Without going back and looking at the development, I'm about 90% sure that has something to do with Utgar's butchered character arc. He had a character arc, but it somehow didn't come across when I outlined the story, so I tried to shoehorn in some scenes to work on it, particularly in the section where he's going after Runa. I'm fairly certain that the reason there are two different scenes is that they build on each other in terms of Utgar's character... or at least they were supposed to.
As for the missed chapter feeling, I remember disliking that as well. There was a reason for it - something to do with not being able to show it because it would undermine the twist of Taelord's revelations I believe. I can't remember specifics beyond that though, unfortunately.
I'm up to proofreading the final few chapters for DoD. Just the Author's Note and Introduction to write after that... you should see it in around two days.
