>Announcements
Hi everybody! I'm back. At the end of last thread, I announced some burgeoning wrist issues that could impact my writing schedule. I regret to say that I'm still dealing with these issues, which are relatively mild but may take a few more months to fully heal. However, my physical therapist has given me the go-ahead to run my quest anyways, provided that I write for relatively limited periods and take breaks if I begin to get sore. Which brings us to the side-thread.
>A note on structure
If it wasn't obvious, CODICIL is not a regular Redux thread: this is a side thread that will focus on the POVs of various minor or underexplored characters. Updates are likely to be shorter than typical Redux updates (1-2 posts) and to feature less complex choices. You are welcome to participate even if you aren't fully caught up on the main quest, though to maximize comprehension you may want to have read up through Thread 33.
>A note on schedule
Even though they're shorter, updates will be once a day as normal to preserve my wrists. (If they're exceptionally short, I may bump that to two.) If health allows, I hope to return to Thread 36 and my regular style and schedule by the end of November or beginning of December, after this thread's end and my usual break.
>A note on inspiration
The structure of this thread was directly inspired by BananasQM's Supreme Space Monke Ruler Quest's "Dreams" sidethread---it won't be 1:1, but I probably wouldn't be writing this thread like this if I didn't read that one, so thank you Bananas.
>A note on canonicity
As was established way back in Thread 14, alternate timelines are real in the Drowned setting. You may assume all events depicted in this thread take place in the "main timeline" of the quest, except if/when the main quest ever contradicts or obviates anything depicted. If that's the case, the main quest's version of events should be considered accurate, and this side-thread's contradicted version should be considered to take place in an alternate timeline.
>A note on art
I've been drawing a little bit, but I really shouldn't be. Don't expect much custom art this thread. Drawing traditionally doesn't seem to bother my wrists as much, so you might see a little of that.
That's all I have. As always, please direct any comments, questions, or concerns my way, and let's have a good time together!
