from now on. They will have moments of weakness and selfishness and fits of rage, but they'll figure it out, and hopefully before Maleic finds out where she is... oh, uhhhh, oops...
There may be some discrepancies in the timeline from earlier, but I'll deal with it later. Also remember that it takes news forever to move around in this world when you live next door to bumfuck and nowhere. It'll all work out.
If you didn't see it last time- or you were waiting- definitely check out the song "The Devil You Know" by Blues Seraceno. It's the vibe for this chapter. I had that and "No Enemies" by Sebastian Ingrosso and Steve Angello on loop almost the whole chapter.
Hope you guys enjoy it!
