I gotta read this a few more times, because it is fantastic! Loved the action! Loved the danger! And loved how the whole crew worked together. So much fun to read!!! And Pedro at the very end...? Chef's kiss 💋

Thanks! It was a lot of fun to write. Getting to show the characters working together against a single problem.

Thank you! ❤️I felt like this one should really move, given what is happening.

A rip-roaring pirate adventure with just a bit of the power of the Etherwave Arcana thrown in just for good measure!

Oh boy, that's an understatement! I hope he gets a little break, but I don't want the action to stop. Good thing he's so tough.

LOL, and thank you for making that clear. I worry enough over Pedro. Glad he isn't headed for that kind of pain. He has enough already.

*bows* You're welcome! 😁And, ok, Pedro is going to get some time away from being shot at and missed, stabbed and hit, for a little bit. I mean, there's only so much he can take! But hey, that might mean he has a cunning plan!

Promising! He is rather clever, so it makes sense. I can’t wait!

It'll be in 1 week! Friday like always. Also... not too many more chapters before this story comes to a close, too! Only a handful left!

I could sense we're getting the end. Sigh. But I hope there will be another adventure for Pedro et al. :)

Excellent summer-blockbuster-quality action all around!

I really enjoyed the details of opening the gate. It does make the Etherwave Arcanum seem like a living thing, almost a Lovecraftian living thing. I expect Navigators feel the need to wash their hands after that, and they definitely should before meal time.

Well, the Arcane Gate might really appreciate clean hands before any of that touchy feely!! 😂😁
