An unexpected change of location but quite refreshing the tone of the story, are you planning a meeting with the top leadership of the union in the future?

The Intermissions did hint at that possibility. I can also now implement a couple of unused ideas I've created for a D&D campaign.

I've planned for a meeting, yes. The only issue is that I have far less time to write, and therefore, the update schedule shifted to twice a month. So the audience before her Majesty the Azerein has to wait for a while. If everything went as planned, they would've met already.

I guess the nomadic loroi clans would be really dangerous to humanity with their reproductive speed and immunity to disease, it's sad that there is no more information about them, the very idea of ​​a matriarchal horde is absolutely unusual to me.

Yet somehow, it's the Loroi who were driven into the outlying wastelands, and are forced to live a harsh nomadic life. The "elves" and humans, on the other hand, built a settled, agricultural society, and managed to uphold it despite the hostile climate or nomad raids. Maybe there's indeed something to this "God" they worship. Or the Loroi are simply too busy with infighting, just as on Deinar in the ancient past.

There are several Intermissions which are from their point of view. Specifically, the Intermissions P, U and V.

Hope 11 months doesn't count as necro'ing

Just finished reading through the story — it's definitely an interesting take on the setting! I definitely didn't see the "Welcome to the Sword & Sorcery" shift coming, but I'm looking forwards to seeing where you go with it!
