If that means a massive drop of like a billion chapters at once, I wholeheartedly understand the delay. I also understand if they are working on remaking old chapters or writing a second novel. I look forward to any updates.

This seems like the normal course of things, it goes good for a while, then it slows down, and then finally collapses into an abandoned novel.

If the author would like some help, I don't mind taking some time to write with them. I wanna see more from this and if they wanna have someone writing with them, I am all for helping overcome writer's block.

Everything is amazing, the writing is realistic and allows a reader to follow the MC's train of thought. The characters also react in mannerisms that are also realistic, hunting prey, safe areas vs not ready to go there, holding grudges for fitting acts, a realistic form of PTSD, the MC isn't full of main character syndrome, bartering in shops. The stability of updates is absolutely consistent, there is almost always 1, sometimes 2, chapters a day, the releases are enough that I can always come back at least once a day to read more about my favorite owls. The story development is smooth and flows from each area to the next in a way that helps understand the transitions from 1 arc to the next, an example being from hatchling to the ruins. (Keeping vague so as to avoid spoilers.) Character design is peak quality in that the history constantly shapes how the characters react, and when parts are shared, with others, the reactions from others are reasonable and make even some background characters feel more 3 dimensional. As for world background, it's slowly expanding in much the same way our main owl discovers new things, every new discovery makes me happier as I see her explore more and see more things. Overall 11/10 Gimmie more owl.

I love what I have read, but I wish the updates were consistent or had a decent update schedule, and I mean like some other novels I have been reading that, while they don't update often, they release a bunch of chapters all at once.

Taking an enchantment from my D&D table, parasitic armor, armor absorbs a portion of damage and returns it as damage to the attacker, kinda like a mirror, doesn't return damage on ranged things, but any melee damage becomes a hassle.
