Update from the author

As at least some of you have noticed there has been a four moth hiatus in progress on this work. Through no fault of my own I have been indisposed for the passed four months, but now that I am back writing will resume immediately. If you would like the details feel free to send me a P.M.

Moving on, there are certain points about the narrative I would like to address.

I have recently learned that Hazbin Hotel will be premiering on Amazon Prime come January. While I have endeavored to make this tale as canonically accurate as possible, and will continue to try and adapt to the changing canon to the extent that I can, that will not be completely possible any longer. I already consider this an A.U., as all fan narratives are, but if I end up drifting too far from canon, please know that I tried.

I noticed a small error in "Alastor's day out", while I got the unsweetened part of his beverage right, I made the mistake of having his drink be tea instead of coffee. Again, this is a small error, but one I felt I must acknowledge.

Another small error I noticed is that I had Vagatha state in the previous chapter that Nifty was a good cook, while I have herd that she cooks very gross things. While to some extent this may still be true, gelatin was a popular desert item when she was alive, at least in the U.S., tastes like that are very subjective. This point is based on second hand information but if true I would like to address the error.

A larger mistake present in the previous chapter is a plot hole after Angel Dust is taken to his room. Before the scene with him and Vagatha the group had broken up, but immediately after Charlie, Nifty, and Husk are discussing what had happened with him. I like to think that in the intervening time the three eventually drifted back together and inevitably started talking about what happened. I either should have explained this or even better, not had the group disperse at all and re-work the post Angel dialogue. This is a larger plot hole that I want to apologize for.

I have recently learned that pentagram city is in fact the capital of hell. I said somewhere at the beginning of this story that I would have the capital be in a totally different city, but since it has been confirmed to be pentagram, I will be changing it back to abide by Vivziepop's canon. Since the capital has not come up at all to this point I feel this is a change I can safely make. Instead the royal palace will be located in the north side of pentagram city in it's own district.

Some people have wondered how this can be a Doom crossover when there has been a lack of violence and overall "Slaying". I cannot reveal anything specific, but I will say the upcoming chapters will have plenty of violence to sate your apatite until we get to the main event. In the words of Mr. Incredible, we get there, when we get there.

I cannot overstate my gratitude that people have liked my story enough to follow and even favorite not only this tale, but my account as well. There are many better tales than my humble offering, so for anyone to invest the time to read and see what will happen next is an enormous compliment.

If anyone feels the story is progressing too slowly, wants more action, character interactions, or anything else, feel free to comment or P.M. with your suggestions. If I don't know what I'm doing wrong, however am I to improve? I also want to communicate that I tried to do a lot of world building and set dressing in the earlier chapters, something that will almost certainly come back to bite me as Hazbin Hotel progresses, and that has resulted in the "slower" pace the story is at now. Because I was unable to post updates for so long I will release the next two chapters immediately once they are ready, and will endeavor to get the last three chapters of this block out before the new year. Once again, thank you all for reading, and stay tuned folks!
