Hey!
1- Yep, it will all be covered in much more detail eventually.
2- I've got no idea what the final day count will be - I know how the story will play out, but it only gets split up into days when I come to actually writing it in detail for each update. This is a very wild guess, but we're probably something like a quarter of the way in right now, so there's plenty left to go!
And thanks! I'm happy to hear you're enjoying the story and characters so much!
