The first chapter of
"The Helfyre Legacy" is maybe a paragraph away from finished, but already it's coming together in a far more satisfying fashion than
TDD-505 had begun. There has, unavoidably, been a whole heap of diplomacy for Darkhawk to wade through, and there's still some to do, no matter how "dry" it might be, whilst Mane-of-Night has been having a whole lot more fun, and a whole lot less in the way of worries - it'll be quite a while before Darkhawk gets the chance to even
think about dancing under a waterfall in nothing but her boots...
I want to have several chapters of
"The Helfyre Legacy" done by the end of the week, and I'm confident I can achieve that, AND have it and MoN-106, the last story before the "convergence" with the Darkhawk story arc, completed fairly swiftly if some focus is applied,
without needless interruption. Bringing that stage of "Secret Adventures..." Season 1 to a suitable conclusion is a more achieveable goal that getting any further through TDD-505, so I think it's for the best to work on what works, and come back to Darkhawk at the right time.
Okay, back to work - or more correctly, let's watch the repeat of
Heroes, and maybe sketch out the rest of
"The Helfyre Legacy",
then back to work.
