Speaking of the former, the racism in this chapter is absolutely NOTHING compared to the sheer WTF how did nobody edit this out with extreme prejudice horror I just found.
Oh my goddess. I might have to wrap Murtagh up in his own banner and send him home.
I ultimately just stopped using chapter titles and now I just stick with numbers. Coming up with the right title for each chapter just got tiresome and I decided it wasn't necessary either.
See this is fine! There's all kinds of great stylistic ways to designate chapters. In a lot of romance novels for example, the chapter has a number but it's also named the name of the character you're seeing these events through. So Chapter 11 Alice; Chapter 10 Bob; Chapter 12 Lucy and so on. But if you're gonna pick words with meaning, you should be using that meaning to enhance the effect of your writing.
