Early in the morning, the group had already split off with Lilly. As she led her troops off to the Torivald manor and adjacent city, Valentina and Dahlia's group had marched through some fields until they stumbled across the hidden base they were looking for. The base was located in the middle of a massive field of tall grass with nearly all of it underground, and it had only taken three hours of marching to arrive. All this to say, there was now a long period of down time before the attack began.
So, it ended up being a late released chapter after all, and a relatively short one as well, woopsie.
For the next while we are going to be focussing on the battle and things will likely remain action heavy for a while. I know I can have a bit of a slow pace to my writing, but I'll do my best to mix things up and keep things entertaining so that they stay fun and interesting.
And, as always, I hope you're having a wonderful day~
