Okay, I'm having fun.  :)  Let the contradiction continue!

Yes, a warning for "demonic possession" and "explicit violence."  That doesn't obviously mean sexual assault.  A "non-consensual" warning would mean that.

I think you're having a browser or ISP problem.  I clicked on all twenty links of the two prequels and got the requested page each time.  Never saw the "Not In Archive" page.  I use Opera normally but also tested the Wayback Machine link in my IE.  Both of my browsers called up all twenty parts of the stories.  I don't know why it's not working for you.

Here's an odd thing.  I clicked on the above link and it took me right to that page.  Not an archive, that exact address!  The original pages are still on www.chimerabloom.com, just the index that points to them has been disabled.

These links all work from my computer:

Ditto again for still being on www.chimerabloom.com.

Nope, you guessed wrong.  I just clicked on the links.  What browser do you use?

Hey, you learned something new.  That's always of the good.
