Hi all.

Sorry for the radio silence for so long on things, my life kind of went off the rails pretty hard last summer and I'm only now getting properly back in order (Got laid off, started a new job, had my old car totaled and had to fix up a new car, learned I've got scoliosis and am getting that treated, and starting to look into proper psychological testing and treatment, it's been a hectic time) and I've learned that, I can't keep writing this story. Main reason being, my writing style makes me put myself in the head space of the important/recurring characters and, between Curator and some others (Paul) it puts me in a very bad head space that isn't healthy. I do intend to keep writing, so there is something in the works on that front it just won't be this same story, or even setting, instead something wholly my own, not set in some one else's setting as one of my strongest suits is actually world building. Thank you all so much for your support on my writing so far, and sorry that I can't continue this one at the moment. In the future I may try to restart it, maybe without being so crazy with the characters, but that's not a given.

Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author.

If any one wants to 'pick up the mantle' as it were or use these characters and creatures I've introduced so far, please, feel free to reach out to me I'm more than happy to discuss such things with you, as, it's honestly quite flattering/makes me feel good that my creations can have such a lasting impact. Thank you all so much for your time, and, sorry if I've let you all down some how.
