Of the Coming of Men into the West

The Graphics Post has been updated again! New banner by oloriel.

Welcome this fortnight's chapter discussion!

Important: This is not a spoiler-free zone. It is hard to discuss any chapter in depth without referring to things that happen in later chapters. Proceed at your own risk! Furthermore, it’s perfectly fine to jump in, even if you haven’t participated in previous discussions. We don’t bite!

Also, you are welcome to comment on old chapter discussions. Although the re-read is moving on, discussions are never closed!
