To everyone who has followed Ardent Tears over the years; thank you. I am writing this update to announce that I have started releasing a much improved rewrite of Ardent Tears. As such, I am marking this version as finished and, while I'll be leaving it up for posterity, the story going forwards has a new home. With this rewrite, I have expanded on much of it and reworked elements that were lacking so it is worth going back and reading it.
The author's narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.
You can find the rewrite here or on Patreon.
