A/N - Oh boy, it’s been a while, hasn’t it? 3 months, I believe. Trust me, I had no intention of letting it go this long between chapters but life has gotten in my way. Work got quite hectic and became a bit of a slog. It actually pushed me to quit and find work I can handle better. I’m just not built for being outside all day in 85-95 degree heat with 50-70% humidity. I thought I would be but nope.
So that’s what has kept me busy for quite a while. Recently though, I found out that two people on Tiktok, without my knowledge, did narrations of my story. One only did 8 minutes of the first chapter but that video got 250k views. The second guy did the entire story so far and while not getting as many views and with the narration and such not being the highest possible quality, tens of thousands were still still watching each video. I am thankful some people saw my story worth narrating.
So it kinda reminded me a lot of people enjoy my story and that it had been a couple months since the last chapter and since I’m not employed at that moment, I had the time to get a new chapter out. Hoping to not have months come between chapters again since I am myself interested in seeing where future me takes the story.
I hope the first look at the war was as interesting as I hoped it would be. A few references (let me know if you get some of them, admittedly some are more direct rips cause I'm unimaginative lol), some foreshadowing, and what is probably an unintended cliffhanger. I hate how cliffhanger-y my endings tend to be but I just struggle with ending chapters in such a way to say there’s more to come from a character without that sense of cliff hanging-ness. So I try but I apologize in advance if it’s gotten old. I also hope some parts aren’t coming off as too cliche but as I’ve always said, things that are cliche are cliche because they’re often effective. Take John Wick for example. A box standard “Badass comes out of retirement due to bad thing happening to them” story and yet people love it because honestly, seeing people being badass is just fun. Still, I try and avoid them (fun fact, I almost included a Freebird fight scene in a bar in an earlier chapter before deciding to take the story more seriously) but sometimes I gotta run with them.
Anyway, this is pretty long since it’s been a while so I think I’ll end it here. Been playing Cities Skylines for a bit and really looking to get back to OilLand and keep that black gold flowing. Till next time.
