Interlude

Template:Cleanup EDIT THIS
Interludes are chapters narrated from the point of view of a different character to the main narrator, Sylvester (excepting two arcs, 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. Interludes occur at the end of each arc, and Wildbow 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. They are important to the main storyline - The Rebels was first revealed in an interlude, and the interlude from The Dukes POV is incredibly relevant to the following chapters. Often, they are used to further the plot in ways the main characters don't realise, or simply to add colour to the Wormverse. Many interludes feature characters who were considered as protagonists for Twig, and so they are very detailed and have interesting backstories rather than simply being plot dispensers.

Trivia

An early interlude is from Brutus' point of view, and is written as though it were a transcript of his thoughts.
