Chapter 3 is now the length of both 1 and 2 combined. Also, the Emporer is here, Iduran is dead, all of Aritan and its people have suddenly disappeared/collapsed/exploded, and maybe more explanation for that can be made up. The Emporer is trying to destroy the whole of what remains of Romme, and whether he succeeds or fails, this seems a good time to stop for a few days and have a summary so that we can make sure not too much has been missed and that we can remember anything that we were doing or quests we were given (how long does it take to go to the cave of a dragon, Dude Man? And you Zeros'? Weren't you supposed to ask this dragon stuff?) Tying up a few loose ends might be a good thing, and pausing for a while might help.
I suggest maybe Chapter 3 should be ended after the big things happening at the moment end.
Does anyone else have any ideas or comments, or disagree with me?
