This is a model merge of https://huggingface.co/NousResearch/Nous-Hermes-Llama2-13b + https://huggingface.co/Blackroot/Llama-2-13B-Storywriter-LORA

Thanks to NousResearch and Meta for the base models.

A brief warning, no alignment or attempts of any kind were made to reign in, censor, or otherwise manipulate the outputs of this model. It is a raw model and may produce outputs that are unexpected or otherwise distateful. You are the master of your own destiny, and the master of this model, use with caution.

Nous-Hermes is the base model, so the recommendation is to use their recommended alpaca instruct format for prompts:

```
Prompt Format

The model follows the Alpaca prompt format:

### Instruction:
<prompt>

### Response:
<leave a newline blank for model to respond>
```

or

```
### Instruction:
<prompt>

### Input:
<additional context>

### Response:
<leave a newline blank for model to respond>
```
