Boy do I hate accidentally writing myself into corners because of my poor planning. I have slightly edited Volume One to line up with what has been written for Volume Two. I would also like to point out that while the use of the word "Volume" implies a significant amount of writing, these are diary entries, Mathew has split up his Diary into the last section of his first journal, the only part of it applicable to his tale, and the subsequent next journal, which is labeled volume 2. volume 1 is merely meant to be an introduction, volume 2 is where the real meat and potatoes emerge. as I believe I have said before, volume 2 is meant to be much bigger and more complex than volume 1, and volume 3 will be even bigger than volume 2.

Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.

I will leave the old chapters for about a month, for old time's sake, before hiding them, so if you haven't read those, you can ignore them, but if you have, please read the reupload. (also it helps get my viewer numbers up, so that also helps). I have finished volume 2 and will begin uploading it soon: at the lastest I will start uploads on October 1st, but at the earliest, I may start in July. Change of plans, we start in May

thank you all for reading, seeing that number slowly tick up has filled me with great happiness, and I hope you enjoyed this little trip into the writing process for me
