Sorry for the delay responding; I've been swamped with stuff.
1) Do you mean you want more customization for those rooms? Nothing was particularly planned for them, aside from new party members in the lower left.
2) You'll have to wait a little bit on Ivastan.
3) Investments question was already answered.
4) Nobody is from any other world, but Estaven is a parody of those types of characters in some ways.
5) There are no secret underwater cities, but the oceanic hints are there for a reason.
6) Haha, I'm looking forward to writing Sarai and Wendis meeting again.
7) There are zero broom enemies.
8) Most characters have pieces of me, but I wouldn't say I particularly identify with any of them.
Thanks for the kind words! I'll reply in order:

Mostly just if there was going to be any future investments to upgrade these areas.
I'm disappointed there are no broom enemies.
And thank you for the reply
Oh no, you guys discovered the secret final plot twist! The "Other" category in the harem menu has been "Brooms" all along.
I knew it good job guys we broke the code. We are just too good, or really just like brooms too much
Saw the new post on the blog and of you want to make the rest of chapter 4 better, you need to add more broom related content. It would be good to add more broom related content to your other works as well and have everyone understand THE POWER OF THE BROOM!
On a serious note, with the potential of art coming in, will we be able to re-view art from earlier in the game? As I've already did another playthrough last month I don't want to have to do another one so soon after starting my current one.

I am going to be slightly cross if broom-based art does not replace the original main splash.
New TLS update for patrons! After spending a while rewriting the end of the chapter to my satisfaction, I'm prepared enough to lay the foundation for the big final conflict. This update also includes a decent amount of side content that I worked on while I was spinning my wheels on the core plot stuff. For example...
That 5,000,000 ProN investment? It leads to an optional dungeon, and I think it's one of the nastier ones I've designed. I put a lot of work into this to try to require more strategies than normal.
There's also a new dungeon to help gather materials, including a new mechanic I hope will be fun. But don't think this update is all secondary concerns...
You'll revisit Stenai because it's time to make a major decision about the upcoming war. After impending for a while, it's happening starting in the next update.
I don't want to repeat the Third Arclentian War, so I've tried to design a major event that is satisfying while having a different flavor. Meanwhile, I hope everyone enjoys the update!

@Sierra Lee Completely off-topic question, kinda personal so please don't feel any need to answer if you don't want to. Purely out of curiosity, does your current partner (or last one) happen to know the dirty details about how you make a living these days? If/when you told them, what was their reaction?
It's a thought that's been bouncing around in my head for a while. What do the game authors, writers, artists, etc. tell their family and friends? "I work in game design. No, you can't see what I'm working on and never will." People get curious and start prying, and might eventually find out in a less-than-satisfactory manner. Sierra seems to be one of the more successful ones, with multiple WIP games, several releases, and now books, so I figured I'd ask here first.

You probably should have just made a new thread to ask, instead of singling Sierra out. Not everyone has the same experiences.

I didn't emphasize it, but there actually is an autosave: you'll see it at the bottom of the save list.
New TLS update for patrons! Though I didn't want to repeat myself with war events, this update doesn't skimp on the split party tactics and strategic decisions you'd expect:
But beyond that, this event will resolve a large number of plots that I've been building up throughout this chapter, possibly not in the way you're expecting:
You'll also see some people who haven't shown up since the second chapter of the game:
And I'll leave Yarra to close out with a line that makes perfect sense in context:
I hope everyone enjoys the update!

i have always wondered why is it that if i am traveling with the whole group everyone dies if the four in the front line get beaten, cant the ones in the reserve just go and switch places when that happen?. also why cant we switch party members during a fight?
The former is one of those Acceptable Breaks From Reality (specifically see Arbitrary Headcount Limit) you just have to deal with in RPGs. If that could happen, every battle encounter would have to be balanced around the fact that you have to lose your ENTIRE party to have any possibility of failure, so enemies would have to be so much stronger that losing characters would have to become a normal thing (or else just write off the combat as a speedbump), which I personally would find annoying. As for the latter, that's a matter of the game's systems- I think Final Fantasy X was the first game to allow this (or at least the first really notable one) and it was considered a major innovative feature of the combat system. I don't even know if RPGmaker allows it.
in the harem game you can switch party members during combat so at least the rph maker engine allows that, you still get a game over screen if the front line dies so not if that can be changed
