Chapter 71 (Patreon)

A little insight into my writing process. I'm a writer that needs everything that will happen in a chapter planned out in advance. This means a lot of planning. For perspective, the plan for Chapters 72 and 73 and possibly 74 depending on how long they are is 3900 words long. That's just the plot beats. World building, maths, and everything else isn't counted in that.

This means the current plan is to write and release chapters 72 and 73 this month and I am very excited for where the story is going. Chapter 74 will likely be released in August when I will hopefully have the next couple chapters fully planned out by that time as well.

Anyway, here's the chapter. Give me your thoughts on the pacing. Have I spent too little time on describing the location and the characters reactions?
