08 They Say I Am His Bastard
Aug 10, 2025
New chapter is live!
Quick note before you dive in: several readers said the old-school history terms, British spellings, and those stealthy Buryat rhymes sent them on emergency Google runs. Got it!
The next Patreon lore post will already unpack goodies like labrys and lorica (with sketches), but I’m wondering if we should go bigger and make a living glossary.
Which format would help most?
1. A pinned Google Doc you can keep open.
2. Tooltip cards tacked onto the end of each episode.
3. Something else—tell us!
Drop your vote or ideas in the comments. Your feedback keeps the story smooth and the mystery fun. Thanks for reading and for flagging the words you want decoded!

I would like terms explained underneath the episode or even inside.
Side note, whenever I see there is an update I think that it's a series I subbed to but didn't read yet. Then I see that I've read it and start rereading. Still have trouble figuring out what's going on. Might be just a me thing, but figured it might be useful to let you know.
