MUSIC:
Deyo - Una Limosnita po el Amor de Dios

LENGTH: 6:11 minutes

------------------------
Side Note:
Why are some of my chapters so short?
How long do you want to wait for things to get released? I am publishing the chapters as they are in the book, and there are times when they need to be short. If I combined the chapters the flow wouldn't be as natural and you would have to wait longer for releases. The first two Books have relatively short chapters and in addition - they are also more of the incline up to the rest. Book 3 is more of a middle point, and significantly longer than the rest. Book 4 is the same and things are surmounting. The rest is full of action and mystery....stay tuned!
