Knowledge #AtoZchallenge 2026 #Writing #Plotting #StoryBeats

My theme for the 2026 A to Z Challenge is plotting Book Three in my Existence series — Cave of Existence.

The Debate over what to do and if they should do it rages on in the next part. The multiple layers of problems (that they're aware of) are laid out. 

Heath and Xavier debate if searching for the ring giver is the best use of their time. There's the pregnancy issue. And weddings to plan. Maybe The Eyes in the Shadows have been thwarted, and they can let their guard down. It might be time to focus on what they know. 

Heath quips about days long ago when he created advanced mathematics, "not so one could simply apply what they know, but so they'd yearn for more knowledge, to answer questions that seem to have no solution." 

Wend tries to talk to Jez about how she's feeling. But Jez doesn't want to discuss pregnancy and babies. She's barely winning to be "trapped" in a committed relationship. Honestly, the two barely have common ground. 

Are you friends with anyone you barely have anything in common with, and how do you make it work?
