Im confused. Is chapter 26 Real or just a dream? And Ch. 26.1 was years ago?
26.1 is just a past event, not relevant to the main story. This is a bonus chapter that is only available if you purchase the time 2. All other chapters are available for free on the website (at least for a while) and they gave a preview of the bonus chapter so people are entice to buy it.
I'm not sure what you mean for chapter 26, but it's not a dream. This is just the chapter leading to the beach event.
