Greetings, I don't have a lot of readers but I wanted to give a quick update to explain why I haven't posted 3 weeks, in the event that anyone was wondering.

I had some "alarming" circumstances come up life, but fortunately I've gotten through them.

We survive.

The novel isn't dead but I have to do a lot more work to properly continue it. We got caught mid-arc and I was quite literally incapable of writing. I hope to still see you around, sorry for the false alarm here, I do plan to finish it.

Thanks, as ever, for reading :)
