Changelog

This page is where I keep track of all the updates and changes we've made to the site. Whenever we write a new chapter, make a change to the layout, or anything else that I think is worth noting, I'll add it here. The last update will always be on the homepage for you to see as soom as you drop by, but this page will have a history of every change we've made to the site since it was created.


July 24, 2026 - 1.5.5
Another small update for the latest artpiece. Additionally, the sidebar now scrolls with everything else instead of being fixed to the screen. This may fix some issues with the changelog!

We've also done a little future-proofing for certain segments of the story...

June 20, 2026 - 1.5.4
Happy Pride Month!

No code changes for the site. We just wanted to take the time to remind everyone in the LGBTQ+ community who's visited our humble home that you will always have a place here.

April 17, 2026 - 1.5.3
Small update for my latest monthly art piece and both of our sanity.

There was no link to the Story of Salem mirror anywhere on the last update, which has since been remedied.

March 28, 2026 - 1.5.2
How do you like the new design? All of the weird refactoring stuff we did last update was in preparation for this. Besides the obvious visual changes, here's a list of things we've done to make your experience smoother.

  • The homepage now contains a "bulletin board" showing the latest update and a featured art piece from the Loremaster's portfolio.
  • Every page has a navigation bar at the top so you can get where you need to go quicker.
  • The chapters are on a dedicated page now; accessible from anywhere on the site.
  • We finally have the framework for a proper Lifelink Lore Wiki!
  • Some behind the scenes work has been done to make updating the site more streamlined.

The wiki section is still a work-in-progress, as we don't have articles for it yet. For now, you'll be led to a splash screen.

March 22, 2026 - 1.5.0
We did a LOT this update. Sorry it took so long.

  • We've got four(!!) new chapters for you: Two Book of Revelation b-sides (void and bright red eyes), as well as two new miscellaneous chapters (how i met an honest-to-gods angel and how i became indispensable).
  • Some special unlisted pages got a cool refresh-- see if you can find them all!
  • As you saw by the splash screen, we've refactored the site a bit. We renamed all of the chapter pages to have their chapter number. In the event that a chapter isn't numbered, those chapters use their dates instead*.
    *With the exception of the Story of Salem mirror (untouched) and the archive chapters (numbered in the order of their release date)

January 28, 2026 - 1.4.1
Happy New Year! Minor update today, fixing some grammar and a navigation error.

September 24, 2025 - 1.4.0 -
This would be a 2.0 update if we weren't saving that for something specific, it's that big. Here's just some of the changes we made.

  • Added 1 new side story: in this together.
  • Narrative adjustments to all existing chapters in Book of Revelation.
  • Added dates to all of the stories on the site! Now you can follow the timeline as its happening.
  • Rearranged the homepage again (sorry!) - gods willing, this should be the final layout revision.
  • Created the Loremaster's Archive tag for my older (now non-canon) stories written before 2025.
  • Added new visuals for the aformentioned archive, as well as the Book of Revelation b-sides - all made by MysticMismagius.
  • Several visual bugs have been fixed on mobile!
  • Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience.

July 18, 2025 - 1.3.2
Added a new piece to the portfolio.

July 1, 2025 - 1.3.1
Added new pieces to the portfolio and "renamed" the site.... Context

June 9, 2025 - 1.3.0
Happy pride, my little lorelings! Mimi and I added FOUR new stories this time - fallout of a noble, happy family, by your side, and the first b-side: alone with the acolyte! Hope you like cute old men.
I redesigned the index page again like a little maniac, opting for more of a single-file line like the mobile layout. Some other categories have been rearranged and renamed; all fics are still readable.

April 27, 2025 - 1.2.1
Added 3 new stories: chains, puppet strings, and the merry band! I also updated the headshots that you see next to story titles to properly show PoV order instead of... whatever non-system I was using previously.

March 28, 2025 - 1.2.0
Added two new stories, house of lords and thick as thieves, both written with Mystic's assistance. This turns the four stories so far written with her into a new series, Book of Revelation, with its own icon and background set to match! I've also added role icons to all of the PoV indicators. As Lifelink is a story based around constantly changing roles, these will come in handy when the main story gets going (finally) and it becomes important. As part of minor layout revisions, the Ship tag has been retired. Ship fics still have their unique icon and background, but are now listed with the misc. fics.

I've also added a portfolio to the site, which has all of my ToS2 fanart! Pretty nice to have all of my "Loremaster" content in one place.

January 15, 2025 - 1.1.0
Happy new year, my little lorelings! I bring you not just one, but two new stories with the help of MysticMismagius! As a result, I've ended up rearranging the homepage to have actual categories now. I've also added little "PoV indicators" to the stories - Under most circumstances you can figure out who the PoV character is but it's nice to have for any stories that happen to have multiple PoV switches.

December 27, 2024 - 1.0.4
Added a mirror to the old BMG lore and added a new about page.

October 2nd, 2024 - 1.0.3
Sure, Lore, we can just... completely redesign the index page... and change all the backgrounds...

September 11, 2024 - 1.0.2
Added a new story and rearranged the folder structure to internally have categories.

July 26, 2024 - 1.0.1
Fixing credit in footer, changing some icons. Day 1 patches are apparently for more than just video games.

July 26, 2024 - 1.0.0
Initial release, finally. Chapters have character headshots and a specific ability icon that ties them to certain "series" (coven, apoc, ships during the main story, etc.)
