Anouncement
First of all, thanks to all those who messaged me with encouraging words and assurance. Knowing our work has given you (the readers) much pleasure and enjoyment in reading our story is what we writers strive for.
Please forgive me for my very long, overdue break as I experienced something most writers do, writer's block with a dash of burnout due to work. Though I'm more accustomed now to maintaining my schedule, I'll still probably update at a more mellow pace than I did back then to avoid it from happening again. As the saying goes, slow and steady wins the race.
Still, I honestly think what happened is for the better as I can say with complete confidence that I have grown and improved not only as a writer but as an overall better individual in the past couple of months I've been away. I also started learning to use Grammarly so proofreading, which has always been a big problem in the past for me (as English is not my native language) is now easier to do.
Ps: I have also edited and proofread all the past chapters. Credits to Tomi for all his help (a kind reader of mine from Royal Road. He basically did all the work) and added tweaks to some of the chapters for a better flow of the story.
Also added a bunch of artwork (more than 50) in different chapters for a more immersive reading. So be sure to check out the previous chapters.
