Well, looks like it only took half a week for me to break that "new chapter every Friday" part... because you're getting a chapter today instead! Because I'm going to be away from Thursday to Sunday, and I really don't want to post an update when I'm only on my netbook (it's not a huge amount of work, but it would be so much more of a hassle on the netbook, trust me), I decided I'd just publish early instead.
So you can go read Chapter 016: A man of his word now!
