It's pretty late even though I finished it in advance, too much of Lightning Returns, but Chapter 241 is present. Things wrap up with the flashback as promised and end into the final stretch of things. The end is just a setup for the next chapter. But it gets the tension rising for sure.

I did have to be careful with the flashback. I wanted to do more than I could because I had to keep the events to things only Ayumi knew about. The things that do fall outside of her being present are based on things she learned after the fact. But the shadows of things moving which I teased in a previous chapter I wanted to bring up again, but it was out of her knowledge. I'll get to those pieces in time.

But I did get to do a little more with the King and her and Demosthenes. Their first meeting was something I had a lot of fun with. It seemed like the perfect way to work with Demosthenes and his stiff personality. He's very easy to play with at that point. The changes that he underwent over the years makes how he is now and where he was much most noticeable.

Enjoy!
