And so we reached the end of episode one

I wanted to wait until this point to drop a little info on this project, the reason I didn't do this sooner is because I wanted to have something of substance to show before expositing my own personal story all over you guys,
But since we are here already and chapt 5 is up allow me chat you up for a bit.

I originally began journey to Ataraxia years ago when I first joined the fandom, before my first fursona even had a face and before I was even the me I am today.
Back then all of my writing was in Portuguese as I didn't feel confident enough to write in English, and being honest, I was a rather ‘eh’ writer... Nowadays i've improved substantially in terms of plot, design and structure so I decided to reboot this story into something i could be more proud off.
However I am doing this with a certain degree of second intentions... I want to one day become a full time writer and this is my first step, I decided to give this a fair shot now because i realized i'm nearing my thirties and if I don't begin working for my dream it won't just drop out of the sky and fulfill itself.
I've been writing every day since the end of January, not missing a single day and making sure i work on things ahead of time, I also got my husband involved as he helps me with some editing and recently I contacted an artist that I intend to commission for art on the characters...
This is all to say this is not a side project I intend to drop in like two weeks... I will work my absolute HARDEST to ensure I get a chapter out every week and unless I’m dying of some disease you can be damn sure I will do it! Even if I get no support, I will pay for art out of my own pocket and one day this will become a thing I can write my name one... You bet!

I have been very productive and way happier since this project started, and I want this to continue, I hope to one day live off this... But not just that... I want to one day build a world people look at and recognize, characters people know and love, I want Journey to Ataraxia to BE A REAL THING that doesn't appear in just my dreams but the dreams of as many people as I can reach with it.
So in turn, i am asking for you people to help support it, and help support ME, these first five chapters will help showcase the kind of story and world I’m trying to build, and I hope it's enough to get you guys interested in donating for my cause and to help turn this kobold into a writer he can be proud off.

I know this impassionate speech might seem corny, but I do have a lot of passion for this world, and even more so these characters. I want to see this story succeed.
So I'll leave this here. https://www.patreon.com/djourner and ask that if you liked my story so far... please donate.
I know I’m biased as i love these boys with all my hearth, but believe me, it only gets better from here. ^^

As for this chapter
Though you can get a few pinches of it before, this is the one chapter I think translates best the tone I’m really going for,
This here is the meat of what I want my story to be... There is action, there is fighting and a lot of world and exploration, but this moment is what I think captures the essence of journey to ataraxia, bittersweet is the word I’d use to describe it, filled with those sour moments but also wholesome in its own way.
If you like this chapter... This is what you're going to see in almost every episode... Some will be happier, some will be sour, but this is the true essence of my story.
