I've imperiously decided to grant myself a few day's extension on sections 2 and 3. I plan to record them and have them up this weekend. I won't make a habit of this because I don't want to have to start rejecting claims from me.
Thank you! You know who you are!

Section 2, runs for 27:00, and can be found at https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/navyeternal_02_bartimeus_128kb.mp3.
Someone greased the uploader skids - I never saw that progress bar move so fast before.

Yeah, sometimes it is really fast and sometimes soooo slow.

I'm not sure as to how and whether to best fix the clause @9:41elsieselwyn wrote: ↑March 6th, 2024, 1:25 pmOne PL Note: @9:41 repeat "to"BrianFullen wrote: ↑March 5th, 2024, 10:00 pm Section 2, runs for 27:00, and can be found at https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/navyeternal_02_bartimeus_128kb.mp3.

The clause at the start of that sentence in the text reads: "To the two oilskin-clad figures ,,," ...
Only I recorded the sentence as if it had read: "The two oilskin-clad figures ,,," .
I caught the omission in editing and had to decide whether to rerecord the sentence or find somewhere else that in my recording where I did say the word "to" so that I could copy/paste. But then I'm pretty lazy so I just copied the nearby word "two". So what you are really hearing is me saying "Two the two oilskin-clad figures" instead of me saying "To the two oilskin-clad figures.
You caught me fair and square - it's a fair cop.
And now that I am exposed as a cheating, lazybones... what to do now? If you really think it sounds that bad, I could go for one of the other options to supply the word "To" at the start of the sentence.
What would you do in my place? (not that I recommend that anyone should be here!).
Thank you! You know who you are!

https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/navyeternal_02_bartimeus_128kb.mp3 (27:00). I think what made it sound off was that the "two" I used for "to" was too close. I looked around for a "to" to copy but they didn't sound quite right. In the end I used "tu" from the word "tumalt" for the clause "To the two oilskin-clad figures" @9:41. I think it sounds better. Hope you do, too!
