My Dear Readers,
I am writing this note with a heart full of both gratitude and apology. I must announce a brief hiatus in our regular schedule. The next chapter will be moving to a release date of October 10th.
I am currently dedicating this time to a necessary and intensive revision of the upcoming arc. My foremost goal is to ensure the quality and coherence of the story you've so generously invested in, and that requires my undivided attention for these next few days. I am deeply sorry for this interruption to our rhythm.
This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.
I know all too well the unique ache of waiting for a story's next page. The silence between chapters can feel long, and for that, I sincerely apologize.
However, if the halls of Aethelgard are calling you too strongly to wait, there is a path for you.
For those who wish to journey ahead, you are hereby granted special dispensation.
You can always reach out to me directly via DM to talk about the story, and for the truly eager, my Patreon archives hold a significant backlog of future chapters, available immediately. It is a way to continue the journey without pause and to support the story's creation directly.
Whether you choose to wait or to venture ahead, your presence here is what gives this world its breath. Thank you for your incredible patience and understanding.
With sincere thanks,
Han Yoga
