Fic: A Plague of Serpents Chapter Four

I really should have been finishing off ‘Debt of Blood’ this week, or the next ‘Tabula Avatar’ chapter – I’ve had requests for both – but that’s not where the inspiration led me. After a brief diversion into a New Testament/Conan crossover called ‘The Good Cimmerian’ (not yet ready for publication) I returned to a story I haven’t touched since May and which has, perhaps, the smallest readership of any of my WIPs (although I like it).

‘A Plague of Serpents’, the world’s first ‘Neverwinter Nights 2: Storm of Zehir’ fanfic. Set in the ‘Tabula Avatar’ universe rather than the official ‘Forgotten Realms’ game world, and incorporating the changes that Buffy and Co. have made to Faerûn, but otherwise not a crossover (Buffy and Dawn will make a cameo appearance later). Set five years on from ‘Tabula Avatar’, although a long way from where that story takes place, and may contain some slight spoilers. When I started this story I estimated that it would come out at 30,000 words. I’m now at just over 28,000 and not at the half-way point yet. My revised length estimate is 75,000 words. This chapter is 9,300 words, rating R. Previous chapters can be found HERE.
