There's also a good chance of getting mauled by wolves or bears, running into bandits, running into "bandits", or running into all of the above.

I'm not seeing your point.
Often the Wolves and Bears are the things they are hunting in the first place.
Your characters never had kids?

Well yes. But car accidents are a major cause of death in real life, and yet people still drive cars. Strangely, you don't hear about all the car journeys that didn't end in terrible accidents that claimed lives. Similarly, all the hunts that ended with some meat for the pot and a fun day spent chasing something through the woods and stabbing it/shooting it/setting it on fire go unremarked on. I would assume that the ones that end in tragic accidents or tragic accidents are the minority by quite a long way.

This incident is likely the cause of Montespan's obsession with Wardes. ...Wow that demon is going to have a bad time.

Its been there since sons of Abraham I believe. its a random event when it pops up you get several options on attempting to close the gates of hell from human sacrifice(one of your children), filling it in with rocks or a priest.
Sucessefully closing the gate ganers good opnion for a period of time unless you sacrificed one of your cildern in a attempt to close it in which case you get a negative opnion rate... Apparently people as far as away as India will dislike you for killing your offspring and there is a added bonus that your attempt to close it will sometimes fail on the first attempt...

How do you know its Montespan that took the potion?
It could be why Wardes is so melancholic at times, he knows the feelings are fake and that he should be greaving for his bethrothed, but they still feel real to him.

I don't hence why I said likely. Though the fallen-angel freaking out about how yandere Montespan is for Wardes is a good indicator imo.
Wardes is using the relationship to manipulate Montespan for the conspiracy.

Anyway, good to see this back. As I said on SB, I was wondering when this would update, and lo, here it is. Great read, though it will impact my backlog of stuff to follow now.
Louise having Magdalene as a Spymaster makes sense, and she can remain undercover in Amstreldamme while doing so. That it helps a new friend get out from under a boorish husband and give her meaning she needs in her life is a bonus. Smart plan to do him in too, take advantage of his vices and your advantages (like having giant blood gorged vampiric wolves under your friendly vampire sister's command and thrall).
Also, great to see more backstory of her, Montespan, and the cult here. Wonder what lady Henriette passed herself off as when she attended the meeting.
Going against Athe, by humiliating him, huh? I understand why it needs to be done and why it's a good plan, but I plain like the grandfatherly dark god of disbelief from what we've seen of him in this story so far, especially with Cattelya's discussion with him way back when. But I guess Louise has to do what she needs to do to get her revenge on Montespan, and to do that, she needs to expel the demon currently possessing her first. And since that demon's patron is Athe, she'll have to go through him to get to her.
Wonder how Louise will pull it off. Seems to involve Cathay and Emperor Lee quite a bit, and it's always good to see him involved, so I look forward to the next update, whenever that will be, and hope it won't be too long. I noticed that once you start working on an update in a plot arc for your stories, you tend to stick with it until it's done. Or at least, whenever your muse strikes you, which can be a fickle thing.
Speaking of updates, I posted something in response to your update notice on SB, and I guess I'll copy it over here, where you're more likely to see it:

That's awful of them to say.
If Louise is to be trusted, Eleanore is about 20.5% crueler than Magdalene. They should give Magdalene more credit.

I guess Louise have given up on pretending to be Good.
Good
Good
Uh uh uh.
If one Magdalene is 4/5ths of an Eleanore, one Eleanore is 5/4ths of a Magdalene.
This is quite possibly the first time louise has ever sounded like a proper overlord who's in charge of a situation. I dig it.

...The best part about this is how it almost describes exactly what Louise has been doing. Even if half of it was by accident.
W-Well done Louise. Well done.

Now, now, she did sound like a proper villain worthy of running SPECTRE and MAD by plotting while stroking a cat.
I'm sure they'll go away, if in the most technical sense anyways.
After all, they're not rumors if they're true.
Yes? But Magdalene is described as eighty-three centiElizabeths, so eighty-three percent as mean as

The omake. It compels me.
I just like how in charge she sounds. She's finally turning into an overlady I can respect. And That's Pretty Cool. Sorry about the caps. I'm Slightly Buzzed and This is for some Reason just Easier to Type. Don't know why Really.
I just realized that the rumors about Karin make Louise's complicated feelings towards Henriette even more weird.
Also everyone showing up to the cult meeting was fantastic and I wonder if Ellanore will get into that or some other event with the Overlady's party when she inevitably joins up with the crew.

I'm actually quite skeptical that Eleanor will actually join up at this point in the story. She has personal issues with most of Louise's inner circle, and her POV segments give no indication of her tending towards evil. She considers herself to be a Good person, even if her methods and personality lean to the Anti-Heroic side of the spectrum.
