Hey Readers!

  I wanted to share this quick update, mostly because I've been thinking about how to make supporting the story feel more worth it for those of you who already do, and for those still considering it.

  I'm going to be expanding Patreon Early Access from 5 Chapters ahead to 10 Chapters!!!

  That means that if you're a Patreon, you'll skip the wait and be able to read way further ahead in the story than public releases. More room to binge, more insight into upcoming arcs and full access to the exclusive stories on side characters like Midas, Veyra and Hollow.

  My Patreon page allows for Free members if you'd like to just receive notifications and be included in announcements.

  This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.

  Another reason for this sudden change is that I need to give myself a bit more breathing room to build a proper buffer on chapters again and keep the quality of the story up to where it needs to be. I feel that the quality I'm after can only be achieved when I'm not needing to rush chapters after long working days. For someone working long retail hours, it's beginning to feel impossible to manage both. For that purpose, the schedule for chapters will be adjusted to Monday, Wednesday and Saturday.

  I really appreciate how active the support and comments have been with the series and plan to grow this series even more than where it is now. So thank you to all those who have been reading this far!

  If you enjoy the story and want to skip the wait, Patreon will now be the best place to do that. And if you're here just for the occasional read and possible comment, I thank you all the same. I'm glad you're reading the story at all XD

  The chapters will be returning Wednesday 14/01/2026 under the new schedule. With an announcement for all members on Patreon. Hope to see you there!

  Keep reading.

  For some reason, I'm getting a weird glitch with the posting function. So I'll have to delay the release for Saturday 17/01/2025

  I'm sorry for the delay and appreciate everyone's patience and support on this matter.
