In Chapter 25, Miles' first line includes two words (said Hendon) which seem like narration, so I recorded it.

Hey, if I'm out of line here, I'm sorry, but it seems to me that the following three Hendon lines make more sense if spoken the Prince:
MILES HENDON: “Ah, brave good heart,”
NARRATOR: he said to himself,
MILES HENDON: “this loyal deed shall never perish out of my memory. I will not forget it—and
neither shall they!”
NARRATOR: he added, with passion. Whilst he mused, his appreciation of Hendon’s magnanimous
conduct grew to greater and still greater dimensions in his mind, and so also did his gratefulness for it.
Presently he said to himself,
MILES HENDON: “Who saves his prince from wounds and possible death—and this he did for me—
performs high service; but it is little—it is nothing—oh, less than nothing!—when ’tis weighed against
the act of him who saves his prince from shame!”

Argh! You are quite correct. Definitely the Prince, now that I read them again (I recall struggling to figure it out originally, but it seems obvious now). I have sent a PM to our Prince - hopefully we can get those added.deLorinel wrote: ↑April 20th, 2023, 1:43 am Ready for PL:

And please do report any issues you see - it's never out of line.
Thank you for section 28, it is queued for PL.

I'm currently editing my file for Chapter 31, and have run into a question.
The Narrator part seems to include lines meant for the Chronicler. If you want me to include them, I will - but in that case, would you want me altering the voice?
The lines in question:
(NARRATOR:) ...
line, as it took its stately way through the packed multitudes of citizens. The chronicler says, ‘The
King, as he entered the city, was received by the people with prayers, welcomings, cries, and tender
words, and all signs which argue an earnest love of subjects toward their sovereign; and the King, by
holding up his glad
countenance to such as stood afar off, and most tender language to those that stood nigh his Grace,
showed himself no less thankful to receive the people’s goodwill than they to offer it. To all that
wished him well, he gave thanks. To such as bade
CROWD1: “God save his Grace,”
NARRATOR: he said in return,
TOM: “God save you all!”
NARRATOR: and added that he thanked them with all his heart.
NARRATOR: Wonderfully transported were the people with the loving answers and gestures of their
King.’
