Hey there, lovely readers!

First up, big news! Book Two has been through professional edits and is set to make a grand entrance on Amazon’s Kindle Unlimited come early August. Yay! However, there's a slight hiccup. Kindle Unlimited can be a tad possessive, like a dragon jealously guarding its treasure trove. So, regrettably, I'll have to withdraw this book from here (after it's done serializing, we have about a dozen more chapters to go) and hit pause on Royal Road.

Moreover, this hiatus will be a bit more prolonged. I've been juggling serializations here, elsewhere, and on Patreon, where I've unleashed another tale. Balancing various updates has been like playing chess in three dimensions, and in fact, I’ve been working at such a pace that I almost made myself ill. I’d LOVE to work more, but unfortunately my body just can’t keep up, so I need to prioritize my well-being before my stories start sounding like gibberish.

Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation.

So, here's the new game plan: new content will sprout up on Patreon and Amazon. If things ease up a bit, I'd be more than happy to hop back onto Royal Road.
