{{Spoiler}}Interludes are chapters narrated from the point of view of a different character to the main narrator, [[Blake Thorburn]] (excepting one arc, all normal chapters are from his point of view). This is not always the same character throughout the interlude. They are normally in third person as opposed to the usual first person, excepting diary entries. Interludes occur at the end of each arc, and [[Wildbow]] sometimes adds more in the middle as Donation bonuses, released whenever certain donation milestones are reached.

Interludes don't repeat a certain character unless they have gone through a major personality shift. Interludes are always important to the main storyline - intricacies to the setting are revealed, agendas are elucidated on and numerous other things are revealed. Interludes can feature characters who were considered as protagonists for Pact, and so they are very detailed and have interesting backstories rather than simply being plot dispensers.

Spoiler warning!
This article contains plot details about an upcoming episode.

Interludes are chapters narrated from the point of view of a character other than the primary protagonists. They generally occur at the end of each arc, and occasionally further interludes are included mid-arc (sometimes as rewards for reaching a donation milestone). With the exception of diary entries, interludes are normally written in third person perspective, even in Pact which is primarily written in first person perspective.

Wildbow has not been known to use the same character more than once as the subject of an interlude, unless they have gone through a major personality shift. Interludes are almost always important to the main storyline: intricacies to the setting are revealed, agendas are elucidated on and numerous other things are revealed. Interludes can feature characters whom Wildbow considered using as protagonists for the work, and as such they are very detailed and have interesting backstories rather than simply being plot dispensers.
