Thank you, everyone who has read Masters of Shadow and Light up to this point! If you only clicked on 'latest chapter', make sure to go back and read Chapter 62 as well, it went up right before this one did! All chapters of Masters of Shadow and Light are now live here on RoyalRoad, with no more posted for Patrons (until Book 2)!

For those of you who don't know, Masters of Shadow and Light was only originally planned to take us through Kieran's initial training, making friends, getting a boyfriend, and finding out whether or not he got the job. As I wrote it, however, I added in smaller things here and there which necessitates continuing the story past that.

This actually wasn't my first attempt at writing MSL, it was my third, just the first one that was public. More than a year went into planning stuff for Book 1. Book 2 contains stuff that doesn't have that much development, as well as me writing scenes of a variety I've never really done before, and so need to work on and grow more comfortable with writing.

Because of that, and the need to finish fleshing out stuff for Book 2, Masters of Shadow and Light will go on break until I am comfortable enough with how much of Book 2 is written to begin posting it. I'm not sure when that will happen, but thank you for reading Book 1, everyone! I've been doing some work on it here and there, and do have an internal ETA, but I've learned not to give those because I almost always miss them, and that just disappoints readers.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

Don't forget to give the story a Follow so that you can get updated when Book 2 resumes! I know at least one user has been using another site to get to my story - you can make a RoyalRoad account, click on Follow (on the story's main page), and then go to your Follows on here to see all stories you've Followed, sorted by the latest updated! You can also set it to send you an email notification for updates for a story there as well!

If you made it this far and enjoyed the story (it would be strange if you got this far and didn't), please remember to also Rate and/or Review the story to show that enjoyment of it! Also don't forget to do the anonymous survey in the post-chapter note if you haven't already and want to give that sort of contribution towards future characters and works!

Book 2 will get into Kieran settling into his new job, continuing to adjust to having friends and a boyfriend, and finally, the reason behind Sivalshi's sudden migration into the Frost Zone may come to light...
