Hello, dear readers!

Yes, it is what it is. A hiatus notice. I am sorry that this is what you will see instead of the next chapter.

Long story short: I got hospitalized after the holidays. Yep, I got Covid, and I was one of those unlucky enough to get really fucking sick (continued into bronchitis, it became a whole fucking thing), but lucky enough to get better (I guess I can thank the fact that I was vaccinated that it did not become worse). My immunity has always been fucked up. I got a whole new perspective about freaking priorities.

Sorry about unloading like this but in front of family and friends, I have had to be strong and optimistic, so my mom can feel at least a bit better and not burst into tears, but I really, really have wanted to complain about this. God, it's was the worst thing. I only got discharged Monday, and it still feels kind of unreal, like it's going to come back somehow. And I am not going to talk about medical fees. Just... no.

Either way, that's the reason why I haven't been writing until now. But I will continue not writing until May. As a result of my 'absence' my studies have been pushed back by weeks. I had to reschedule my exam in the end, but I am still playing catch-up.

I am sorry about this. I will be pausing payments. God knows I haven't been keeping my promises. My policy about refunds still continues: just send me a pm and I will refund.

So yeah, I should pick this story up again in May. I am kinda attached to it now, especially since I had just outlined Arc 2.

One more thing, I haven't caught up on all the comments and stuff yet either, so expect very late replies if you have written questions, lol. Thanks for your patience and support, dear readers.

One more, more thing: BE SAFE. BE SAFE. BE SAFE.

With love,

Eneid
