Not really too much to say. So here, having a Daybreak chapter update.

After an unexpected two months' delay, Daybreak v3ch2 is out at last. This chapter was an utter pain to write, so much that I caught writer's block during the middle of it. But hopefully you'll enjoy the results.

I also used this chapter to bring out the big hammer against people's misinterpretations. Many readers (especially back in volume 1) believed that Daybreak on Hyperion is a Medieval Fantasy due to the reliance on cold steel. Well, it isn't. Hyperion is actually in a far more interesting time period: Welcome to the Age of Imperialism. If you haven't picked it up already (by the Absolute Monarchy, the rise of Nationalism, the global exploration/colonization, etc.), the newest discussed technology should make this obvious.

Lastly, I also snuck in Weichsel's National Profile last week -- for those interested. Reference notes for the initial chapters have also been posted, including information for that spam of religious references in the prologue chapter.

Welcome to Daybreak volume 3~

The prologue is meant to hint at yet another grand concept of the Daybreak setting design. Let's see if your religious wit is up to par. I'm sure the more conservative minded who are still here (after the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster? really?) will be screaming blasphemy.

Since prologue isn't very character focused, I figured I'd wait until chapter 1 is available. Here~

Chapter 2 might take longer. Politics can be hard =x

Enjoy~

Hello, Aorii here for a brief update~

No, Daybreak is still not ready to move onto vol.3 yet. I've been consolidating ideas, but for the most part my last two months have been taken up by real-life issues (mostly: switching job, family visits, etc.). Sadly, that means not much time for looking up artists either...

Nevertheless, my goal is to start vol.3 proper by early June, if for nothing else than to keep Daybreak alive in regards to Baka-Tsuki's project status page ^^'

That being said, I am posting a short update -- something I started months ago and completed purely for fun. It doesn't follow a plot thread or anything. But if you're like me and appeciates random slice-of-life banter that may or may not reflect on some character details, enjoy~!
