The new version is up, with a prologue and the first chapter.

Thanks again to everyone who didn't bother removing this from your follow pages. I promise this time it will go all the way to the end - I have the plot completely fixed up and planned out. There are a lot of changes but also a lot that's the same or close enough that there's the potential for a lot of spoilers, so please be careful about not commenting on anything that hasn't come up yet in the new version.

This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there.

This will be the last update to this old version, although once we're fully past the point where this one stopped I might go back and un-hide the old chapters in case anyone wants to compare the two and see what changed. Thanks again everyone!
