So I've been slowly working on editing the story and realized that while I'm working through the document in word, it's easy to put new text in red but when I copy/paste it to the AFF editor, I have to go back through to ensure the changes are visible and new text is in red.

Because I'd rather spend my winter break (I don't go back to school till Jan 12) working on getting the 20 some odd chapters I've already written edited and get the story back on track, I've hidden the rest of the chapters I've already uploaded so I'm apologizing in advance for subscribers if you see notifications that the story has been updated but actually isn't. I'll be sure to make a note in the story feed on the side when I update.

Also I think before the end of the year I'll convert the red text back to normal text, and I will make a change to the foreward to tell people if they've read the story before editing began, to read from the beginning since there is quite a bit that I've added/changed in the first few chapters.

Also still hard at work on The Druid and the Wolf so if that story seems to be updated more than this one, I apologize. I've been going back and forth between the stories working on each storyline whenever the urge to work on one or the other hits me. I'm also being totally lazy and playing Elder Scrolls Online when I'm not catching up on my kdrama and anime lists (they're long, but not as long as my book list is).

To end this note, I want to thank each and every one of you who take the time to read the stories I write and even if you don't comment or don't subscribe, just the fact people read them makes me happy. When I first started writing FF back in 99, I never thought in my wildest dreams I'd still be doing it 15 years later!! So thank you for reading! (though I'd really really love it if you left feedback!)
